Roseanne Barr calls #MeToo victims 'hoes' and claims they were 'trading sexual favours for money'

ROSEANNE Barr has dismissed #MeToo victims as “hoes” and alleges they were “trading sexual favours for money”.

The no-holds-barred actress made the comments while chatting with Candace Owens, when the pair also discussed the aftermath of the controversy that lead to her primetime sitcom being canned.


During her recent interview with the right-wing commentator, Barr slammed the originators of the #MeToo movement as being "hoes".

Speaking about women in the entertainment industry, on the commentator's podcast, The Candace Owens Show, the 66-year-old recalled a chat with someone who said "they were there in the room because they thought they were going to get a job 15 years ago."

Barr ranted: "They were hoes; if you don’t run out of the room and go ‘excuse me you don’t talk to me [like that], you don’t do that to me, excuse me’ and leave… but you stayed around because you are like, ‘well, I thought maybe he was gonna give me a writing job', well you ain't nothing but a hoe.”

She also lambasted Sen Kamala Harris, Christine Blasey Ford and other women, reports Fox News.

Barr rhetorically asked why some women found themselves in men's hotel rooms at 3am.

Interviewer Owens replied by pointing out that women have accused comedian Louis C.K. of sexual misconduct, prompting the actress to reply: "That's who I'm talking about too."

She was kicked off the rebooted "Roseanne" show after posting a racist tweet about former President Barack Obama's adviser Valerie Jarrett last May.

They were hoes – if you don’t run out of the room and go ‘excuse me you don’t talk to me [like that], and leave… but you stayed around because you are like, ‘well, I thought maybe he was gonna give me a writing job', well you ain't nothing but a hoe.

Barr's show was cancelled as a result of those tweets, and spin-off show The Connors opened with her character killed off by an opioid overdose.

The dropped actress responded shortly after the first episode aired last year by tweeting: 'I AIN'T DEAD B*****S'.

Still courting controversy months later, Barr held nothing back on the Candace Owens Show as she expressed strong opinions on everything from race and politics to Hollywood and religion.

She sniped about Kamala Harris, the California Democrat who is running for president.

Barr said: "Look at Kamala Harris, who I call Kama Sutra Harris", as she pointed out the politician's prior relationship with former San Francisco mayor Willie Brown.

"SLEPT HER WAY TO THE BOTTOM"

She controversially claimed: "We all know what she did… she slept her way to the bottom."

Barr, who played a strong supporter of President Trump in her short-lived reboot, also bashed some former friends in Hollywood.

She recalled: “When I went to bat for Sandra [Bernhard], Kathy [Griffin] and Sara [Gilbert] to get them on TV — because I gave them all their TV jobs… you know what people at the networks told me? Those girls are too ugly to go on TV.

“And I said this is so incredibly sexist. Look at me, I’m no beauty. You can’t take talent, for a woman, and reduce it to their facial flaws. Are you s****ing me?”

But, she’s changed her stance since becoming a Hollywood outcast.

“Nowadays, I’m like, you’re right. They are too ugly to be on TV,” Barr concludes, alleging her colleagues have “ugliness inside.”
