Megyn Kelly found a way to insult Jennifer Lopez during Donald Trumpâs victory rally, using their differing politics as an excuse to make a dig about Lopezâs divorce from Ben Affleck.
Lopez stumped for Kamala Harris at a Las Vegas rally in October, where she told the crowd that Trump âhas consistently worked to divide us. At Madison Square Garden, he reminded us who he really is and how he really feels.â In the wake of Harrisâ loss and Trumpâs inauguration, the right-wing host pounced on Lopezâs comments to launch an unhinged attack on the star.
âSpeaking of J. Lo, how happy are you [that] her candidate lost? Itâs so delightful,â Kelly said Sunday, adding that she felt âtwo inches taller, a pound thinner,â and happy her skin was like Lopezâs on the eve of Trumpâs inauguration. âThese Hollywood celebrities who get up there and try and tell us how to voteâreally?â she continued. âI mean like those celebrities who know nothing about anything.â
Kelly didnât leave it there, as she decided to attack Lopez more specifically. âAll J. Lo knows about what to do is ruin marriages. Sheâs an expert in that. Why did she have to try and ruin the country too?â she added. âSo goodbye J. Lo, it didnât work out for you.â
Lopez divorced Affleck last August and has been married three other times. Kelly also has one divorce in her past. She was married to anesthesiologist Daniel Kendall from 2001 to 2006 before wedding her current husband, Douglas Brunt, in 2008.
