Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Over the weekend, Lisa posted a pic of herself posing with her family in front of a private jet, which grabbed some negative attention. Hochstein's former co-star Joanna Krupa tweeted, "All those A holes posting and showing off w their private jets in Miami, why don't u offer help families and animals that can't get out? Otherwise stop posting and showing off when people and animals are being left behind during this catastrophic hurricane. Idiots !”
In response to the “ignorant people leaving nasty comments,” Lisa wrote, "we were not the only ones in this plane. Every seat was occupied and my son had to sit in my lap. EVERYONE IS POSTING ON SM about how they escaped! This happens to be mine and I don't need to apologize or hide to ANYONE ABOUT HOW WE DO SO.”
“Anyone with nasty comments needs to back off get off my page and worry about yourself and how you can help instead if wasting your energy on attacking me," she went on. "And to the other commenters about me 'abandoning' my friends in my house 🙄🙄🙄🙄 they weren't any guests that happened to just be there already, they are friends who just didn't have a proper safe place to stay who live in Miami and I figured mine would be safer for them so I offered for them to come on over!”
ABC News reports that Irma has killed at least 12 people and left about 6.7 million people without power in U.S. The natural disaster also left a million residents of Puerto Rico without power, has killed at least two dozen in the Caribbean and stranded many in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
