Overview

• On the podcast It’s Giving, Snoop Dogg described being caught off guard by a brief same‑sex couple scene in Pixar’s Lightyear while watching with his grandson.
• He said he avoided explaining the moment, telling the child to keep eating popcorn, and questioned whether such depictions belong in films for that age group.
• The remarks triggered widespread criticism on social media, with users accusing him of homophobia and sharing memes that amplified the dispute.
• Activists urged organizers to remove him from the Australian Football League Grand Final lineup, though no change to the booking has been confirmed.
• Commentators argued that adults can address children’s questions simply, including by referencing adoption, framing the episode within a broader fight over LGBTQ+ representation in kids’ media.
