Ellen DeGeneres addressed a column on her latest show that accused Hollywood of having a gay agenda. It also targeted Ellen specifically. It was written by a pastor. Here's how she shut him down:

“I don’t usually read anything about myself,” the talk show host started. “Unless it’s about me being pregnant and then how else would I know? Got to find out. But I heard there was an article written about me and I would like to address it right now.”

Larry Tomczak wrote DeGeneres “celebrates her lesbianism and ‘marriage’ in between appearances of guests like Taylor Swift to attract young girls.”

“OK, let’s just break this down,” she said. “First of all, I’m not ‘married,’” she corrected, using air quotes. “I’m married. That’s all.

“And, Larry, I don’t even know what it means to celebrate my lesbianism. I mean… Well, I guess I do,” DeGeneres said, gleefully setting off a popper. “Like that! Yay! I’m gay!”

She said Tomczak also criticized TV shows like Glee and Modern Family for “promoting gay agendas.” “If you ask me, Larry is watching a lot of gay TV,” she joked.

“The only way I’m trying to influence people is to be more kind and compassionate with one another,” DeGeneres said. “That is the message I’m sending out. I don’t have an agenda.”

She added, “I’m not here to brainwash anyone,” as she was handed a spinning vortex.

“Attention, youth of the world,” she said. “I want you to live your lives being exactly who you are. Be true to yourself — the most important thing is to be true to yourself.”
