Celeb Type Stuff: Caitlyn Jenner says Ellen “alienated” her from the LGBT community


Whether or not you’re a fan of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, I’m sure you’ll find this interesting!

Caitlyn Jenner is claiming in her new memoir that Ellen DeGeneres alienated her from the LBGTQ community.

I knew exactly what she was referring to when I heard this. Caitlyn is a conservative person and has always been; so when she went on Ellen back in 2015, she admitted that she was hesitant to accept gay marriage.

Ellen then went on The Howard Stern Show and said she was confused by Caitlyn’s conservative views.

Caitlyn wrote in her memoir The Secrets of My Life (out officially April 25):

 I am for (marriage equality). I did not initially understand why marriage was so important, influenced no doubt by my own personal experience. Now I do, and it’s a wonderful thing to see. This discussion further alienated me from members of the LGBTQ community. Ellen’s appearance on The Howard Stern Show, where in my mind she even more emphatically took what I said out of context, made it go viral.

I don’t believe that Ellen did anything wrong. Just like Cait has the right to be conservative; Ellen has the right not to be.

Also, as a fan of the Kardashian’s show ( I promise I only watch for the fashion! HA) I can tell you that Caitlyn has ALWAYS played the victim, so I’m really not surprised by her behavior. Caitlyn still blames Kris Jenner for their breakup and insisted that Kris knew all along that Caitlyn was trans; even though Kris has always maintained that she never knew during their 22 year marriage. Caitlyn has also blamed her step-kids for not maintaining a relationship with her after the divorce; yet she fully admits that she’s not reaching out to them.

I think the reason why I find her behavior so shocking is that she’s 67-years-old and finally happy; so why keep focusing on/creating negativity?
