(sic)Alongside the captio, Jenny had also shared a rude tweet.Tagging her, it read: "@jenlion being patronising, sarcastic and rude to the contestants on The Chase is not an attractive feature."Continuing her thread, Jenny wrote: "At least, not to be attractive to this guy."She went on in a new tweet: "In seriousness, would the [original poster] tweet this to any of my male colleagues?"It's infuriating that in 2022 CE I'm still being primarily judged on whether some random man on the internet wants to bang me (based on some Victorian ideal of the meek and mild woman, apparently) rather than how good I am at my job."Side note: I'm rarely patronising, let alone sarcastic or rude to the contestants," she ended her thread.However, Twitter user @playpictorial claimed that the show's host Bradley Walsh "always comments" about Jenny's looks.They replied to her: "Why then does Brad always comment about your looks in the intro whilst the Menace his intelligence, that said we enjoy watching your performance and positive comments to the contestants."Addressing the claims, Jenny was quick to shoot them down.She hit back: "He doesn't comment on my

Piers Morgan slams Rebel Wilson for 'sexist' jokes that 'couldn't be said by a man'
Piers Morgan has called out actress and BAFTAs host Rebel Wilson for her crude jokes and claimed that the comments she made would "get a man abused".Australian actress Rebel Wilson, star of Bridesmaids and Cats, hosted the 75th annual British Academy Film Awards at London’s Royal Albert Hall. She wore her signature blonde hair in Hollywood style curls and a figure-hugging red sequinned dress, but viewers were more distracted with her inappropriate jokes throughout the evening.Wilson made a number of jokes including comments aimed at Prince Andrew’s Pizza Express comments, 10 Downing Street’s lockdown parties and she even stuck a middle up to the camera which was aimed at Vladimir Putin.She also made multiple jokes towards The Power Of The Dog star Benedict Cumberbatch and at one point, Rebel wheeled out a cake which was a bust of the actor.At times her jokes fell flat, receiving minimal applause and the audience often looked unimpressed.The 41-year-old actress began a segment where she gave out her own awards, which were just her “old bras” spray painted gold.She began handing them out to members of the audience and gave one out to "the person Leonardo DiCaprio would find the most attractive" because he "does like them young".Then she suddenly threw another one behind her to the "person with the best reflexes" as some audience members reached out to grab it.Journalist and ex-Good Morning Britain presenter Piers Morgan was tuned into the show and seemed less than impressed with the wise-cracking presenter.
