Rumer Willis has had to defend herself from cruel trolls as she urged people to remember she is a "human being who has feelings".
The 35-year-old, who is the eldest daughter of Bruce Willis and his ex-wife Demi Moore, was slammed for compiling a list of her go-to items, which included a $60 (£49) water bottle and a $75 (£61) candle. After the list was unveiled, some people called her a "nepo baby", while others described it as "gross".
Taking to her Instagram Story, Rumer shared a video in which she said she was "really taken aback at the level of negativity and just trolling." She added: "I mean I know I should just come to expect this because it's just what people do and think it's okay to treat other people that way, but regardless of whether you like me or not, whether you think I've accomplished anything in my life or not, I'm also just a human being that has feelings."

"@rumerwillis you're such a beautiful, gorgeous soul inside and out. These people don’t like themselves. They’re so unhappy and disappointed with themselves that they can’t be happy for someone else. Keep being you! You’re perfect," one fan gushed.
Another said: "I love Rumer! She's such an inspiration and her picks are amazing," while a third person commented: "Glorious suggestions from an incredible and insightful human being."
