3. When Ellen put photos of famous men and Taylor Swift's exes on a big screen and asked her which ones she dated.

4. When Ellen pressured Mariah Carey to either drink champagne or announce her pregnancy.

CBS / Paramount Pictures / Warner Bros Television Distribution

"Ellen made Mariah Carey visibly uncomfortable when she asked Mariah why she didn't want champagne. No one knows what a person might be struggling with, be that pregnancy, fertility issues, miscarriage, or even alcoholism."

7. When David Letterman interviewed Paris Hilton and made jokes about her being in jail.

11. When Cara Delevingne was on Good Morning Sacramento and they mocked her because she didn't seem excited.

CBS

"They began by getting her name wrong. Later, when she gave a dry response, they told her she should take a nap and drink a Red Bull, then continued to mock her even after the interview was over and she was gone."

13. When Jane Fonda was promoting her new movie and Megyn Kelly asked about her cosmetic surgeries.

NBC

"Megyn had no right to ask her about that. We all know she had surgeries, but who the fuck cares? It's her body. Jane was there to promote a movie and not discuss her personal choices."
