Celebrity chef Colin Fassnidge has hit back at trolls after keyboard warriors attacked him for having ‘greasy hair’.
The 52-year-old My Kitchen Rules star has shared an expletive-ridden takedown of his critics, who slammed him for looking ‘old’ and being overweight.
‘Thought of the day,’ Colin began in the clip, which has attracted 3.1K likes.
‘So I got locked out of Facebook a few years ago, got back in, f**k knows why,’ the Irish-born restaurateur continued.
‘The comments, middle-aged privileged white people who are just nasty and bored, the comments guys, f**k that, it’s going on, sweet baby.’

Colin then appeared to quote some of the vile messages he has received on the platform.
He said: ‘Jesus, “your hair’s greasy, you’re fat, you’re looking old”.’
Colin also revealed that Facebook users have taken shots at his recent partnership with Manu Feildel and their popular Channel Seven travel series, Off the Grid with Colin and Manu.
‘”The show’s sh*t, you’re sh*t, your food sh*t”‘, Colin said and added, ‘Mate, some of these people need a good dentist and a bit of moisturiser.’
Filmed while the reality star was out for a walk, Colin, with just a slight grey in his black beard, looked fit and healthy in the clip.
Colin’s post attracted many messages of support from his followers.
‘You are the best,’ said one, while another responded, ‘Love you! Love your cooking! And you look amazing!’
A third person offered some advice, ‘F**k ’em, mate.’

Still, the post attracted some negative comments, with one person appearing to mock the kitchen guru’s anger.
‘Your hair’s greasy, and you’re just s**t lol… Grumpy old fart.’
The video has attracted 194K views since it dropped on Tuesday.
It comes after Colin was charged with driving under the influence of cocaine when he was stopped for drug and alcohol testing on November 8.
Police from Traffic and Highway Patrol Command conducted the test on the TV presenter at around 3.20pm while he was driving a grey ute on Malabar Road in South Maroubra.
The test allegedly returned a positive result for cocaine.
Appearing in court last month, Magistrate Jacqueline Milledge criticised the celebrity for using illicit substances despite their negative impact on the wider community.
She reminded the chef that many people look to him to lift their spirits and warned him not to use cocaine as a ‘release valve’ for his own struggles.
‘You’ve got a lot to lose and when you lose, so does everyone else who’s invested in you,’ the magistrate said.
She declined to record a conviction and sentenced Fassnidge to a two-year good behaviour bond, noting the impact of his actions on his life and family.
This was the second time the TV star had been before the court for the same matter after copping a fine for the same offence in 2022.
Colin married his long-term ladylove, Jane Hyland in 2006 and the pair share two daughters, Lily and Maeve.
