Bob Saget Defends TV Daughter Candace Cameron Bure Against Internet Trolls

Saget said Bure is "the opposite of fake."

Bure was a guest on the Apr. 12 episode of Saget's podcast, Bob Saget's Here For You. They talked about their 30-plus-year friendship and Bure's current career as a Hallmark Christmas movie star.

As reported by People, during the episode, Bure said, "I'm going to ask you to talk about me for a second. For those people that think that because I am a happy, positive person, that I must be a fake person, would you say that that's true or false?"

"You're the opposite of fake," Saget responded. "And I'm sorry—you're perky sometimes. What's wrong with being perky?"

Like Bure, her Full House co-stars also grew up in the spotlight. Read more about their experience in How Mary-Kate & Ashley Stopped Elizabeth Olsen From Being a Child Star.

Bure explained that certain online comments get to her.

Bure told Saget that a lot of the comments she receives online don't bother her, but the ones about her seeming too happy or "fake" do.

"I only ask that because sometimes you read comments, and most of them, they roll off my back," she said. "But when people are annoyed at me that I'm such a happy person… I was like, let someone speak into this that's known me since I was nine years old."

Saget said, "You're a positive person. So if you're perky, it's because you're excited, and/or you've had a lot of caffeine. That's what people should know—there's nothing fake about you." Earlier in the interview, Saget commented on Bure being a long-time caffeine drinker. "Once you hit being a teenager, you had to have your coffee. You did not wake up well."

The actor slammed followers who made fun of a photo of her family.

On Jan. 2, Bure shared a photo of herself, her husband Valeri Bure, and their three adult children, Natasha, Lev, and Maksim, to mark the new year. But, because two of her children, Natasha and Lev, decided to go with serious poses for the photo that don't match up with the smiling faces of the other family members, some people left comments making fun of the picture.

Bure responded in a comment of her own, "Wow- I post a family photo and you all find everything you don't like about it or can make fun of. Do better than that. Please." The 45-year-old actor also wrote a lengthy statement about the comments she received on Facebook. "Shame on you. It doesn't matter if you're 10 or 90 years old, rude is rude," it read, in part.

She calls people out because they don't realize they're being "haters."

In a recent interview with People, Bure talked about responding to negative comments and explained that she does it for the people who don't understand that what they're doing affects her.

"I do let a lot of it go—the majority," she said, "but when there's so many comments I think that's when you have to stand up for yourself. So of course we can 'ignore the haters,' but when there are people that are making jokes thinking it's in good fun, they're not thinking they're being hateful, so I wouldn't call them haters." She added, "We have to realize and let people know that there's real people and feelings behind a computer screen or a phone, so I think standing up for yourself is always appropriate."
