Fans quickly took notice when the statement appeared under a viral post, but reports now suggest the apology was never real.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Here\u2019s what we know about the controversy, the source of the fake remarks, and how those involved have responded.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Snoop Dogg\u2019s sorry for Lightyear\u2019s LGBTQ comments wasn\u2019t real<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Snoop Dogg faced backlash after making comments about the LGBTQ representation in Pixar\u2019s 2022 film Lightyear. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">A fake apology linked to the rapper spread online, but checks of his official accounts showed no such post. According to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2025\/08\/snoop-dogg-my-bad-lightyear-lgbtq-comments-1236502279\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Deadline;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Deadline<\/a>, sources close to Snoop confirmed that the apology was fabricated and not issued by him or his team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The fake comment appeared under a Hollywood Unlocked post featuring T.S. Madison criticizing Snoop\u2019s remarks. It read, \u201cI was just caught off guard and had no answer for my grandsons. All my gay friends [know] what\u2019s up, they been calling me with love. My bad for not knowing the answers for a 6-yr-old. Teach me how to learn. I\u2019m not perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While it appeared on his verified Instagram account, his representatives later confirmed that the post was not authentic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Snoop had previously spoken about the film on the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=bB6JDlXhAoE\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:It\u2019s Giving podcast;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">It\u2019s Giving podcast<\/a>, where he explained his discomfort with the depiction of same-sex parents in the movie. He said, \u201cI didn\u2019t come in for this shit. Y\u2019all throwing me in the middle of shit that I don\u2019t have an answer for\u2026 It threw me for a loop. I\u2019m like, \u2018What part of the movie was this?\u2019 These are kids. We have to show that at this age? They\u2019re going to ask questions. I don\u2019t have the answer.\u201d He recalled his grandson asking how a woman could have a baby with another woman, leading him to admit he struggled with providing an explanation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Lightyear tells the origin story of Buzz Lightyear, voiced by Chris Evans, and features a same-sex couple, Alisha Hawthorne (Uzo Aduba) and her wife Kiko. Screenwriter Lauren Gunderson later explained on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lalatellsastory\/p\/DN21gOmUDwx\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Instagram;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Instagram<\/a> that she helped create the characters, writing, \u201cI was proud to see a happy queer couple (even for a few seconds) onscreen.
