Chris Hemsworth slams trolls targeting 'The Voice' star: 'Cowards'

Chris Hemsworth has hit back at online trolls who targeted The Voice singer Sean Millis, calling them 'cowards' for attacking Sean online.

Sean, 22, who has a rare genetic disorder, uploaded an Instagram video earlier this week, thanking his fans for their support and saying he tries to ignore the more 'hurtful' comments about his appearance.

“I had the best time in the UK and it was beautiful meeting everyone. I want to say thank you so much for all the love that you’ve shown,” he said.

“I see the hurtful comments but I just try to ignore it and focus on the positives, never give up, keep doing what you love and I can't wait to see you guys in the shows in April."

Sean's message got a lot of support, with Chris Hemsworth leaving a lengthy message.

"Hey mate, you're a champion, keep spreading the love and positive energy. Let me ask you this, how many of those people who throw hurtful comments your way have you ever met in person? I bet not many!" he started the comment with.

"Because most of them hide under a rock or a blocked account with all the other cowards who are afraid to ever be vulnerable and put themselves out there because they’re afraid of being rejected themselves so they attack the world before it attacks them. What a lonely existence that must be. Don’t even look at that rubbish mate, don’t even give them that satisfaction.

Chris' comment continued, encouraging people to practice kindness.

"People talk about being brave and so on, but for me personally that’s a complex phrasing with a myriad of interpretations. What I prefer and find universally unquestionable is kindness. Pure and simple kindness. Did you know that by being part of a simple act of kindness we can positively change our brain by boosting levels of serotonin and dopamine. Our bodies literally have a reward system inbuilt for being kind to others, and hey get this, the recipient of a kind act also receives a boost of oxytocin, dopamine and serotonin as does an observer of that action!

"Pretty simple formula for a happy life but man do we complicate it at times. You, my friend, are one incredibly kind soul and I thank you for that, keep it up!"

'Damn Thor, well said'

Fans were quick to thank Chris for his response and echoed his comments.

"Sean is a rising star and anyone who belittles are the ones who have self issues and try to reflect their issues onto others! Chris, you are a legend! Much love to you and Sean," one person commented.

"That is beautifully said, it is so true that we are far more blessed to give than to receive!" another person said, with another agreeing. "Damn Thor, well said," they wrote.
