Todrick addresses the queer community in lengthy letter shared to social media:

“When our LGBTQ+ show was announced you'd think any pushback would've come from the church or conservatives. But a closer look would show you that the call was coming from inside the house.” pic.twitter.com/FnrLshSuOm

Todrick Hall's reality show The Real Friends of WeHo is getting a lot of backlash. The show follows Hall and five other "famous" gay men living in west Hollywood. VH1 shortened RuPaul's Drag Race episodes from 60 minutes (with an air time of 90 minutes) to 40 minutes (with an air time of 60 minutes) Viewers also criticized it for depicting gay men as catty and shallow. (that might just be how Todrick naturally is, though.) To address the backlash, he published a 9-page handwritten letter on his social media.
