Chloe Bailey Faced Backlash For Her "Swarm" Sex Scene — Here's How She Responded
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
As you have probably seen, Swarm, starring Dominique Fishback, is currently the biggest show right now. The Donald Glover-directed project follows a young fan's unhealthy fixation with their favorite R&B star.
Because Swarm is inspired by stan culture, the show has been discussed heavily on Twitter. Like, within a few days, there's already been a new meme format:
Gays in the 1940s when you said something mean about Judy Garland
But probably the most discussed element of the show was Chloe Bailey and Damson Idris' sex scene. This clip alone had 27 million views:
Donald Glover's new show "Swarm" just dropped on Amazon Prime and there's a sex scene between Damson Idris & Chloe Bailey
Some people criticized how explicit the scene was:
We honestly didn’t need to see Chloe get the back shots tho. Lol they could a been making out or sumthin 🤷🏾♀️ #Swarm
25M views on the disgusting sex scene with Chloe and Damson. People are watching it like it's p*rn, but we are puritanical for saying that explicit sex scenes are unnecessary and that Chloe shouldn't have done it ? Okay
But most people defended the singer and the scene:
Chloe and Damson were NOT actually having sex in that scene. They were ACTING. Y’all cannot be this dumb. Is this your first time watching a sex scene in a series or movie? Sex scenes are choreographed and fake. GROW UP. https://t.co/P67BVE4A3x
them choosing chloe and damson to do an explicit sex scene two minutes into the show is perfect. look how many people are tuning in just because of that
Chloe has opened up about the scene in an interview with Deadline. "I remember when I first read the script, I was like, 'Oh this is insane. This is incredible.' I cried. Then I remembered, 'You gotta do that sex scene, girl,'" Chloe said. "As open and liberal as I am with my body, I was very scared because I haven’t had that many partners.
