Nash Grier, a 16-year-old who is somehow the most followed person on Vine, is seen in this video yelling a gay slur. And we mean full-on yelling, angrily.
It's pretty shocking. The video, which he posted in April and quickly deleted, surfaced only after Tyler Oakley, another social media star, posted it online.
The Vine clip features a TV commercial about HIV, in which several men seek to debunk the notion that the disease that leads to AIDS is "a gay thing."
Grier clearly does not agree with the message of the PSA:
Nash Grier Gay Slur
Play it yourself if you want to see exactly what he says.
It's not clear how Oakley got his hands on Nash Grier's stunning Vine reaction to the HIV ad - whether he was kidding or not - and was appalled, blasting it out.
TMZ then shared the clip as well.
Grier, owner of some of the most-viewed snippets in the history of Vine as well as the most followers, has yet to address the controversy on his account.
Few celebrities are as vocally opposed to same sex marriage as former Growing Pains star Kirk Cameron.
