Megyn Kelly has criticized Charlize Theron after the actress recently revealed that she had a one-night stand with a man nearly half her age while appearing on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast.
“She decided to go on a podcast tour for some reason,” Kelly said during Thursday’s episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show.” “[She] sat down with ‘Call Her Daddy,’ the sex podcaster who interviewed Kamala Harris — all about how much they love abortions.”
The right-wing political commentator went on to accuse the “Mad Max” star of trying to act like a “super cool girl.”
During the July 2 episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, Theron, 49, shared that she had slept with a 26-year-old man after Cooper asked the South African film producer for her best sex advice.
“I’ve probably had three one-night stands in my entire life, but I did just recently fuck a 26-year-old and it was really fucking amazing and I’ve never done that and I was like, ‘Oh, this is great, OK,’” she said during the episode. “When I do [have a one-night stand], I’m like, ‘Oh, fuck yeah, I should have done this in my 20s.’”
Later in the episode, Theron encouraged women to be more vocal about their desires in the bedroom.
“Women who come across as confident, women who come across as outspoken, ones that wouldn’t speak up for themselves tend to also be, in bed, people who want to please males,” Theron told Cooper.
She added: “Like, and I have found this in my experiences with talking to other women about this. Isn’t it strange? We should be the ones that are like, ‘Fuck you. I’m gonna have an orgasm.’”
Kelly went on to call Theron’s appearance on the podcast “weird” and “shockingly inappropriate.”
“She’s 49 years old, she’s trying to sound like she’s 26 years old … It feels weird. She’s one of our biggest stars, that’s true. Act like it. Have some class,” the former Fox News host declared.
“It’s a very strange thing to see one of our best-known actresses sit down, like, that with the crossed legs with this sex podcaster talking about their orgasms and who they f-ed,” she continued. “It’s really off-putting … it’s a turn-off.”
Elsewhere in the episode, Kelly took another jab at Theron, who ironically played her in the 2019 film “Bombshell,” which was based on the sexual harassment scandal at Fox News that led to the ousting of Roger Ailes.
“People can make their own minds up, [but] this is not how I would like to see our biggest stars behave,” Kelly said. “She’s on the opposite side of the aisle than we are politically, but you never see Julia Roberts do this kind of thing.”
