Derren Brown out-sasses homophobic Twitter troll
By Josh Haggis
Derren Brown tweeted the perfect response after becoming the target of a homophobic twitter troll this week.
Despite Brown being open about his sexuality for a number of years now, it appeared that the Twitter user in question had only just discovered that the famous illusionist is an out and proud gay man.
In a succession of tweets, @HossamAlyyy bombarbed Brown with homophobic slurs, saying that he was “really shocked” to find out about his “gayness and shit”.
Check out the tweets below:
After spotting the homophobic remarks, Brown tweeted a brilliantly sassy retort:
.@HossamAlyyy I’m very flattered you’re attracted to me (if I read between the lines correctly) but I’m not looking for a bf right now x
