Claudia Conway appeared during an episode of 'American Idol' Hollywood Week on Sunday night (March 21) and once again her performance was overshadowed by fans spewing hate against her mother Kellyanne. Donald Trump's former counselor, Kellyanne isn't a hit with the people and they've been taking digs at her all the time.

The hatred against her eclipsed her daughter Claudia's performance as Kellyanne appeared to cheer her on when she cleared the genre round during Hollywood week. Kellyanne was seen cheering loud as her daughter advanced further and seeing the former political consultant on TV didn't sit down well with the audiences.

Claudia as well isn't a darling of fans of the show as they believe there were much better singers who didn't a chance to move ahead in the show. A lot of them alleged that Claudia was invited on the show for the drama surrounding her relationship with Kellyanne and many said 'Idol' exploited her for ratings. Claudia had pointed fingers at Kellyanne saying her job had ruined her life and was allegedly considering emancipation because of "trauma and abuse."

Kellyanne is also believed to have allegedly posted a topless photo of her 16-year-old daughter on her Twitter page in January using the Fleets feature. Claudia had said at the time, “I’m assuming my mom took a picture of it to use against me one day and then somebody hacked her or something. I’m literally at a loss for words. If you see it, report it," according to a Variety report. She later said,  “nobody would ever have any photo like that, ever. So, Kellyanne, you’re going to f*cking jail.”

Claudia will once again be seen on another episode of 'Idol' where she will compete to advance to the Top 24. Kellyanne is expected to be seen again to cheer her daughter and before she does, here's a look at how fans reacted to the mother-daughter duo previously. "Moving her on because of her celebrity family status will backfire and for no one more than Claudia when the truth comes. She's not a very good singer and I wish it were not so but it is what it is. Kellyanne screws her daughter once again. #AmericanIdol @KellyannePolls," wrote a fan.

"#AmericanIdol was horrible before, this just made it worse. This show deserves to be shut down. Giving Kellyanne a platform is bad enough but letting Claudia through to the next round was even worse." Another comment read, "@AmericanIdol tuning out of this season until Claudia & Mom Conaway has departed. Shameless hustle by the Producers & Conaway camp. #AmericanIdol. Another fan wrote, "It’ll be fascinating to try and see Claudia Conway in the duet portion tomorrow. Having to work with someone else and not be the center of attention. Probably with loonytunes Mom “helping” from the sidelines. Yikes. #AmericanIdol."
