Dame Dash Questions Charlamagne Tha God's Sexuality and Masculinity in Heated Interview
Dame Dash ignited controversy during a recent appearance on "The Breakfast Club" by openly questioning the sexuality and masculinity of host Charlamagne Tha God. The exchange quickly escalated from a discussion about Dash's ventures to personal attacks and accusations.
The Heated Exchange
The tension began when Dash criticized Charlamagne as not being a "proper representation of the masculine Black man," contrasting his own influences with Charlamagne's. He pointed to Wendy Williams, Charlamagne's former boss, as his "OG," a claim Charlamagne dismissed.
The discussion took a sharp turn when Dash directly questioned Charlamagne's sexuality. "It ain’t no disrespect, but I kinda think you’re gay. You just act a little gay," Dash stated, adding that his issue wasn't with homosexuality itself, but with people who "pretend they’re not gay."
Charlamagne defended himself, stating, "Well, I’m not gay." Dash retorted, "You are," leading to a series of increasingly personal insults and challenges to each other's character and backgrounds.
Accusations and Defenses
Dash further criticized Charlamagne's media career, asserting that his start in "gossip" was "very feminine" and that he focuses too much on other people's genitals. He also brought up an incident from 2001 where Charlamagne ran from a group of attackers, using it as evidence of his lack of masculinity.
Charlamagne fired back by questioning Dash's apparent obsession with homosexuality. He quipped, "If I’m gay, you’re broke," referencing Dash's past financial troubles. The conflict culminated in threats of physical violence, with Dash declaring he could "punch you right in your face like a grown man," and Charlamagne responding that they would fight.
The argument continued with accusations of being "feminine" and "like an auntie" before Dash threatened to end the interview.
Dash's New Role at REVOLT TV
Amidst the heated exchange, Dame Dash announced his immediate appointment as Chairman of REVOLT TV for a one-month term. This partnership between REVOLT TV and Dash's AmericaNu Network will feature programming from Dash's film and content catalogue.
The Aftermath
The explosive interview has sparked significant debate online regarding Dash's comments and their potential impact. The exchange highlights the ongoing tension between the two figures and raises questions about acceptable forms of public discourse.
