When the Food Network announced last month that Ayesha Curry would be getting her own cooking show, the Internet responded with some pretty hurtful memes.

Most of the memes were sparked from Curry’s comments on Twitter, advocating for ‘classy’ fashion and not ‘barely’ wearing clothes like other women.

During an interview with ESSENCE, Curry spoke out about the memes and admitted that she didn’t understand where the hate was coming from.

“It just doesn’t make sense to me,” she told the magazine. “I wonder why people are so hateful sometimes. I just don’t get it. I want people to know these memes aren’t coming from me and I didn’t endorse them. I have a feeling whoever is making them is mostly men trying to pin women against each other and that’s something I don’t stand for, especially with us Black women. I just wish we could support each other a little bit more. I want everybody to succeed.”
