EVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: 'DWTS' star Harry Jowsey is currently receiving immense hate online for homophobic comments he made two years ago.

During an October 2021 episode of his podcast 'Tap In with Harry Jowsey', he used a homophobic slur toward YouTube star James Charles. 

At that point in time, Harry said, "James Charles is trying to f**k me. He's just some f****t."

However, it seems like the fans are still bashing him for his remarks that have surfaced online again.

An X user said, "Harry Jowsey is a homophobe btw, don't vote for him."

Another user went on to say, "People finally remember that Harry said a whole a** homophobic slur, I see."

One internet user added, "Words that slip out are your true thoughts."

Another critic noted, "You can't 'let such a word slip out' if you don't think it or speak these words behind closed doors."

A social media user chimed in, "He really took it down and thought we would forget about it."

A comment read, "I’m so tired of people using slurs and then only apologizing when they’re caught and there’s backlash."

Harry Jowsey issued apology for past controversial comments

After the podcast came out in 2021, Harry issued an apology for using homophobic slurs against James Charles on Instagram. 

At the time, Jowsey told his Instagram followers, "I just wanted to come on here and say that I am extremely embarrassed about myself, my actions, and the fact that I let such a word slip out."

He went on to say, "I just want to say to James, my friend, that I said this word about. I am deeply sorry. We have mended things in private, but I just wanted to come on here and say that to the rest of the LGBTQ+ community that I'm going to take some time to educate myself on this and apologize."

He added, "This word doesn't belong in my vocabulary, and it shouldn't be spoken about."
