Ellen DeGeneres is in the shit after sending out a tweet in which she’s Photoshopped on Usain Bolt’s back.

This is how I’m running errands from now on.

As usual the PC crowd took this the wrong way:

The Ellen picture is culturally insensitive & could be offensive. I find it offensive.

Ellen was left explaining to the world that she’s not a racist:

I am highly aware of the racism that exists in our country. It is the furthest thing from who I am.

Just goes to show you need to think before you tweet, even when you’re completely innocent. Ellen has literally MILLIONS of followers, so there’s always going to be someone who gets offended. It’s pretty clear to anyone with a brain that all she’s doing is complimenting Usain Bolt’s speed, but of course there’s going to be negative nancies who want to act like she’s set the world back 100 years.

There’s always a chance she’s a huge racist but not on this evidence. If you want real racism, get a load of this Chinese laundry detergent advert.
