As Dorien Corey said in Paris is Burning, "Shade is I don't tell you you're ugly, but I don't have to tell you because you know you're ugly." Throwing shade successfully is a true art, and there is now an entire Instagram gallery devoted to those who throw shade best.
The Art of Shade, an account started earlier this year, is the account we never knew we needed. Some of the most well-known diva shade-throwers are included on the page, like RuPaul, Mariah Carey, Prince, and the Kardashians. There are a few surprises thrown in, like President Obama dissing Kendall Jenner at the White House Correspondent's Dinner, or Martha Stewart throwing shade at Oprah for being too busy to visit her.
Follow the Art of Shade for constant updates on who has thrown shade and who has lamentably received it.
