Appearing on The Mike Gallagher Show Friday, the Fox News anchor started to joke about the host's weight when Gallagher cut him off.
"Listen, don't fat shame me. You do a lot of fat shaming," Gallagher replied. "That's the new phrase now, 'fat shaming.' Have you seen Kelly Clarkson? You know the singer, Kelly Clarkson?
"Holy cow, did she blow up."
Wallace initially refused to engage in such commentary, but then allowed himself to make a tasteless joke in response.
"Kelly Clarkson's got a lovely voice," Wallace noted. "She could stay off the deep dish pizza for a little while."
The original American Idol's weight gain has been an unfortunate topic in the news lately.
Some British moron named Katie Hopkins came right out and called Clarkson fat a few weeks ago, prompting an amazing response in which Kelly shrugged and replied:
"What hurts my feelings for people is that I'll have a meet-and-greet after the show and a girl who's like bigger than me will be in the meet-and-greet and be like, 'Wow, if they think you're big I must be so fat to them.'
"And it's like, you're just who you are."
A colleague of Wallace's at Fox News colleague, meanwhile, thinks he ought to issue a mea culpa.
"This 'guy snickering' about her weight is obnoxious. He should apologize," Greta Van Susteren blogged soon after Wallace's comments went public.
The backlash against Melissa McCarthy's Elle cover was FIERCE with critics blaming the magazine for trying to hide Melissa's curves. Melissa responded "Hey, I have curves. I love that jacket. STFU." or something like that.
Mad Men's beautiful Christina Hendricks was once asked if she enjoyed being a role model for "full figured" women. "Are you calling me fat?" she replied, before her agent could end the interview.
