'Westworld' actress Evan Rachel Wood called out DJ Khaled's misogynistic views after a video, which was taken during his 2015 interview, resurfaced on the internet. The controversial video saw Khaled saying that he would never perform oral sex on a woman because he believes he is the king and so is every other man. 

The old interview which was taken when Khaled made an appearance on "The Breakfast Club" radio show saw the music producer saying that a woman must appreciate a man especially if he was the breadwinner for the family. “A woman should praise the man — the king,” he said. “If you holding it down for your woman I feel like the woman should praise. And a man should praise the queen."

"But you know, my way of praising is called, ha-ha, ‘How was dinner?’, ‘You like the house you living in? You like all them clothes you getting? I’m taking care of your family, I’m taking care of my family…’ You know, I’m putting in the work.” When asked to clarify the statement he had made, Khaled said he doesn't perform oral sex on women and said, “Nahhh. Never! I don’t do that.”


The video resurfaced on the internet on Friday (May 4) and Evan could not stop herself from commenting. "You're seriously missing out man," she tweeted. "Take it from someone who has pride and thoroughly enjoys pleasuring women. You should grow up." 

Evan, who came out bisexual in 2011, did not tag Khaled but retweeted an article from The Root about the DJ's statements. In the latter part of the interview, Khaled can be seen saying that even though he will not perform oral sex on a woman, he expects them to "praise" the man and perform oral sex on him. "It's different rules for men. You gotta understand, we the king," he said. "There's some things that y'all might not wanna do, but it got to get done. I just can't do what you want me to do. I just can't."

After his comment resurfaced, many celebrities took to Twitter to express their disappointment. "Roseanne" producer Whitney Cummings said, "I know everyone is upset DJ Khaled won’t go down on his wife, but I feel like that isn’t close to the biggest disappointment his wife has around sex with him? I’m basing this mostly on the times I’ve seen him in a hot tub." While Popular 90s rock band Smashmouth said, "A King who doesn't is no king at all."
