Emily Ratajkowski is slamming Ellen DeGeneres for a resurfaced interview with Taylor Swift that has not too long ago gone viral on TikTok.
“This is so f**ked up,” the supermodel, 31, wrote in response to a clip of Swift showing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2012, experiences the New York Post.
“She’s literally begging her to stop.”
The clip featured a visibly uncomfortable Swift, now 33, sitting on a chair throughout DeGeneres as photographs of well-known males – like Taylor Lautner, Justin Bieber, Joe Jonas and Justin Timberlake – flashed on the display screen behind them.
DeGeneres, now 64, requested Swift to “ring a bell” each time the singer got here throughout a pic of one of many males she dated.
Swift pleaded with DeGeneres to cease, telling the now-embattled TV host that she needed to maintain “the one shred of dignity that I have.”
“I don’t want to [do it]. They’ll send me angry emails, and I don’t want to get them,” the “Midnights” singer said.
“Stop it, stop it, stop! This makes me feel so bad about myself,” she continued. “Every time I come up here, you put a different dude up there on the screen, and it just makes me really question what I stand for as a human being.”
Page Six has reached out to DeGeneres’ rep for remark.
Years later, Swift spoke to Apple Beats’ Zane Lowe about interviewers decreasing her to the lads she had dated within the early days of her profession.
Although she didn’t point out DeGeneres by title on the time, followers argued that she was clearly referencing the uncomfortable 2012 interview.
“When I was like 23, people were just kind of reducing me to — kind of making slide shows of my dating life and putting people in there that I’d sat next to at a party once and deciding that my songwriting was like a trick rather than a skill and a craft,” she instructed Lowe.
“It’s a way to take a woman who is doing her job and succeeding at doing her job and making things, and it’s, in a way, it’s figuring out how to completely minimise that skill.”
Ratajkowski wasn’t the one particular person to name DeGeneres out within the feedback part of the TikTok video, which additionally featured a clip from Swift’s interview with Lowe.
“Unbelievable,” influencer Tinx wrote, whereas one other person chimed in, “You can literally hear in her voice how upset she is.”
A 3rd wrote, “She’s clearly visibly upset, but having to, like, ‘perform’ that she’s laughing it off because an audience of people is laughing at her.”
DeGeneres, who apologised for cultivating a “toxic” office in 2020, ended her long-running present in May 2022 after 19 seasons.
