These Stars Really Do Not Like Melania Trump
Countless celebrities have spoken out against President Donald Trump, but more and more are making their opinions on the first lady known as well. These are the stars who really don’t like Melania Trump, and they don’t care who knows it.

Back during the 2016 election, Lady Gaga spoke out against Melania. The future first lady had been vocalizing her intention to fight back against bullying — Gaga was quick to point out the hypocrisy.
“@MELANIATRUMP to say u will stand for ‘anti-bullying’ is hypocrisy. Your husband is 1 of the most notorious bullies we have ever witnessed,” tweeted an angry Gaga. She made sure to urge her followers to vote for Hillary.

It’s no surprise that The View co-host, Joy Behar, is adamantly against Trump and his politics, but Behar isn’t a fan of Melania’s, either. When she was a guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Meyers asked her about her thoughts on Melania, whether she feels sorry for her or whether we should be judging her like we do anyone else with free will.
“I feel sorry for her,” she replied. “She had to sleep with him once. At least once she did. And then when she was in New York and we had to pay a million dollars a day to keep her here because she doesn’t want to sleep with him [at the White House], we have to pay for that. I didn’t like that.”

When Minaj performed at the Barclays Center Tidal X: 1015, she shared her thoughts about the current president and his wife.
She said,”Barack needed Michelle, b—h … And Bill needed a mother[bleeping] Hillary, b—h. You better pray to God you don’t get stuck with a mother[bleeping] Melania. You want brainless b—hes to stroke your mother[bleeping] ego? [Bleep] you!”

Dan Savage shared his thoughts on the first lady on his podcast, Savage Love. He accused those on the left who feel sympathetic towards Melania of only doing so only because of her looks.
“I’m not alone in loathing Donald Trump’s third wife — she’s married to a misogynist after all. Odds are good her husband hates her too,” he said. “But there are some folks on the left who not only don’t hate her, they view her as some sort of sympathetic figure. The pretty princess in the tower locked up by the orange ogre with the bad combover, a princess desperately blinking out distress signals during swearing-in ceremonies and inaugural balls.”
5. Kathy Griffin

Back when Griffin lost her job and her upcoming stand-up tour dates due to a photo of herself holding what was alluded to be the president’s head, Melania made some remarks questioning Griffin’s mental health.
Griffin’s response: “I think there’s a lot of people in this administration that seem, like, super nuts, and I think it’s weird that you guys or anybody’s acting like they’re not.”
6. Chelsea Handler

Another outspoken enemy of the first family is Chelsea Handler. She’s said that she won’t interview the first lady on her show because “she can barely speak English,” she told Variety at the Sundance Film Festival.
“I don’t respect either one of those people,” she added.
7. Helen Mirren thinks Melania can take Trump down

Mirren has never been afraid to speak her mind. In an interview with Allure, the actress shared her thoughts on the first family, including her thoughts on what Melania is capable of.
“You look at old Mel there, and she is one of the most powerful women in the world because she could take him down. She almost did that with the hand,” she said, referring to when Melania swatted Trump’s hand away as he attempted to hold hands.
