Ellen DeGeneres Bashes Abercrombie & Fitch; DeGeneres Object To Abercrombie CEO's Anti-Fat Agenda

Ellen DeGeneres has joined the ranks of millions who are unhappy with the anti-fat agenda of Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries. Jeffries announced last week that Abercrombie and Fitch's would no longer carry clothes above a size 10 and a video of him from 2006 soon surfaced, in which he called Abercrombie and Fitch's brand "exclusionary" and declared that "some people don't belong." In the opening segment of Ellen last Friday, Degeneres had plenty to say about the subject and even offered an alternative clothing situation for her fans.

"You know what I say to that? Oh Fitch, please," said DeGeneres to the cheers of her studio audience. "Since when is anything above a size 10 considered plus-size?

Of course, she then took the opportunity to sell her own line of merch. "If you really want clothing from a cool place, I have three words for you: The Ellen Shop," she said. "You can even order them when your family is sleeping and you're hiding in the pantry eating double-stuffed Oreos. We don't care."

She closed the segment by addressing the kids watching the show, reassuring them that beauty is only skin deep and hardly a measurement of future success. "What you look like on the outside does not make you cool at all. I had a mullet and wore parachute pants for a long, long time... and I'm doing okay," she said. "If you're healthy and happy, that's the most important thing."
