T-Pain has been on a viral streak in 2024, wowing fans with high-energy performances across the country—including a standout set at this year’s Coachella. But it wasn’t just his vocals that had fans talking this time—it was his twerking.
During a recent performance, the famed entertainer got playful on stage and broke out into a twerk, sending the crowd into a frenzy. While the moment was celebrated by many, some social media users took issue with it, questioning whether a straight man should be twerking.
The backlash didn’t sit well with T-Pain, who took to social media to deliver a direct and unapologetic response to those questioning his sexuality.
“Pls block me if you in the closet and can't live your life without worrying about if strangers know your sexual orientation,” he wrote. “I been married for 22 years and I'm definitely not concerned about if some random n**** from Albany thinks I'm gay for having the time of my life during a performance. Y’all n****s need some hobbies.”
T-Pain’s message was met with support from fans and fellow artists who praised his confidence, authenticity, and refusal to let outdated stereotypes limit his expression on stage.
As he continues to tour and entertain crowds with his signature blend of fun and fearless energy, T-Pain is reminding everyone that self-expression doesn’t come with a rulebook.
