Radio talk show host DJ Mo Twister will not apologize to U-Kiss and their fans for his Twitter remarks about the boy band looking like lesbians.
In a blog entry, DJ Mo defended his remarks, telling fans that “what I wrote was my opinion meant to critique their fashion sense.”
He called fans who demanded for his apology as 12-year-olds, hypocritical and parasites.
“Since I posted these comments, I have received thousands of demands for a public apology and equally large amounts of death threats.”
DJ Mo tweeted after watching U-Kiss perform on “Party Pilipinas” last March 28 as part of the boy band’s Philippine promo tour.
“I stand corrected. These K-pop guys don’t look gay, they look like lesbians,” he wrote.
The comment enraged fans who demanded that he immediately apologize for his disparaging remarks. The fans set up a Facebook page for this. As of this writing, the fan page now has 5,876 members.
Before his blog entry, DJ Mo tweeted that “Some UKISS fans are upset I said they looked like lesbians. What’s wrong w/ that? I like lesbians. My aunt is lesbian, they look like my aunt.”
In his blog, DJ Mo said, “I felt it’s in the same line as how critics dissect the Best and Worst Dressed at awards night. Look at their photo and be realistic, I am not off on my assessment – those dudes dress and look like chicks. If you find that offensive, why?”
