After Kirstie Alley's Death, the Star's 'Disrespectful,' 'Heartless' Condolence Message to Stephen Hawking Emerged on Twitter

Kirstie Alley's death has reportedly prompted many Twitter users to share the actress' "heartless" condolence message to Stephen Hawking.

According to Daily Mail, Alley's own condolence tweet to Hawking: "You had a good go at it... thanks for your input," emerged on Twitter right after her death was announced.

Many netizens tweeted "RIP Kirstie Alley" before sharing the phrase on Monday, while some just repeated the exact quote.

There was also a netizen who tweeted: "Stephen Hawking meeting Kirstie Alley at the pearly gates all like 'hey girl, you had a good go at it... thanks for your input'."

Alley shared the phrase after Hawking, a renowned theoretical physicist, passed in 2018 following a lengthy ALS battle. After Hawking's passing, many celebrities, public figures, and civilians tweeted condolences and fond memories and expressed gratitude for his contributions to the world.

However, the actress tweeted the phrase, which many deemed to be disrespectful and in a "heartless" tone, and she received backlash for it. The "Scream Queens" star's tweet was deleted. However, the screenshots remain.
