Most Controversial Moments Of CeeLo Green

CeeLo Green Targets The Gay Community

In 2011, CeeLo Green put out some rather homophobic remarks on social media and fell into a lot of trouble due to his actions. It all started when a journalist reviewed his performance, saying, “It failed to measure up to the fun factor of his recorded material. Green spent most of the set stationed in front of a microphone at the center of the stage, barely moving an inch while he sang, and flanked by two forgettable back-up singers and a DJ that was all but hidden behind a giant LCD display.”

CeeLo Green’s Comment

“I respect your criticism but be fair! People enjoyed last night! I’m guessing ur gay? And my masculinity offended u? well fuck U!”

“Apologies gay community! what was homophobic about that?”

Controversy

Fans got furious about his homophobic comment and called the singer out on Twitter. CeeLo Green tried to justify his side by saying that it was all in good fun. In an interview, he defended himself by saying, “I am not harboring any sort of negative feeling toward the gay community. I am one of the most liberal artists that I think you will ever meet, and I pride myself on that.”
