Radio host told not to make Demi Lovato non-binary jokes returns after storming off show Justin Vallejo
Veteran shock jock Matt Siegel has uncancelled himself.
The Boston DJ returned to the airwaves a day after quitting live over being told he couldn’t joke about Demi Lovato coming out as non-binary.
The singer, 28, announced on Wednesday new pronouns of they/them as a non-binary person. It came following weeks of negative publicity over their feud with a Los Angeles ice cream shop over its “triggering” sugar-free cookies.
The comedian, who has been on air for 40 years, saw an opportunity to joke about the singer. But when told by station management he couldn’t make fun of their being non-binary, Mr Siegel stormed out with a mic drop diatribe that quickly went viral.
