Controversies & Scandals

The Colombian YouTuber stirred up a major controversy on social media networks when she stated in a video that according to her religious beliefs, it was not good to be homosexual but she still “tolerated” them. Some fellow YouTubers immediately called her up and confronted her for her negative comments on the LGBTIQ community. Many Latino influencers who have openly declared themselves homosexuals and several of her channel’s viewers who are struggling to break away from the stereotypes and taboos surrounding homosexuality were deeply hurt by her comments. Kika soon uploaded another video in which she apologised for her “mistake” of using the word “tolerate”, and explained that she meant to say that she “respects” the LGBTIQ community.
