Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez's Thanksgiving post receives criticism, here's why
"Lady is definitely ready for #Thanksgiving! We have so much to be grateful for and are excited to be heading home to spend time with family," wrote Alex.
Celebrity couple Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were trolled on Thursday for sharing a Thanksgiving post. Why, you may wonder? Well, Alex took to his Instagram handle to share a picture of Lopez and their pet dog travelling in what looked like a private aircraft days on Tuesday.
"Lady is definitely ready for #Thanksgiving! We have so much to be grateful for and are excited to be heading home to spend time with family. What are your holiday plans?," Rodriguez captioned the picture. But this didn't go down well with the fans. One user wrote, "People are really really struggling. Maybe don't post your enormous wealth on a private plane with Hermes blankets. Compassion is all you need right now." [sic]
Another wrote, "Really? The CDC has recommended that no one travel for thanksgiving. And doctors are pleading with us to keep thanksgiving with just our immediate household for one year. I am surprised to see someone with a platform like yours posting this. It is hard for those of us who are sacrificing this year to see this. Sending all love and good health." The other said, "People lost their jobs...maybe stop posting your private jet. We get it...You're rich." [sic]
