On Tuesday, Boosie hopped on social media to give his less that favorable opinion of the movie The Color Purple.
According to the Louisiana rapper he went to see the movie that was released on Christmas day with his daughters but he had to walk out because it was ‘pushing the ? narrative’.
“I HAD TO WALK OUT THIS COLOR PURPLE MOVIE ( N TWO OTHER OLDER COUPLES WALKED OUT ALSO.),” Boosie posted. “BECAUSE I HAD MY LITTLE GIRLS WITH ME N IT SEEMED LIKE A [rainbow emoji] LOVE STORY GOOD ACTING BUT WHOEVER WROTE THE SCRIPT IS PUSHING THE NARRATIVE HARD AS A PARENT I WILL NOT LET MY LITTLE GIRL WATCH THIS FILM.”

The newest adaptation of The Color Purple features a star-studded cast including Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks, Colman Domingo, Corey Hawkins, Gabriella Wilson “H.E.R.”, Halle Bailey, and more.
The film centers on Celie, the main character, who, after being impregnated by an abusive spouse, discovers resilience and empowerment by engaging in a romantic relationship with a female jazz singer, leading her to break free from her husband’s abuse.
According to XXL Mag Boosie’s feelings about the LGBTQ community are well documented.
Back in September, he admitted he turned down a $250,000 performance fee to take the stage at a LGBTQ event.
“I’m not real for money. In that case, I would just sell my soul for anything,” Boosie said during an interview on The Danza Project. “I’ve been offered a quarter-million to go perform at an [LGBTQ] community event. Big money. I told them I have nothing against it at all. But that’s not what I push and that’s not what I believe in.”
“A lot of people get that [misunderstood] because they act like I hate them,” Boosie continued. “No. My assistant is gay. This man deals with millions of dollars for me. I trust gay people more than regular people.”
Back in 2016, Boosie opined that television is forcing kids to be gay, which might have been part of his reasoning for ditching The Color Purple film with his daughter.
Boosie is now trending for his reaction:
So yall more upset that Mrs Celie and Shug Avery was exploring their sexuality but didn’t draw the line at her being molested at 14 by her stepfather and having his kids?
This really shows me why yall still let that “Fresh” uncle come to the family reunion but throw your Gay…

Boosie is so dumb. I'm embarrassed to be from the same city as him.
I've never read the book or the movie and I still knew there was a same sex love plot.
Just dumb.
