VIDEO : Ellen DeGeneres Stirs Up Racial Uproar With Usain Bolt Tweet

What was meant as a joke about Usain Bolt and Ellen DeGeneres swiftly went awry on Twitter. On Monday, the daytime talk show host's official Twitter account tweeted a doctored image of Ellen riding the back of the gold medalist. The photo is the now famous one of him smiling as he heads to winning the men's 100m race at the Olympics in Rio. Some on Twitter found the image less than golden, with cries of racism and insensitivity in joking about a white woman riding the back of a black man.
