Marlon Wayans fires back at Soulja Boy for calling actor’s trans son a homophobic slur
Marlon Wayans clapped back at Soulja Boy for calling his transgender son a “f—-t” amid their ongoing feud.
“If @souljaboy had a career he could get cancelled for this type of slander. Luckily he ain’t been relevant since 2007,” the “White Chicks” star wrote on X Wednesday.
Wayans’ response to the “Crank That” rapper comes hours after the latter shared a screenshot of 2024 headlines about the actor embracing his trans son.
“That f—-t shit run in the family huh @MarlonWayans no wonder u like dressing up as a bitch it’s in ur blood,” Soulja Boy, 34, captioned the photo.
Reps for the “Kiss Me Thru the Phone” rapper weren’t immediately available for comment.
Wayans, 52, previously revealed his eldest child was transgender during an appearance on “The Breakfast Club” in November 2023.
“My daughter Amai is now Kai,” he shared at the time, explaining he was initially ignorant and in denial of his child’s decision to transition before he experienced “complete unconditional love and acceptance.”
Wayans supported Kai, 24, during Pride Month in June 2024 by posing shirtless with a rainbow flag via Instagram.
“P.S. I’m STRAIGHT. well, according to my child CISGENDER male. I just love and support my peoples,” the “Little Man” star captioned the photo.
At the time, he was forced to fire back at haters with another post that read, “As a father of a child in the LGBTQ+ community I show my support. Zero f–ks. what people think. If i lost you… GOOD! Your hateful ass never loved me in the first place.”
Wayans shares his kids Kai and Shawn, 23, with his ex-girlfriend, Angelica Zachary.
The comedian and Soulja Boy, however, have been involved in a back-and-forth feud since Wayans called out the early 2000s rapper for trying to stay relevant during an appearance on 101.1 The Wiz radio show last month.
At the time, Wayans joked that it didn’t matter if Soulja Boy got canceled for performing at President Trump’s Inauguration ball on Jan. 20 because “no one” cares about him and he hasn’t had “hits in years.”
The “Pretty Boy Swag” rapper responded to Wayans’ comments via X on Feb. 10, writing, “Marlon Wayans you a bitch and u not funny shut up n—-a keep selling ur soul and sucking the higher up dicks.”
The “Scary Movie” star doesn’t appear to mind firing back at his rival’s insults, as he didn’t shy away from cracking a few more jokes about Soulja Boy during an interview with TMZ published Wednesday.
“If you’re gonna beef, you have to have a chest, that’s first and foremost,” Wayans quipped. “You gotta have more than two songs to beef.”
Wayans then compared Soulja Boy to a “crackhead” and “methhead,” saying he needs one for a forthcoming “Scary Movie” film.
“I need someone that looks like a wet muppet … I want someone that look like they’ll sell your car, rob you, and suck your dick all at the same time. Soulja Boy!”
