Kevin Hart probably expected his interview with Ellen DeGeneres,Girls in the Night Traffic one of the most beloved lesbians in America, to clear him of any wrongdoing.

Twitter and CNN host Don Lemon was not.
SEE ALSO: Kevin Hart released a truly awful statement about his homophobic tweetsOn his show Friday, Lemon carefully broke down why Hart's "apology" wasn't good enough for him. Hart had previously agreed to stop posting offensive content, but only because crowds had grown more sensitive.
"Apologizing and moving on does not make the world a better place for people who are gay or people who are transgender, being an ally does," Lemon said.

On Saturday morning, Hart responded to the controversy on his personal Instagram:

It's now rumored that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences may re-consider Hart as the 2019 Oscar host after his interview with Ellen on Friday.
The drama -- and people's real pain -- will continue.
