DDG is facing backlash after sparking controversy with his comments about men watching the popular dating reality series ‘Love Island‘ by themselves.
Full story below.
In a recent video shared on social media, DDG (born Darryl Dwayne Granberry) expressed a strong opinion about the Peacock show.
He suggested heterosexual men who watch the show solo might be questioning their sexuality.
“I think it’s gay to watch ‘Love Island’ by yourself. If you’re a n**** and you’re watching ‘Love Island’ solo, you might be bisexual.”
TMZ shared the clip on X (formerly known as Twitter), where it drew mixed reactions and viral comments.
While some users agreed with DDG, others called the take outdated and unnecessary.
Many pointed out that enjoying a television show has nothing to do with sexuality and questioned why DDG felt the need to police what men watch.
Despite the rather large, mixed bag of responses, the rapper and social media influencer has not yet addressed the backlash publicly.
Love Island remains one of the most popular reality dating shows worldwide, with a dedicated fanbase across all genders.
Granberry’s comments have added another layer to the ongoing conversation about masculinity and entertainment preferences and come as yet another debate he’s ignited with his unfiltered takes.
