Another celeb family feud? That’s what it seems like! Because Sami Sheen is publicly slamming her younger sister!
The 21-year-old daughter of Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards took to TikTok on Wednesday to call out Lola for her transphobic and homophobic views. For those who don’t know, the 20-year-old is a born-again Christian. She even got baptized at the start of the year after hitting “rock bottom” — she’d been struggling with severe depression and anxiety.
Well, unfortunately (but unsurprisingly) it appears she’s one of those Christians. The ones who are irrationally hateful toward the LGBTQ+ community. Her public re-posts on TikTok actually make that all too clear!

Now Sami is so disappointed in her sis — because Denise raised them to be loving and accepting of everyone! She said in the video:
“My mom did an amazing job raising me and my sister to be very accepting of everyone’s sexuality and gender identity and everything else under the sun. That’s why it is so sad for me to see that my own sister is homophobic and transphobic now.”
The OnlyFans creator noted she did not plan to “take to the internet,” but she was blocked by Lola. She can’t even talk to her about it privately anymore! Oof!
Sami also pointed out she wasn’t technically exposing her sister’s bigotry since her feed is “public for everyone to see.” And the content Lola engaged with is extremely problematic! She re-posted a video from Christian podcaster Bryce Crawford claiming being transgender is a sin. WTF. Sami continued:
“She has been re-posting this man’s stuff. It disgusts me because it’s so sad that she’s this conformed to her religion that now she thinks like this.”
The model knows “everyone has their own beliefs.” However, she fired back that “you don’t have to be transphobic and homophobic to follow your beliefs,” adding:
“Someone’s sexuality and someone’s gender identity should not affect you. Who gives a s**t what someone identifies as? If that makes them happy, let them be. Stop trying to tell people that there’s something wrong with them because they identify a certain way.”
Say it even louder for Lola and everyone to hear!!!
We can’t defend hate. We can’t try to extend tolerance to intolerance. When someone believes your entire existence is wrong, it’s not a big leap before they support making it illegal. A few years ago we might have been seen as reactionary for saying that. Sadly, we’re living in those times now…
Sami then said Lola re-shared a different video from Bryce, where he mocked people at a pride parade. And her sister continued to show her true colors from there:
“I asked Lola if she would want to come to a Pride party with me and she laughed in my face. I also asked her how she would feel about me if I ended up marrying a girl and she got really weird and was like, ‘Well, I mean, I guess I would come to the wedding, but I think every woman needs a man to provide for them.’”
No… just no. She full-on embraced the Duggar family, tradwife patriarchy BS, too?? Oof.
Sami went on to express how “sad” it is to be related to “someone like this” when it’s just not how they were raised. What makes this whole thing sting even more? Sami is “part of the f**king LGBTQ+ community” and wishes Lola “was a f**king ally” instead:
“It’s just honestly disgusting, close-minded behavior.”
While Sami hopes Lola will “snap out of this eventually,” right now? It seems unlikely! When the content creator confronted her about the re-posts, she didn’t “even have the decency to respond.” Sami then showed several text messages about the situation that Lola left on read. Check it out (below):
Wow…
Sami then pleaded with Lola to change her ways and support the community, saying:
“Lola, if you’re watching this, I urge you, just for five minutes, put the bible down. It’s gonna be OK, you can live without it for five minutes and pick up a Pride flag and support the f**king community. I don’t know if you realize it is Pride Month, and you re-posting those things during Pride Month is just otherworldly. I don’t know who you are anymore. This is not you. We were not raised like this. I’m embarrassed. I am f**king embarrassed that my own sister is a homophobe. Do better. Seriously.”
It’s never easy to have a family member with such harmful views. So often people let it slide to not rock the boat… and we end up with the country we have now. Good for Sami for taking a stand! Watch the clip (below):
@samisheen a message to my sister since she blocked me @lola???????? #gay #pridemonth #lgbtq #humanrights
Sadly, Lola seems completely unwilling to hear Sami out.While she did not respond to the video, she liked a comment left on her recent TikTok post on Thursday that said:
“Stay strong Lola. This is the Enemy at work. Proud of you for standing in your belief. That doesn’t mean you’re phobic. Phobia is a fear of something. Not agreeing with something is just having different opinions.”
Ugh. “The Enemy.” We can’t say we were surprised by her reaction…
