Jenny McCarthy now regrets her Hillary Clinton lesbian jab, in a lengthy piece written in the The Chicago Sun-Times’ Splash. Jenny McCarthy mocks Hillary Clinton during an episode of The View saying that she is a lesbian, in an op-ed, she says she now regrets the remarks and feels bad for sharing inaccurate information with the public.
Jenny McCarthy says she now regrets the joke she made about Hillary Clinton.
Last week, the ladies of “The View” were discussing Ronald Kessler’s new book, entitled The First Family Detail: Secret Service Agents Reveal the Hidden Lives of Presidents that includes a juicy passage on one of Bill Clinton alleged mistresses nicknamed “The Energizer.”
The book claimed that the President supposedly had a 13-year affair with a mother-of-three named Julie McMahon who also happened to be the Clintons’ neighbor and good friend.
Julie McMahon was given the nickname because she visited the former Democratic leader very often.
As the co-hosts were talking about the rumors, Sherri Shepherd said she finds it hard to believe that Bill would still be cheating on Hill because they have been through so many things as a couple.
McCarthy who will not be returning on the show in the fall interjected that maybe the former governor of Arkansas has his girlfriends and the former Secretary of State has her girlfriends – alluding to the long running allegation that Mrs Clinton is gay and was sleeping with one of her female staff members.
The former Playboy model regretted the joke and wrote an open letter in The Chicago Sun-Times’ Splash entitled “Anti-Gossip Girl” to explain that when she went home that night and started reflecting on her remarks, she realized that she was a hypocrite and felt ashamed.
The mother-of-one confessed that she had been hurt in the past by fake stories written about her and her family in the tabloids so she was surprised to catch herself doing the same thing to someone else.
The 41-year-old went on to explain that her role is to inspire and build up other women, not to trash them with negative comments.
The activist added that she will make sure she no longer feeds her audience lies.
Jenny McCarthy apologized for what she said about Hillary Clinton and concluded that she is a work in progress and hopes to become a true inspiration to women with time.
