The hip-hop trio reportedly refused to perform with drag queens during their performance with Katy Perry on the comedy sketch show.

AceShowbiz - Migos has been accused of homophobia. The Atlanta trio reportedly refused to perform with drag queens during Katy Perry's performance of "Bon Appetit" on "Saturday Night Live" on May 20. More drag queens were initially set to perform alongside Perry, but the crew had to let only a few perform because Quavo, Offset and Takeoff "weren't comfortable" with them.

"I was one of the performers on that table with them the whole time, during the rehearsal for 3 days," a source claimed. "On the day of the filming, when I got there, I was told to leave. I wasn't on the set at the time, but we were asking what happened. They said it was because Migos doesn't feel comfortable with having drag queens there."

The rumor could be true, after all, as during the performance, a number of drag queens were sitting far away from the hip-hop group. Another source shared, "I heard it from the stylist. They changed the queens out in the 'Bon Appetit' number, and they didn't seem too thrilled during rehearsal either, with us there."

An insider even revealed that the queens weren't invited to the afterparty, saying, "I work at 'SNL' and the rumors are true! Migos held up rehearsal because they 'weren't comfortable with the drag queens' being there. They were initially more drag queens on the set for that song, but after Migos threw a fit, Katy Perry's team removed some of the queens from the performance. Additionally, Katy Perry didn't invite any of the queens to the afterparty... So, none of them were allowed in."

Back in February, Migos made homophobic remarks about rapper I LOVE MAKONNEN who came out as a gay. The group questioned people who supported their fellow rapper's sexuality. While Offset said, "This world is not right," Quavo chimed in, "That's wack, bro."

The group fueled their homophobic speculations by saying that they wouldn't perform in a gay club. When asked about whether they would perform in a gay club with Makonnen, things got awkward. But then Offset bluntly replied, "Nah. Salute to everybody that chose their route, I just ain't gonna do that."
