AceShowbiz - Young Dolph may have irritated LGBTQ+ community with one of his recent antics on his concert. In a video from his gig on Monday night, February 10, the rapper was seen throwing a man, who was participating in a twerking contest, off stage.
In the video which has circulated online, the male audience, who was shirtless and only wearing a pair of shorts, joined four female audience members in the twerking contest. Noticing the man among the participants, Young Dolph asked the DJ to cut off the music and then called security to take the man off the stage.
After the video went viral, many have gone as far as calling the "100 Shots" hitmaker's treatment on the male audience "discriminatory" and "homophobic." One angry person commented, "Why he hating on a gay dude. His music gay af."
But many others have apparently noticed that Young Dolph's interaction with the twerking guy was not genuine a.k.a. it was staged. "Definitely a skit, I recognize the little arm," someone suggested. Another similarly said, "That's clearly his boy."
Turns out the guy who was kicked off the stage was fellow Memphis native and comedian Grove Hero, who is hosting Young Dolph and Key Glock's "No Rules" Tour. The self-declared "The Funniest Guy on Social Media" promoted the tour last week on his Instagram page. "For everybody that’s asking this is how the situation really happened @youngdolph & @keyglock," he posted along with a promo art of the tour and a video of him urging fans to get the tickets.
In another post, he shared his heartbreaking experiences prior to being able to go on the tour. "I had to figure out how to deal with a disability my whole life, grew up in a place where it was nothing but drugs and violence but I made it out," he wrote. "Lost my momma in a car crash on Christmas Eve and my great grandma died 5 months before my momma."
Revealing how his life has turned around for the better, he added, "I was dead broke to my name but I never made excuses. Look at me now. I'm actually going on a 32 city tour. If somebody would of told me this would of happened for me after dealing with all this I wouldn't of never believed it. Don't ever give up you never know where you will be."
