The child actor tells those online bullies that rather than worrying about the gap between his teeth that can be fixed, they should be fixing their hearts.

AceShowbiz - "This Is Us" star Lonnie Chavis has a message for online bullies who made fun of the gap between his teeth. The child actor, who plays the young version of Randall Pearson on the popular NBC drama series, cleverly responded to those mean trolls via an Instagram video posted on Monday, June 25.

"I could get my gap fixed," Lonnie said in the clip. "Braces can fix this, but like, can you fix your heart, though? There are kids out there killing themselves just because of y'all hating and trolling and doing just crazy stuff. I mean, It's stupid. Is it fun? No. It hurts people. People kill themselves, and you're the one who's making them doing it. Fix your heart, though."

He continued his strong message for those who endure bullies like him, "For real. I'm happy that I can handle this. I can handle this. I'm not tripping. But there are kids out here. If y'all kids are watching this, don't trip. Be who you want to be. Do what you want to do. Do you. Be you. Believe in yourself."

He added in the caption, "PSA! Yes I have a gap in my teeth, that braces can fix when all my baby teeth fall out. I'm gonna keep on smiling though STOP TROLLING STOP BULLYING! Fix your heart! To all those being bullied or being trolled YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, YOU ARE AWESOME, and YOU MATTER! #FixYourHeart."

His wise message has since received positive responses from fellow Instagram users. "Blessings to you young man. Some people are not as wise as you are to know what you do," one wrote. "Mad respect you are handsome just the way you are I love your smile it brighten my day. Never change who you are for anyone."

Another commented, "You be you! Can't believe people were so mean to you. You're awesome!" Someone added, "You're so beautiful. Thank you for posting this for all to hear." One other simply wrote, "Love this Kid!!!!"

Lonnie plays one of the Pearson couple's three children on NBC's "This Is Us". He won an MTV Movie & TV Award in 2017 for most favorite tearjerker moment for his Karate scene with Milo Ventimiglia (Jack Pearson), sharing the trophy with his on-screen father.
