On Monday, Morgan also criticized Ellen DeGeneres for “drooling” over photos attractive male celebrities.

Yet I've been abused all day for complimenting @hollywills on her legs.
The hypocrisy of modern feminism laid bare..

The “Good Morning Britain” host defended his criticism on Wednesday, calling DeGeneres a “hypocrite” and saying he wishes Little Mix would use talent to sell records instead of nudity.
Hi Joan, my mother taught me to speak my mind & never be afraid to express honestly held opinion.
Ellen's a hypocrite – and as for Little Mix, I'd just prefer they use their talent to sell records rather than their nudity.

Seeing Morgan’s response and insult directed at DeGeneres, Grande decided to weigh in, slamming the TV host and reiterating that women using their sexuality is their choice.
Ellen is an incredible & kind human being.. I use my talent AND my sexuality all the time because i choose to. women can be sexual AND talented. naked and dignified. it’s OUR choice.

also @piersmorgan, i look forward to the day you realize there are other ways to go about making yourself relevant than to criticize young, beautiful, successful women for everything they do. i think that’ll be a beautiful thing for you and your career or what’s left of it.
