American news anchor Megyn Kelly is at it again!

The controversial TV personality has angrily hit back at Charlize Theron over her recent comments about those who oppose drag shows.

Whilst the women have polar opposite views, there is a strange connection between the presenter and the South African actor.

In fact, Theron played Kelly in Bombshell, which is the true story of three Fox News journalists who exposed their misogynistic CEO.

Despite this connection though, the news anchor had few kind words for the 47-year-old actor.

It’s after the Atomic Blonde star defended drag acts in a video for the Drag Isn’t Dangerous telethon fundraiser.

The event raised over $500,000 for various charities, in the wake of anti-LGBTQ+ laws being passed across the US and the banning of public drag shows in some states.

Theron’s video has since gone viral, as she proudly told drag acts: “We’ve got you and I will f***k anybody up who’s trying to f***k… with you guys.”

She continued, adding: “In all seriousness, there [are] so many things that are hurting and really killing our kids, and we all know what I’m talking about right now, and it ain’t no drag queen.”

The Oscar-winner concluded by saying: “Please support all the great organizations that are out there helping all of this nonsense go away like it should.”

Whilst many have praised the actor’s efforts, Megyn Kelly wasn’t among them.

During her self-titled podcast, the controversial news anchor angrily hit back at the A-Lister and wrongly claimed that the telethon raised money for drag queens.

She said: “Okay, so why doesn’t Charlize Theron come and f**k me up? Because I’m 100% against her on this.”

Though Kelly did acknowledge the ‘weird connection’ between them, she later implied that the actor condoned grooming because of her stance on drag shows.

“Yes, there are fun drag queen shows. I’ve been to them,” confessed Kelly, adding: “it was all adults.”

“But there are drag queen shows out there right now that are deeply disturbing and they’re happening in front of young children. So know what you’re supporting.” Kelly said, despite not offering evidence of such crimes.

The host even made reference to Theron’s daughter Jackson, who recently transitioned from male to female.

“Understand what we’re actually seeing out there which can include absolutely the grooming of young children,” insisted the controversial host, adding: “Even [Theron] should be against that trans kid or not.”

Kelly also criticised drag shows for introducing ‘sexual behaviour’ and said that they ‘lured’ children into similar acts, but refused to give examples.
