Former Gossip Girl star Michelle Trachtenberg, known for portraying Georgina Sparks on the hit series, has sparked concern for her well-being after sharing new photos.
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum addressed worried fans who claimed she looked "sick" in recent selfies she uploaded, including one alongside Spy Kids sensation Alexa PenaVega, assuring fans that she is doing just fine going into 2024.
Trachtenberg recently spent time with 'Spy Kids' star Alexa PenaVega.
Some social media users questioned if she had an underlying health issue or had gone under the knife after seeing her latest pics.
"I've received several comments recently about my appearance," she captioned one snap showing off the new bright pink streaks in her hair, RadarOnline.com has learned. "I have never had plastic surgery I am happy and healthy. Check yourself haters."
Despite her pushback, some social media users stood by their concerns and said they could no longer recognize her. "Your photos clearly show a woman who has lost weight, had yellowed eyes, is losing her hair, and who appears generally unwell," one wrote.

When another follower commented that she appeared "sick" to the snap of her and PenaVega getting their hair done together at the salon, the 17 Again star said the remarks were uncalled for.
"Did you lose a calendar and not realize I'm not 14. I'm 38. How sad for you to leave such a comment," Trachtenberg replied. The fan insisted she was not trolling the star and was just concerned over her complexion and apparent hair loss.
"It has nothing to do with ur age," they explained. "Sorry if I offended u it was not my [intention]."
