Kevin Hart Criticized For Comments About Lil Nas X’s Coming Out

Kevin Hart is facing criticism over interrupting Lil Nas X while he was opening about his decision to come out as a gay. In an episode of HBO Sport's "The Shop: Uninterrupted," the rapper was asked about his coming out, which he did in a tweet on the last day of Pride Month in June. Kevin Hart kept interrupting him and seemingly implied that Lil Nas X’s announcement was unnecessary. Before Lil Nas X could offer an explanation, Hart chimed in to ask: "He said he was gay, so what?" The rapper then revealed he was taught to hate gay people. "Why you growing up to hate it?" Hart asked the rapper. "C'mon now. If you really from the hood, you know," Lil Nas X responded, referring to the stigma against homosexuality in the black community.
