I guess the days that "reality has a well-known liberal bias" are officially dead.

I look forward to Elliot returning and apologizing for ever accepting a Best Actress award.

Haha if only. She is still playing a female role because it suits her. There is no way she would give up the award to a runner up because she thinks she earned it. TRAs and celebrities only do things that are self serving. If she does return all her female awards I will totally eat a $100 bill.

I honestly feel sorry for her. It's got to be psychologically damaging to live in the reality-free Hollywood bubble starting from when you're relatively young and not yet grounded in who you are. Add to that a complete lack of grounding in higher education (or any other non-star-studded stretch of life experience) plus having people call you a genius because you almost won an award when you were twenty. Combine all that with the fact that at 33, her best days are well behind her as an actress, and it's got to be a recipe for wondering who the hell you are in the grand scheme of your world.

Someone here also suggested that her wife is a big supporter of the tranwagon, and that there were rumours of marriage troubles that might have influenced Ellen to want to do things to keep her spouse interested in her. It certainly seems a plausible scenario where a lost girl who never quite grew up might be heavily influenced by a more forcefully dominant person in their life. And well, here we are he is.
