The D\u2019Amelio sisters have found themselves at the center of internet controversy due to the latest episode of \u201cDinner with the D\u2019Amelio\u2019s,\u201d a YouTube series where the family sits down for dinner with a special guest. The November 16 episode of the YouTube show saw Charli D\u2019Amelio joke about being disappointed in not reaching 100 million followers in a year\u2019s time, which sparked outrage among fans who felt she was being \u201centitled.\u201d However, the spotlight has since shifted to Dixie, who flipped out and gagged after noticing Chef Aaron May had placed a snail on her plate. While it makes sense that not everyone would be jazzed about eating a slimy animal, the internet is not holding back in their criticism of the TikTok star, taking offense at her behavior toward a meal that had been carefully prepared for her. Although Chef May didn\u2019t speak about the drama initially, paparazzi caught up with the culinary pro on November 18, allowing him to explain his side of the situation. The chef clarified that it had been production\u2019s idea to sneak the snails onto Dixie and Charli\u2019s plates, which resulted in their over-the-top reactions \u2014 but he\u2019s not taking it personally. (Topic begins at 6:15) \u201cYou know, somebody on production thought it would be funny to feed Dixie and Charli snails,\u201d he explained. \u201cThey didn\u2019t take it the best. I love Dixie and Charli. I\u2019ve worked with them before, I\u2019m gonna work with them again. I think it\u2019s a little blown out of proportion.\u201d \u201cI would call it \u2018fake news,\u2019\u201d he said of the drama that unfolded after the episode went live. \u201cThose girls are the greatest. I love them. It was all fun and games.\u201d (Topic begins at 0:21) Dixie herself has issued an apology to Chef May and her fans over the matter, similarly clarifying that the entire ordeal was all in good fun and that she has no hard feelings toward her family chef over the snail incident. View this post on Instagram It seems that fans of the girls are now decrying the social media backlash that resulted from the video \u2014 which has since caused Charli D\u2019Amelio to lose over 500,000 followers on TikTok.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dixie D\u2019Amelio\u2019s chef speaks out after \u201cdisrespectful\u201d snail drama YouTube: The Hollywood Fix \/ The D&#8217;Amelio FamilyThe D\u2019Amelio family chef has spoken out after Dixie stirred up backlash online for turning down a snail on her plate, leading hordes of critics to call her out for purportedly \u201cdisrespectful\u201d behavior.
