Jane Fonda makes jokes about Megyn Kelly in reply to facelift comment

"I think before your first facelift?"

It seems Jane Fonda can't go anywhere without someone bringing up plastic surgery.

You might recall that, back in September, Fonda was asked an infuriating question about her plastic surgery by Megyn Kelly during an excruciating interview on the Today show.

Though a few months have passed by, Fonda doesn't seem to have forgotten about that rather cringeworthy interaction.

Fonda and her Grace & Frankie co-star Lily Tomlin were appearing on the Today show together—thankfully sans Megyn Kelly this time—when Tomlin cracked a joke about Fonda's facelift.

The pair were asked a question about their off-camera friendship. Fonda said the pair have been friends for 50 years—a friendship which, according to Tomlin, began prior to Fonda's first facelift.

"I think before your first facelift?" quipped Lily Tomlin.

After a great deal of laughter, Fonda had one scathing remark to add.

"Who are you, Megyn Kelly?" Fonda said to Tomlin.

Looks like Fonda won't be forgetting Kelly's name any time soon.
