Martha Stewart is said to be furious with longtime pal Snoop Dogg after his explosive remarks about LGBTQ+ representation in children’s movies — and insiders claim the drama could threaten their multi-million-dollar empire.
The 53-year-old rapper sparked backlash after confessing on the podcast It’s Giving with Sarah Fontenot that he was “scared to go to the movies” after seeing Pixar’s Lightyear with his grandson. The animated film features a same-sex couple, and Snoop recalled being blindsided when his grandson asked how a woman could have a baby with another woman.
“I didn’t come here for this s—,” he said on the show. “I just came to watch the goddamn movie.”
The podcast clip — later deleted from YouTube but still circulating on Instagram — ignited a social media firestorm, with fans calling Snoop’s comments “homophobic” and “embarrassingly outdated.”
Martha ‘Disgusted’ and ‘Embarrassed’
Sources close to Stewart, 84, say she’s livid over the controversy. “Martha was disgusted,” one insider told Hollywood columnist Rob Shuter. “She adores Snoop, but she does not share his worldview. She believes love is love, and hearing him say something like that horrified her.”
Another source added that Martha feels “embarrassed” and blindsided by the fallout, especially as the duo has built a thriving business partnership. “They’ve worked hard to create this fun, inclusive brand together,” the insider said. “She feels like he should know better by now. It’s not 1995 — this is 2025.”
Brand Deals at Risk
The pair’s quirky friendship has led to numerous endorsement deals, joint TV appearances, and even their co-hosted Olympic coverage in Paris last year. But industry insiders warn Snoop’s remarks could cost them big.
“This could hurt them financially,” a studio executive said. “He’s built a career rapping about sex, drugs, and gang life — and now suddenly two moms in a Pixar movie are too much? It’s hypocritical.”
Fans Clap Back
Social media users didn’t hold back, blasting Snoop’s stance and urging him to “grow up.” One Instagram user commented, “Put on your adult pants, take a hit, and just explain to your grandson that two women love each other and wanted to raise a family. End of story.”
Others called out his recent acceptance of a DJ gig at Donald Trump’s second inauguration, linking his comments to what they perceive as anti-LGBTQ+ leanings. One viral X post featured a GIF of someone taking out the trash alongside the caption: “Snoop Dogg is MAGA. What did y’all expect?”
Friendship on the Rocks?
While neither Snoop nor Martha has publicly addressed the situation, insiders claim their once-playful, profitable friendship is now under strain. “This could be the moment that changes everything,” one source said. “Martha doesn’t want to be associated with hate — and she’s worried about the blowback to her brand.”

No such thing as homophobia! It’s not a ‘phobia’ to be against pimping homosexuality addiction mental illness.
Snoop should not have to explain that ‘shit’ to his grandchild at such a young age. Disney needs to go back to making wholesome movies for the whole family to see.
Good for Snoop! He reacts as a NORMAL Man on his rejection of what Disney has become. I was excted to go see the same movie, until I found out what had been done. So now I can’t even buy the DVD because I don’t want my grandchildren to see this sick trash.
Right on, Snoop! Hold the line. Thx for speaking up! We all gotta do more of that!
I’m on Snoopdogs side, this time.
Well, he could have explained “Where there’s a will (Love) there’s a way”
It’s really very simple: They adopt a child.
Martha Stewart isn\’t dealing with reality. Stick.with your beliefs Snoop even if it is \”2025\”.
Martha Stewart is not living in reality. Stick with your beliefs Snoop nothing wrong with that, even if it is “2025”.
Good for Snoop! There are a lot of us out here that agree with him. Most kids won’t notice it, but the ones that do–well, I am sick of Disney’s woke agenda. They do not have to cater to a Lgbabcdefg,etc. We are all sick of it. I won’t even go to a Disney pic any more!
Maybe Martha Stewart should be concerned about her finances because of HER stance, not Snoop’s!!!
Everyone is intitled to feel the way they do. A lot of us think like Snoop Dog and support him.
Am glad he’s taken up for this mess they are feeding our grandchildren, right on snoopDog
I agree with snoop dog you want to take your children to a movie that’s supposed to be a child’s movie and then it has homosexual scenes that should be left for adults who want to watch if they want to
We have to teach our children what we want to not what someone else has put on the screen
That’s good parenting
