Julie Andrews has sparked fresh concern among fans after appearing in a rare public video supporting Parkinson’s disease research, with cruel online trolls mocking the Hollywood icon’s appearance and fueling baseless fears over her health.

The Oscar-winning star of Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music – who reached 90 in October – appeared in a recorded message for the World Parkinson’s Congress, which was shared online by the World Parkinson Coalition.

Julie Andrews revealed helicopter downdrafts repeatedly knocked her down while filming the opening of 'The Sound of Music.'

Andrews addressed attendees and spoke emotionally about the devastating impact of the neurological condition.

But shortly after the video was released, social media users began posting vicious comments about the actress’ appearance, with some claiming she looked as though she had “waxen, corpse’s stretched skin” and others suggesting she was “only being held together by makeup.”
