Comedian and daytime talk show host Ellen DeGeneres is receiving some backlash from fans after a joke about Katy Perry was taken as sexist.

The star courted outrage on Wednesday after dedicating a tweet to the “Roar” singer on her birthday.

“Happy birthday, @KatyPerry! It’s time to bring out the big balloons!” the star wrote over an image of her gawking, mouth agape, at Perry’s breasts.

OMG!!!! Get a life people. What, a man nor woman can no longer use what is considered a beautiful physical truth about someone in a humorous way and not get called “sexist” for doing so? Is that the stupid level of political correctness we have fallen to? Neither from a man, nor even another woman can a woman be viewed and remarked about for anything other than her mind? Is that it? Has everyone gone mad?

"That said, some women need to allow the same flexibility of definition for men too. "

The women AREN'T allowing that same flexibility, and yet you run out waving a white flag.

I’ve been saying for a few days now... as much fun as it is to watch the Left eat each other, the fact is that the definition of what is “sexual harassment” is being rewritten as we speak... the whole thing is sliding right down the slippery slope with each one of these things.

If it were a (genuine) male drooling over the muskmelons, it would be all over the “ME TOO” twattersphere.

Actually, Katy looks like she’s giving the obligatory “I have to look like I’m enjoying this when I’m actually offended” look. A woman being ogled by a woman she doesn’t want to be ogled by is just as upset as a woman being ogled by a man she doesn’t want to be ogled by.

Hate to say this, but look what Katy’s wearing. Those puppies are inviting stares, leers, over eager glances and wishful thinking (please fall out) by anyone coming into contact with her.

There’s being discrete & polite with observation & comments, and then there’s putting ‘em on just-this-side-of-legal display.

Feminism means women doing what outrages them when men do it. Their idea of equity.

Ellen DeGenerate is as much a predator as Harvey Weinstein.

She got fake ones just for this kind of reaction. I invite you to look at pictures of Perry several years ago and compare.

Ahahahahahahaha.

Well I can hardly blame the dyke. “Feminists” who are upset to need to get a life, Perry posed for the stupid photo after all.

Then all greeting card companies should be shut down because all “funny” “gender” greeting cards are nothing but butt, boob, and fart jokes.
