Snoop Dogg on LGBTQ representation in kids’ films: ‘I’m … scared to go to the movies’
- Rapper Snoop Dogg criticized LGBTQ+ representation in children's films during an August 2025 podcast after watching Disney's 2022 movie Lightyear with his grandson.
- Snoop said he was caught off guard by his grandson's questions about a same-sex couple and stated, "I'm like, scared to go to the movies," reflecting broader discomfort.
- Lightyear notably featured Disney's first same-sex kiss and a same-gender couple raising a child, sparking controversy including bans in some countries and backlash from conservative commentators.
- A June 2025 GLAAD report showed a 62% decline in LGBTQ+ representation in 2024 children's movies, with only two films including brief queer characters on screen for less than a minute.
- Snoop's remarks triggered calls to cancel his Australian Football League Grand Final performance, though the AFL defended him amid ongoing debates about inclusion and entertainment standards.
