Some stars spark outrage by seemingly siding with police despite the death of George Floyd, while some others are dragged for focusing more on the damages caused by looters instead of the real issue.

AceShowbiz - LL Cool J was among the celebrities who weighed in on the Black Lives Matter protests that have been taking place around the country. However, instead of centering his opinion on the black experience, the Queens native talked about how biracial families took the matter. "Imagine how people raising bi racial children feel right now!!!!!! This is crazy!!!!!!" so he wrote on his Twitter account in May, much to everyone's dismay.
In response to the hate comments he received over his views, the rapper explained on Instagram Live, "What you're not going to do is to get me to act and be like a moron or an idiot just for you to like me. Kiss my a**. I ain't doing that either." He went on to say, "I'm not going to tell lies on Twitter or act like I don't have questions about things just to please you. I don't care if you like me or not because there are a lot of likeminded people who get it. And that's who I care about."
