Snoop Dogg is under fire after he made homophobic comments about a lesbian couple depicted in the animated movie “Lightyear.”
On Wednesday’s episode of the “It’s Giving” podcast, Snoop spoke about watching the 2022 Disney movie with his grandson. When his grandson questioned Snoop about the lesbian couple in the film having a baby together, Snoop said he didn’t have an answer.
“My grandson, in the middle of the movie, is like, ‘Papa Snoop? How she have a baby with a woman? She a woman,’” the rapper said on “It’s Giving” podcast. “Ah, shit. I didn’t come in for this shit, I just came to watch the goddamn movie.”
He continued, quoting his grandson: ”‘They just said she and she had a baby. They both women. How did she have a baby?’ … I’m like, scared to go to the movies. Y’all throwing me in the middle of shit that I don’t have an answer for.”
Snoop’s comments are edited out of the video version of the podcast but are still included in the audio version. The podcast’s host, Sarah Fontenot, did not immediately return a request from celebrity.land for comment.
The California rapper said on the podcast that he didn’t answer his grandson; instead, he just told him to be quiet, eat his popcorn and continue watching the movie.
“It threw me for a loop,” he said. “I’m like, these are kids, we have to show that at this age? They’re going to ask questions. I don’t have the answer.”
Snoop’s reps did not immediately respond to a request for comment from celebrity.land.
“Satisfy yourself accordingly,” he said. “I have no issues with nobody. I live for me and I live my life doing what I do, so you should have the right to do whatever you want to do.”

Snoop has leaned left politically throughout his career, endorsing Democratic candidates for president, like Barack Obama in 2008 and Joe Biden in 2020. In 2017, he appeared in a video where he mockingly executed a clown resembling President Donald Trump.
But in recent years, he’s become softer on Trump, saying in 2024 that he had “nothing but love and respect” for the president. He even performed at a Trump-sponsored crypto event right before Trump’s second inauguration in 2025.
