KEY POINTS

After Jennifer Aniston urged her followers not to vote for Kanye West, the rapper reportedly took a jab at the actress.
West hit back at Aniston on Twitter Monday, sharing a screenshot of a Vanity Fair article titled, “Jennifer Aniston Endorses Joe Biden, Tells Fans ‘It’s Not Funny to Vote for Kanye,'” Page Six reported.
Referencing his three and a half hour interview with Joe Rogan, he wrote in a now-deleted tweet, “That Rogan interview got em shook. Let's gooooo.”
“'Friends’ wasn’t funny either,” the rapper added, Cosmopolitan reported.
This came after Aniston highlighted the importance of practicing the right to vote and the essence of electing the right people in an Instagram post over the weekend. In doing so, the actress threw some shade at West.
“#IVOTED for @joebiden and @kamalaharris. I dropped my ballot off, and I did it early. I voted for them because right now this country is more divided than ever,” Aniston captioned a photo of herself dropping off her ballot early.
“It’s about the future of this country and of the world. Vote for equal human rights, for love, and for decency,” she continued. “PS - It’s not funny to vote for Kanye. I don’t know how else to say it. Please be responsible.”
Several celebrities expressed support for Aniston’s statement, with some stars even lauding the “Friends” actress.
“Beautifully and perfectly expressed,” actress Julia Roberts commented on her post.
“Right on Jenn so well said,” Amy Sedaris said.
Although many of her celebrity friends gushed over Aniston’s move, it left a sour taste in some fans’ mouths. The post, which has more than 3.9 million likes as of writing, was flooded with complaints about the “Morning Show” star’s statement.
“Why must you tell us who you are voting for? Since when is that appropriate? Stop trying to persuade people to do what YOU think is right!” one Instagram user commented.
“You know what else isn’t funny? Taking political advice from a celebrity without doing your own research and really knowing who, why and what policies you’re voting for [sic],” another wrote.
