Several fans dig Palmer's new "fierce" look, but some followers actually miss the old Keke.

For example:

Obviously, the "Keep It Movin" songstress did not take that as a compliment. Instead, she totally blasted the online hater:

kekepalmer: "@_desstaaany you WISH I was a THOT is what you meant to say. You don't even know me, nor are you in my panties so how do you know what's going on in them? You sound like a class hater, stop worrying about me and worry about YOU. 'I miss the old you' but you've never known me tho..."

Intense... but very true!

Just because Palmer "sexified" her look a bit, doesn't mean those who disapprove have the right to deem her a thot (aka - "that hoe over there"). Nicki Minaj probably knows the feeling...

Well, the bitter fan didn't stop there!

_desstaaany: "Lol you took the time out of your day to answer me back because I stated my thoughts on you. As a fan since I was 6, keeping up with you. You being a role model to me or use to yes I would like to say I knew the person I used to admire. I don't anymore so it's okay. And thanks for tellming me to worry about myself because I do ; ) @kekepalmer."

Woah.

And Palmer had a lot more to say about the constant criticism:

Meanwhile, rumors suggest that Palmer's now dating up-and-coming hip-hop crooner, August Alsina.

Looks like the beloved "childhood" star is officially back in the Hollywood limelight!

Do MstarsNews readers agree with Palmer's heated Instagram comeback?
