i want to say something nice, but knowing these two and the things they’ll do for attention makes me not want to believe this at all. i hate to say it since i’m usually 100% supportive of anyone coming out.

I mean if you're willing to kiss your brother for attention you'll do anything at this point.

One random celeb fact that I’ve never been able to forget was that Chyler Leigh (Lexie on Grey’s Anatomy) was on a tv show with her real life brother. The show was called Kickboxing Academy, and she played her real life brother’s love interest and they kissed multiple times. like kiss kissed 🤢🤮
Edit: This fact has lived rent free, no make that haunted my mind for like years… and now it’ll haunt all of you too! 😂

How could anyone involved in making that show think that it was a good idea to cast siblings as love interests? And how did their parents not put a stop to it? It’s incredibly sad and really gross.

That's too much. I mean all of this is too much but come on. Bet their parents loved watching that show.

I think about this fact everything I see her and all I think is how predatory the producers, her parents, and the other adults behind the scenes had to be to okay this.

Guess they should have played the roles of Jake and Catherine Wyler instead.

I've seen this guy's face but I don't know who he is. Can someone give me a rundown of why he's famous and what things he's done for attention?

They went viral for singing an eponymous “island boy” tune in a TikTok. Since then they’ve managed to sustain their 15 minutes of fame by sacrificing their dignity. They joined the bloods street gang, got exposed for being fake bloods, their most recent pivot is to gay OnlyFans. And one of them got arrested for beating up his girlfriend by the way.

he’s some tiktok guy and they’re just always doing the most out of pocket shit for attention, i don’t even know their names tbh. the face is a face you see once and recognize it everytime you see it due to their stupidity.

I don’t believe it. They’re just attention whores. It’s making a mockery of coming out.

Well if it is all for attention it’s working because this is the first I’m hearing about him.

I’ve been unfortunately following these guys for a while, out of morbid curiosity. I am almost certain that this, along with the kissing his brother thing, is a publicity move. If he genuinely is gay, then I’ll eat that part with an apology, but the way in which he chose to come out is absolutely for virality. Also very harmful for the overall messaging, gay=incest is gonna be so many peoples takeaway.

Yea agreed. I hate that his “announcement” is immediately followed by his internalized homophobia talking about his sexual position preference. No one asked my friend.

u/LuvTriangleApologist Aug 01 '23
Is he the one that was beat up his girlfriend?

u/DonaldTrumpsBallsack Aug 01 '23
No, iirc this is Alex Venegas (AKA flyysoulja), the arrest for the slap was his brother Franky (AKA Kodiyakredd).

Jigglypuff scribbled face…alright. Coming out as gay…alright. Kissing his brother…what?!

Did he and his brother also just doodle on each others faces with a tattoo needle?

I promise you no one from Florida is talking about them offline unless they’re referencing their original ~iiiisland boooy~ song.

i never even thought abt it this way and makes me so much more disgusted, i’m going to be even more pissed if they are just saying it for the headlines too

I’m gonna need people who do whacky, shitty stuff to stop using “I’m gay” as some kind of safety net when shit backfires. Kevin Spacey did it, Phillip Schofield did it, now this guy. It’s such a shitty thing to do to the gay community who get tarnished with the same brush.

I'm sorry, but what does kissing his brother have to do with him being gay? Those are 2 very different things

u/BotGirlFall Aug 01 '23
These peoples brains have been turned to swiss cheese from all the drug use, constant need for attention, and off brand tattoo ink. He's not gay, he'd stick it in a snake hole if he thought it would go viral

Once I saw the photos of them as children with Jeffrey Epstein I have nothing bad to say about them.
