James Charles claims several NFL stars are \u201cin his DMs\u201d after TikTok drama YouTube: James Charles\/WikiMedia Commons: All-Pro ReelsJames Charles hit back at Chase Claypool after the NFL star shunned his latest viral TikTok video, and claimed it\u2019s no big deal since other players in his league are \u201calready in his DMs waiting.\u201d James Charles started the new year with a viral TikTok video of him shaking his butt to a song\u2019s beat. It\u2019s the first video he posted since copping backlash for his two Christmas dance videos. Fortunately, there wasn\u2019t anything controversial about this one, at least, not right away. It\u2019s fun and harmless and has already been played more than 20 million times and liked by almost 4 million people. However, NFL star Chase Claypool wasn\u2019t one of them. The Pittsburgh Steeler\u2019s Wide Receiver was less than impressed with the video. He shared the clip on his own TikTok account. But when the butt shake is about to begin, it pans to him, saying, \u201cNope. Mm-hmm. Nope. Not today,\u201d instead.

Plus, he went to the trouble of actually sharing it on his account, so most people assume nothing is malicious about it. Still, others have accused him of being homophobic. https:\/\/twitter.com\/defnoodles\/status\/1345878724349050880?s=21 James left a comment shortly after. His tone didn\u2019t seem too serious either, but he struck back with a vengeance and made an extraordinary claim. \u201cThat\u2019s fine,\u201d he said. \u201cOther players in your league are already in my DMs waiting.\u201d He didn\u2019t mention who they were, and there\u2019s no way to know whether his claims are valid. But since no players in the league have ever publicly outed themselves as LBGTQ+ while playing, it\u2019s led to some speculation about who they might be. https:\/\/twitter.com\/defnoodles\/status\/1345878730002993154?s=21 In the end, though, it doesn\u2019t seem like either of them are taking the interaction too seriously. However, some fans think James was offended and made his comment to defend his ego. Either way, the discussion will probably continue for quite some time, and it will be interesting to see whether either of them will add more fuel to the fire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
