Ricky Gervais took a swipe at Transgender star Caitlyn Jenner at the Golden Globes.

The British comedian, who has hosted the event three times before, waited just two minutes after walking on stage before ripping into the transgender star.


In his opening monologue, he said: "I've changed. Well, not as much as Bruce Jenner, obviously - now Caitlyn Jenner, of course
"What a year she's had. She became a role model for trans people everywhere, showing great bravery in breaking down barriers and destroying stereotypes. She didn't do a lot for women drivers, but you can't do everything."

Although some people think he took his joke too far and may soon enough branded as 'transphobic'. While some feel it was a very mean joke others feel it's just humorous.
