Welcome to Mamamia Rogue’s Shocker, Hero and Whinger of the Week.
Here’s how it works: Each week, we pick the biggest Shocker, Hero and Whinger from the last seven days. Shocker is whatever moment or person left our jaws on the floor. Hero is whoever won the week by being flat out amazing. And whinger? Well, that’s pretty much just someone who has had a major sooky-la-la moment.

Whinger of the week goes to…
Dana Brunetti, Hollywood producer and apparent fat-shamer. See, Dana was wearing his cranky pants on his Delta flight recently, and sent out this charming tweet:
Hey @DanaBrunetti, if you’re going to be a twat, don’t put it on Twitter.
Get a grip.
