Bette Midler may be regretting her latest tweet after receiving backlash.  She is being criticised for a comment she made about Caitlyn Jenner. Bette has been fairly outspoken on Twitter recently, with the Kardashian/Jenner clan receiving some harsh words from the 70-year-old. Kim Kardashian was the first to be targetted by Bette after the famous naked photo. Bette said on Twitter, "Kim Kardashian tweeted a nude selfie today. If Kim wants us to see a part of her we've never seen, she's gonna have to swallow the camera." This spawned a fairly public spat between the two which got very awkward and was unnecessary. Now, Bette has turned her attention to Caitlyn Jenner. Following the news that Caitlyn's show has been cancelled due to poor ratings, Bette took to Twitter to say, "Now that @IAmCait has been cancelled, will she go back to being Bruce? Will Kris take him back? Do I smell a re-wedding?!"

Now that @IAmCait has been cancelled, will she go back to being Bruce? Will Kris take him back? Do I smell a re-wedding?!

People are upset and angry by her comment calling her "transphobic".

I hope @BetteMidler apologizes for her terrible transphobic comments and takes the time to educate herself on trans people's rights/dignity — Her Majesty (@RoyalHoeliness) August 21, 2016

@BetteMidler @IAmCait Yes, because being transgender is just a phase? What a vile tweet. Will you go back to being irrelevant? — Josh Haigh (@joshcharles_21) August 21, 2016

@BetteMidler I love you Bette but this is horrible.

@BetteMidler @IAmCait Why do you even think that is acceptable to say Bette? So rude and offensive toward a fellow Human. Shame on you. — Toria (LesbiHonest) (@LuckyCharmed3) August 20, 2016

@lov3humanity The struggles of being Transgender isn't exactly funny. And to joke about it in this context is highly offensive.
