Megyn Kelly lashed out at Jennifer Aniston for falsely accusing Sen. JD Vance of opposing in vitro fertilization as well as for staying silent over transgender males competing against women in sports.
Aniston, the “Friends” actress who does not normally weigh in on sensitive culture war topics, waded into a political controversy last month when she criticized Vance (R-Ohio), the GOP vice presidential nominee, for his remarks about “childless cat ladies.”
Kelly, the host of the SiriusXM podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show,” told former Navy SEAL officer Shawn Ryan that Aniston can’t claim to be a spokesperson for women’s issues given her silence about Olympic boxer Imane Khelif.

“What has she said about the woman who got her face punched out by the man in the boxing ring? Zero,” Kelly told Ryan on his podcast “The Shawn Ryan Show” on Monday.
Khelif is the Algerian boxer who won a gold medal at the Paris Olympics last month despite the fact that she was disqualified from other world competitions after failing a gender eligibility test.
“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,” Kelly said.
Kelly also criticized Aniston for not speaking up about the incident at a Massachusetts high school field hockey game last year, when a member of the girls team from Dighton-Rehoboth was hospitalized after she was hit in the mouth by a shot taken by a boy playing for opponent Swampscott.
“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 said of Aniston.
Kelly added: “So I don’t give a s— what she thinks about JD Vance and childless cat ladies.”

Aniston “masquerades as some protector of women, she’s quite the contrary,” according to Kelly, who said the “Friends” star “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?”
