The 37-year-old YouTuber made the comments on non-binary pronouns during a podcast interview on Valentine's Day, calling the non-binary pronouns 'stupid.'

AceShowbiz - Jeffree Star has defended his controversial comments on pronoun culture. The makeup mogul took to Twitter to react to the backlash from his comments on non-binary people.

On Wednesday, February 22, the YouTube star responded to a Daily Loud tweet about his initial comments about the using of they/them pronoun that earned him criticism. "I said what I said. It's not that complicated," Jeffree said, defending himself.

Not stopping there, Jeffree stressed his views in follow-up tweets. Responding to a user saying that he "identified as alien at one point," Jeffree wrote, "An alien is a NOUN… and clearly I was being sarcastic when I said that. I honestly feel bad for how stupid some of these people are… I pray for them daily."

He added in a separate tweet, "I wish I could invent a concealer that could cover up someone's stupidity."

Jeffree made the comments on non-binary pronouns during a podcast interview on Valentine's Day. "You're not 'they' and 'them,' " he told NFL player Taylor Lewan on the "Bussin' With the Boys" podcast. "You're trans, you're male or you're female."

The 37-year-old star went on to say that the pronoun culture came from people being "bored," especially during the pandemic. " 'They' and 'them' and all that extra s**t that we added during the pandemic. Because everyone is so bored on their f**king houses they just started to make up more s**t," he said. "And people get so mad when I say that. How are you a 'they?' What the f**k does that mean?"

"It's stupid is what it is. But you need someone like me that looks like me to say it. Because if you say it, it turns into, 'You're homophobic, you hate trans people, you hate gays,' and it's just how you feel," the beauty guru, who is openly gay, continued. "You don't hate anyone, you just think it's stupid. That's where the conservatives like me, cause I'm just real," he added.
