Marlon Wayans is a proud ally… And he doesn’t give a f**k who that pisses off!
The White Chicks actor has become the subject of a social media frenzy after showing off his support for the LGBTQ+ community on Instagram over the weekend. It all started with a shirtless pic he shared on Friday clad in silver pants, stylish sunnies, a hat, and a rainbow pride flag draped around his shoulder. He captioned the post:
“Happy PRIDE to all my LGBTQ+ peoples. Did a photo shoot with the great photographer @parrish_lewis dope pic … P.S. I’m STRAIGHT… well, according to my child CISGENDER male. I just love and support my peoples”
As you may know, Marlon is the proud father of transgender son Kai and the uncle of gay niece Chaunté. So it’s great to see that he’s so supportive! But unfortunately the comments section quickly became a wasteland of hatred.

While Chaunté thanked him for “always supporting & letting me wear your clothes,” some nasty commenters accused him of doing anything “for the right price,” and vowing to unfollow him. But Marlon didn’t let the noise drown out his support. In fact, he returned to the app with yet another pic from the shoot while coming for the “hate mongers” in his caption:
“Yeah and just for the HATE MONGERS … I’m posting ANOTHER. 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. How can you love anyone when you’re too busy judging. Some of y’all funny. I’m a troll. I’ll post all day. HAPPY PRIDE to all my friends, fam, fans and loved ones. I am happy you’re happy… period”
Go off, king!!
Marlon then posted a THIRD pic from his pride shoot — this time sporting a rainbow mask and various LGBTQ+ buttons — adding:
“You mad?! I can do this s**t ALL DAY… but instead I think I’ll do it ALL MONTH. HAPPY PRIDE”
He added in another:
“Do i look like I really give a f**k?! Happy PRIDE month. Especially to all the hateful dudes out there mad because I’m supporting family and friends. For people to be that homophobic wreaks of repressed feelings/desires. Bruh, don’t live like that. Come on out. Be you. That’s what PRIDE is all about… acceptance. I swear i got soooo many more pics”
What a legend!
He even posted a WILD interaction he had with one commenter in particular, which you can read (below):
OMFG!
Upsettingly, the Little Man star ended up losing 10,000 followers over it, according to multiple sources. But like Marlon said, “GOOD!” He addressed the matter in a post on Sunday, writing:
“I hope i lose EVERY FOLLOWER that is ignorant, smal and full of hate. I don’t f**k with that type of energy. Let’s just keep 100. I don’t f**k with you so don’t f**k with me. Respects #bye”
I hope i lose EVERY FOLLOWER that is ignorant, smal and full of hate. I don’t fuck with that type of energy. Let’s just keep 100. I don’t fuck with you so don’t fuck with me. Respects #bye

What a real man! It’s so refreshing to see a cisgender, heterosexual male being so supportive of his child and such an advocate. We love to see it!
