A FORMER Desperate Housewives star has clapped back at a critic who accused her of getting too much filler in her face.
Marcia Cross portrayed housewife Bree Van de Kamp on the ABC drama series from 2004 until 2012.
Now the 61-year-old actress has faced accusations of getting what fans have described as too much Botox after a new interview surfaced on social media.
The TV personality appeared on CBS Sunday morning last month where she spoke to the network about the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
Marcia wore a long-sleeved gold dress with a purple paisley pattern, paired with gold jewelry.
The soap opera star had her bright auburn locks styled straight and natural makeup done for the interview.

She opened up to the CBS anchors on her opinions regarding the strikes, saying: "It's long overdue. I am very sad that it's come to this because I just feel like you know it's so America, or maybe it's just the world.
"It's all about greed. You need to share the profits, people. That's how any industry works, you know, but we're not like that in America right?" Marcia explained.
The interviewer then asked the actress: "What about Desperate Housewives though? In terms of you all getting paid because now it's on streaming?"
The ABC star replied: "We don't get paid. Because there was no protection back then, we got paid handsomely, I'm very grateful for that. But as I've seen it be sold to Hulu, every single streaming service you can imagine, you know I'm not seeing -" she claimed.

Marcia added: "I'm still getting residuals if it's foreign or whatever, but it's very...It's robbery!
"I remember actually, I signed...I was shooting a pilot for something and I remember saying like 'well, where's the stuff about the streaming now?' and they're like 'oh well, there's nothing. You just have to sign.'
"Yes it seems like Tom Cruise and all these muckamucks make so much money, but most people no," she exclaimed.
CBS Mornings shared the interview clip on its Instagram profile with the caption: "'Desperate Housewives' actress @reallymarcia says the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes are 'long overdue,' adding that residuals, which she says used to help her pay rent early in her career, are not the same coming from streaming services: 'It’s robbery.'"
FAN ACCUSATIONS
But savage critics were much more focused on the Desperate Housewives star's appearance, several taking to the comments to accuse her of going overboard with Botox and filler.
"I completely agree but can't get over the way the face does not move at all," one admitted.
"Yikes Botox," a second agreed.
Others filled the comments with their own opinions about the strike, many slamming Marcia for complaining despite making millions on the former show.
MARCIA'S CLAP BACK
But the TV star did not sit idle amid the backlash, and she quickly clapped back with her own follow-up to the hate.
"Two responses. The first shallow. I have no botox in my face nor have i had a facelift. So I am sorry you don't like my face. I'm 61 and it moves how it moves," she scathed.
"The more important response is since you do not understand is that all actors pay is being cut to such an extent that people cannot afford to make any sort of living at it and I am quite sure you watch plenty of shows and wold like to continue to be entertained.

"Secondly, I said I was very grateful, but that does not mean that I think actors should not be paid for their work on streaming services. I understand you don't fully know how our industry works, but it saddens me that you would mischaracterize this fight for actors and writers.
"I do not need you to cry me a river, but there are too many out there that do deserve your sympathy and I stand by my union in our fight for fair wages. And All the best," she closed.
