Megyn Kelly rips into Jennifer Aniston for 'masquerading as a protector of women' as she lists the times the Hollywood megastar failed to stand up for the sisterhood
Megyn Kelly listed every way in which Hollywood superstar Jennifer Aniston has betrayed women in a blistering rant.
Aniston inserted herself into the 2024 presidential election when she criticized JD Vance's statement that 'childless cat ladies' were running the country.
Vance shot back at the Friends star in an interview with the former Fox News anchor Kelly and now the host is getting into the mix, slamming Aniston for what she sees as the actress' own anti-woman behavior.
Kelly first hit at Aniston for lying that Vance opposed IVF before listing ways in which she'd betrayed her gender by saying nothing about the safety and health of women's sports.
'What has she said about the woman who got her faced punched out by the man in the boxing ring? ZERO.'
Megyn Kelly listed every way in which Hollywood superstar Jennifer Aniston has betrayed women in a blistering rant
Aniston inserted herself into the 2024 presidential election when she criticized JD Vance's statement that 'childless cat ladies' were running the country
Kelly was referring to Algerian Olympic boxer Imane Khelif, who was competing in the women's welterweight category and claimed a gold medal out in Paris despite the fierce controversy surrounding her gender that dominated headlines throughout the Games.
Khelif was cleared to compete at the Olympics just one year after being thrown out of the World Boxing Championships for allegedly failing tests which proved she has male 'XY' chromosomes, a decision which sparked outrage across the globe.
However, the International Boxing Association - the organization which sanctions the world championships - has never put forward any scientific evidence to support its claims.
Despite being born a female, Khelif was subjected to unproven accusations and abuse throughout the Olympics.
Kelly continued, asking host Shawn Ryan: 'What has she said about Payton McNabb, who's suffering permanent nerve damage and brain damage from getting hit so hard in the face and the head by that volleyball player in North Carolina? NOTHING'.
McNabb was 17 when a ball spiked by a trans opponent with force struck her in the face, threw her to the ground and shut off her consciousness.
The 5ft 11in trans player cackled in delight, Ms McNabb said, after sending her to the floor. As did other players in the opposite team.
The former NBC News host listed one more point against Aniston: 'What's she say about that girl who got all of her teeth knocked out in a field hockey game by a boy pretending to be a girl? ZERO'.

Kelly first slammed Aniston for saying that Vance opposed IVF before listing ways in which she'd betrayed her gender by saying nothing about the safety and health of women's sports, like Imane Khelif, the female Algerian boxer won gold despite being at the center of fierce controversy over her gender
Kelly is referring to the 2023 incident between two varsity teams at Swampscott High School and Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School, with a male hockey player causing horrendous facial injuries to a female opponent.
Footage of the horror accident saw the woman collapse and scream in agony after the ball hit her face, with the male player's participation sparking backlash despite being allowed under Massachusetts law.
In this case, the male player can play field hockey in the women's team because it is traditionally a female sport.
Kelly wrapped her rant by chastising Aniston for caring about what she sees as a minor issue compared to what these women have been through.
So I don't give a s--- what she thinks about JD Vance and childless cat ladies. She masquerades as some protector of women, she's quite the contrary. She's never stood up on any of these issues? This is the one she comes out on? You don't want childless cat ladies to be offended? That's where you're gonna' plant your flag?'
Republican VP candidate Vance hit back at Aniston in July after she slammed him over his resurfaced complaint about 'childless cat ladies' running the country.
Vance appeared on The Megyn Kelly Show on Friday to defend the anti-feline statement made in 2021 - which has spawned massive backlash from cat lovers across the country.
The Ohio senator claimed that women without kids don't have a 'direct stake' in the future of America, saying they are 'miserable at their own lives and their choices'.
Kelly called out Aniston for being silent on Payton McNabb, now 19 years old and from North Carolina, had her sporting career cut short after she was hit by a ball traveling at 70mph that was hit by a transgender athlete
Kelly also referred to the 2023 incident between two varsity teams at Swampscott High School and Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School, with a male hockey player causing horrendous facial injuries to a female opponent. She pointed out Aniston said nothing
His comments provoked the ire of Aniston, 55, who said: 'Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day,' she said. 'I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.'
In response, Vance said: 'That’s disgusting because my daughter is 2 years old.'
'And second of all, if she had fertility problems, as I said in that speech, I would try everything I could to try to help her because I believe families and babies are a good thing,' he added.
The resurrected footage saw Vance criticizing childless women such as Kamala Harris while speaking to Tucker Carlson on Fox News.
In the clip, Vance slammed the prospect of turning the country over to childless women.
He said: 'I'm saying that we are effectively run in this country via the Democrats by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and they choices they made so they want to make the rest of the country miserable too.
'It's just a basic fact. You look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC, the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children.
'How does it make any sense that we have turned our country over to people that don't have any stake in it?'
Vance appeared on The Megyn Kelly Show in July to defend his comments that he made to Fox in 2021 that has been recirculating online
Aniston wasn't the only person upset by Vance's remarks. Democratic women across the country immediately ran to Harris' defense, launching a Childless Cat Ladies for Kamala meme.
During his appearance on Kelly's show, Vance responded: 'Obviously, it was a sarcastic comment. I've got nothing against cats, I've got nothing against dogs, I've got one dog at home, and I love him.
'But look, people are focusing so much on the sarcasm and not on the substance of what I actually said.'
Vance claimed that both liberal and conservative women responded to the cat comments by saying they were 'glad' he pointed out there's 'something profoundly anti-family in our public policy.'
He tried to pin that on Democrats' policies.
'We have to ask ourselves, Why do we have masking of toddlers years after the pandemic ended?' he mused.
Vance also claimed that the Harris campaign came out against the extension of the child tax credit.
'Why do we have the Harris campaign coming out this very morning and saying that we should not have the child tax credit which lowers tax rates for parents of young children?' the VP hopeful said. That claim appears to be false.
The Biden administration's current position is that the White House is 'committed to restoring the American Rescue Plan's critical expansion of the Child Tax Credit to lift up all American families and children.'
Vance voted against the Democrat-led Right to IVF Act last month, though was supportive of a GOP-sponsored bill, the IVF Protection Act, which would strip states of Medicaid funding if they barred IVF treatments, though would allow for some restrictions.
During his Q&A with Kelly, Vance explained that he was for IVF within reason.
'I think we have to protect the rights of Christian hospitals to operate the way that they want to operate,' he said. 'But of course, that's totally consistent with promoting fertility treatments for parents who need it.'
