The former Fox News and NBC News journalist turned podcaster Megyn Kelly wants Oscar-winning actor Charlize Theron, who has starred in several action movies, to “come and f**k me up” because the conservative media personality opposes drag.

Megyn Kelly made the comments while responding to a statement Theron made during a recent appearance in support of the LGBTQ+ community.

“I will f**k anybody up who is, like, trying to f**k with anything with drag queens,” Theron said during the recent “Drag Isn’t Dangerous” telethon. It raised over $600,000 to support drag performers and pro-LGBT+ causes.

“Okay, so why doesn’t Charlize Theron come and f**k me up? Because I’m 100% against her on this,” Kelly said on “The Megyn Kelly Show” Friday on SiriusXM.

Kelly also mentioned Jackson, Theron’s transgender daughter.

Kelly wondered why Theron didn’t oppose the “grooming of young children.” Right-wing personalities falsely label LGBTQ+ community members who support drag performances as “groomers.”

“Yes, there are fun drag queen shows,” the entertainer said on her program. “I’ve been to them.”

She added, “But there are drag queen shows out there right now that are deeply disturbing, and they’re happening in front of young children. So know what you’re supporting.”

Conservatives have conflated nightclub performances by drag queens that tend to be geared toward an adult audience and the experience of attending a drag brunch or Drag Queen Story Hour, where drag performers entertain those audiences in age-appropriate ways.

“Understand what we’re actually seeing out there, which can include absolutely the grooming of young children,” Kelly claimed. “Even [Theron] should be against that trans kid or not.”

Theron portrayed Kelly in the 2019 film Bombshell. The film was based on the sexual harassment that women Fox News personalities and journalists experienced under then-chairman Roger Ailes.

“There are so many things that are hurting and, really, killing our kids, and we all know what I’m talking about right now, and it ain’t no drag queen,” she said in the video alongside friends. “If you’ve ever seen a drag queen lip-sync for her life, it only makes you happier, it only makes you love more, it makes you a better person.”

In the telethon, Theron referenced proposed legislation banning public drag shows in Republican-run states.

“Please support all the great organizations that are out there helping all of this nonsense go away like it should,” Theron added. “All of these incredibly stupid policies. Bye! No more room for hate, only love, and love equals drag queens!”
