Zara Larsson Responds To TikToker’s Pretend Anti-Homosexual Joke

Zara Larsson clapped again at a viral TikToker who made a joke about her being anti-gay, and he or she made an interesting level.

It began on Aug. 2, when TikTok person Ryan Crouse @ryanthetwat posted a video captioned, “I mean you get what you pay for,” detailing how he stumbled upon a $1 flight to Vietnam.

On Aug. 12, Zara stitched the identical video with a joke describing how she stumbled upon an all-expenses-paid journey to Disneyland after discovering an internet site claiming she was the millionth customer.

Now, this was the place the joke went left. Ryan replied with one other sew the place he alleged that when he attended Zara’s live performance in Washington, DC, he was the sufferer of anti-gay violence — a really completely different matter than fortunate web finds.

The joke triggered the “Lush Life” singer to pause the back-and-forth shenanigans to as a substitute focus on her points with males’s jokes that essentially make girls “look homophobic” and the way some jokes can go too far as soon as it spreads on the web.

“Boo! Tomato! Tomato! Tomato!” Zara stated, reducing away from the unique video. “Ryan, you seem like such a sweet guy. I love your content. I love your personality — and I get that it’s a joke.”

“But we need to make a study on what it is that makes men — white gay men — feel like making a woman look homophobic is, like, the funniest joke ever.”

“I thought that was a little played out,” she continued. “It’s 2023. Why are you still trying to, like, Millie Bobby Brown people? I don’t get it. And I get that [it’s] some sort of self-deprecating humor, I guess. But it’s always at the expense of the girlies, and I don’t like that.”

“Everybody who knows me knows that I’m an ally. I’ve always been. I will always be. To the people who don’t know me…who don’t, you know…get that it’s a joke — let’s think. Let’s be realistic.”

“Come on, guys. I believe in you. Use your brains. I don’t want to be a negative Nancy. I don’t take myself too seriously, but at the end of the day, it’s like, what’s so funny about this?”

“I had this happen to me just a few months ago when someone basically did the exact same thing, but it got way more spread, and people were way more upset because they thought it was real, strangely enough. It just makes me sad. It hurts me because that’s so far from my character and what I would do.”

Zara ended the video by claiming that she was going to sue Ryan for his content material earlier than admitting, “It’s a joke. It’s a joke,” maybe to focus on how some statements on social media carry plenty of weight.

Since then, Ryan has posted a follow-up video that appeared to not acknowledge any wrongdoing however as a substitute highlighted that his video was meant to be satire. “I think I caused a bigger stir than I meant to,” Ryan responded. “I just woke up to, like, 14 emails of reporters asking me to comment on the situation.”

He continued, “I saw Zara reply, and I felt kinda bad.” He added that he assumed everybody knew his responses to the “Never Forget You” singer have been satire. As a substitute of concern, he had hoped she would reply with one other comedic sew video. He solely needed “a funny internet exchange.”

“I do understand that if it’s not obviously satire — which I thought it was. But I guess not. Then it’s going to come off differently,” Ryan stated. “Y’all, I don’t know the girl. I never went to her concert. That never happened. So, I can clear that up right now.”

“She seemed really nice in her video, though. She seemed like a very nice person,” he added. “Y’all are saying, ‘Oh my God, she ate you up with her reply,’ and she kinda did. […] Yeah, I got ate up by Zara Larsson.”
