Snoop Doggs Post, in which he puts his criticism of LGBTQ representation in the Disney film “Lightyear”, was probably not written by him.
Snoop DogG’s excusing reaction to criticism of his LGBTQ-critical comments are fake. Someone who pretended to be the rapper had previously relativized the statements about the representation of LGBTQ in Disney films in the comments of an Instagram post of “Hollywood Unlocked” Snoop DogGs.

“My mistake that I don’t know for a six -year -old” – what is behind it
In the reaction it was said: “I was completely surprised and knew no answer for my grandchildren.” She continued: “All my gay friends know what’s going on, they call me full of love. My mistake that I know no answers for a six -year -old. Bringing me on how to learn. I’m not perfect.”
Was the reaction of Snoop Dogg actually from him? Speaker contradict

Fear of cinema: Snoop Dogg’s comment on “Lightyear” and the influence on the grandchildren
In the “It’s Giving” podcast, Snoop Dogg had shared his discomfort with the “Toy Story” spinoff “Lightyear” at the end of August, which he had looked at with his grandchildren. “Lightyear”, the prehistory of the human space Ranger Buzz Lightyear, shows a LGBTQ relationship between Buzz ‘best friend commandant Alisha Hawthorne and her wife Kiko. The film gives insights into the life of the two women who raise a child together.
Snoop Dogg said that this led to a whole series of questions from his grandchildren about same -sex couples that he could not answer. “It finished me,” said Snoop Dogg in the podcast. “I’m so afraid to go to the cinema. You all plunged me into a shit that I don’t know. That completely threw me off track. These are children. Do we have to show it at this age? You will ask questions. I have no answer.”
“Lightyear” controversy: LGBTQ representation ensures debate
Snoop Dogg received sharp criticism for these statements. Several users accused him of on social media: inside homophobia, as well as hypocrisy – his own music, which often appeals to violence, weapons or drugs, is anything but child -friendly.
The screenwriter defends “Lightyear” decision: “I created the lesbian couple”
According to “Variety”, there was a controversy within Pixar when the studio considered to cut out the couple’s same -sex kiss. After Snoop Dogg’s statements on Instagram, screenwriter Lauren Gunderson defended her decision to keep the couple in the film.
“I created the lesbian couple in Lightyear,” she said on Instagram. “As small as this detail in the film is, I knew what effect it would have for representation. A small sentence with great effect. I was thrilled that you kept it in there,” she said.
She continued: “I am proud to see a happy queer couple (if only for a few seconds) on the canvas. I know that they have had to take up a lot of criticism, but something like that is important because this wonderful love exists.” Unlike space travel with speed of light, murderous aliens and talking robot cats, happy queer love is not a fiction.
