about women the same way. (Seen here: The couple.) Instagram/jennabhager

The TV host chimed in on the controversy after Gillis, 38, received extensive backlash while talking about women at the gym on  SNL  over the weekend.

 I haven't been to the gym in so long, I didn't realize women just dressed like whores now,  he said, describing their shorts as  wrinkles [that] go around the cheeks and all combine at the butthole. 

 And don't look, you're not allowed to look,  the stand-up comedian joked.  For real, don't look because they are filming. I'm in the background of about 10 TikToks right now. 

The remarks led several celebrities to speak out against Gillis, including fellow comedian and actor Dan Levy.

8 Gillis (seen here on  SNL ) made the crude remarks about female gym-goers on Saturday.

8  I haven't been to the gym in so long, I didn't realize women just dressed like whores now,  he said.

 Women wearing short shorts to the gym does not make them whores,  the  Schitt's Creek  star said in an Instagram video.  It makes the men calling them whores misogynists. There's a difference there. 

 SNL  alum Ego Nwodim also took to her Instagram Stories to respond to the comments, referring to herself as a  whore reporting for duty  while wearing workout clothes.

The monologue, however, was  liked  on Instagram by Travis Kelce and referred to as  pretty funny  by Bobby Bones.
