A former colleague of Megyn Kelly, Irene Halperin, a Fox News make-up artist, has come forward to say that her alliance with the Metoo movement is all a ruse.

She says that Kelly is disrespectful, extremely rude and mean to women. She related one incident in 2009 when she worked with Megyn Kelly who was co-anchor of America Newsroom with Bill Hemmer. Megyn arrived earlier than her scheduled time and tried to take the spot of a fellow woman reporter. She ignored Halprin who told her to wait her turn and instead told the reporter to get out of the chair and the reporter complied with her demands. Irene claimed Kelly lied to management the day following the incident by saying she (Helprin) had child care issues and as a result was late for work. READ FULL STORY

Fat ass

Ironically, she was on the Megyn Kelly show to say she wanted to move away from that "body shaming" message to motivating women saying it was never her intent. However, Megyn's response appeared to point to the virtues of body shaming. She suggested that people want to be shamed and it could be turned into a great business for Maria. She also said that she asked her step father to call her "fat ass" if she went into the kitchen one more time and that it works.

Megyn Kelly has since apologised for her support of fat shaming.
