Maren Morris responded to Shane Gillis‘ controversial Saturday Night Live monologue by giving the comedian the middle finger.

Gillis hosted the late-night sketch show on Saturday night and spent his monologue commenting on how women dress at the gym. “I haven’t been to the gym in so long I didn’t know women just dress like whores now?” Gillis said. “Look, I’m sorry, there’s no other way to describe it. Have you seen it? I’ve seen it. You’ve seen the shorts? They’re those neon, like, artificial bait-colored. And the wrinkles go around the cheeks and all combine at the butthole. And don’t look! You’re not allowed to look. For real, don’t look, because they are filming.”

Morris didn’t waste words in her reply. Instead she posted a video of herself on Instagram with the text “me being a wh0re at the gym.” The video was accompanied by her song, “Be a Bitch,” which features the chorus: “Breaking my neck from turning my cheek/ Killing with kindness only killed me/ If the truth means I’m a little too mean/ Tried to fake nice, but it didn’t quite stick/ I’d rather be a bitch.”

The singer captioned the video, which culminated with her giving the camera the middle finger, “leave my gym short wedgie out of it.”

Several celebrities have responded to Gillis’ monologue, which caused an uproar on social media, with many describing him as a misogynist. Former SNL star Ego Nwodim posted a gym selfie to her Instagram Stories on Monday with the caption, “whore reporting for duty.” Meanwhile, Dan Levy shared an Instagram video saying he was “speechless that something like that can exist on live national television.”
