Caitlynย Jennerย has been making a huge splash on social media with her new memoir. Not only does she reportedly dish on her gender transition, but also Jennerย blasted several celebrities.
In one excerpt from the book, Caitlynย slammed Ellen DeGeneres. Jennerย claims that the talk show host was partlyย responsible for ostracizing her from theย LGBTQย community. During an interview in 2015 on The Ellen DeGeneresย Show, Caitlynย spoke out about how she still viewed herself as a “traditionalist” at the time in regards to her stance on gay marriage.
“I believed, as anyone would, that that was exactly what she wanted to talk about my progression in terms of changing attitude over the years.”
“I am for [gay marriage]. 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.”
@Caitlyn_Jenner I would be more inclined to, if you hadnt slapped the entire LQBTQ community in the face by voting for people actively destroying it.

During an interview on The Howard Stern Show, Ellen DeGeneres expressed how she was confused by the fact that Caitlynย Jenner hadn’t entirely changed her view on gay marriage even after her gender transition.
“She still has a judgment about gay marriage,”ย DeGeneresย said. “I said, ‘You’re wanting people to understand and accept you, this is like really confusing to people. And you want us to understand, and that you still have a judgment about gay people and marriage.’”
Caitlynย claims this type of commentary “alienated” her from the LGBTQย community.
“This discussion further alienated me from members of theย LGBTQย community. Ellen’s appearance onย The Howard Stern Show, where in my mind she even more emphatically took what I said out of context, made it go viral.”
@Caitlyn_Jenner Just so sad to see you consumed by selfishness. You may not have asked for the gender dysphoria illness, but you didn’t have to accept it. ?

Caitlynย Jennerย also bashed O.J. Simpson and Robert Kardashian in her upcoming memoir.
According to Caitlyn, Robert Kardashianย knew that O.J. Simpson was guilty the whole time. “The implication was obvious that he believed O.J. was guilty,”ย Jennerย wrote.
Caitlynย also says that during a car ride with Robert, he told her: “I would’ve been okay with it if they had gotten him in the first trial.”
Jennerย also has opinions of her own regarding the Heismanย trophy winner’s innocence in the infamous murder trial.
“I believe he got away with two savage murders,”ย Jennerย writes according toย Radar Online. “[O.J.] was the most narcissistic, egocentric, neediest a**hole in the world of sports I had ever seen, and I had seen a lot of them.”
@Caitlyn_Jenner do you talk about how you killed a woman and got away with it just because you are a mentally challenged man with fake tits
