The telenovela Rebelde aired almost 10 years ago, but its fans are not forgiving Christopher Von Uckermann's character's bad-boy behavior on the show.
The mean tweets have gotten so bad that the 29-year-old singer is reaching out to former co-star Dulce María, who played his love interest.
"@DulceMaria let's stop feeding the root of this issue of vondys. Just the way I do with those that follow me. I do not support bullying. Thank you," tweeted Von Uckermann.
"Vondys" are the fans of Christopher and Dulce María as a couple in the novela.
@DulceMaria Dejemos de alimentar esta cuestión de vondys de raiz.

Asi como yo lo hago con los que me siguen.
No apoyo el bullying.
Gracias.
Dulce María replied to the tweet, "Honestly it's sad and disappointing that you all use [Twitter] to insult and hurt, you all know that this was only a telenovela, please stop it."

RBD, a band with the most prominent cast members of the show, was formed after the telenovela's success. The group went on to be a worldwide success between 2004 and 2009.
In 2007, Von Uckermann had a brief relationship with bandmate Anahí. Then in 2011, rumors circled that he had more than a platonic relationship with Dulce María.
Unfortunately, Dulce María recently lost a very special fan to cancer. She made a moving tribute on her Twitter account to remember the strength of Mayrita.
It seems this Twitter feud was short-lived and has reached its end, at least for now.
