Randy Rainbow’s Racist & Transphobic Tweets Resurface Online

Comedian Randy Rainbow has come under scrutiny after an entire
a spreadsheet of his old tweets went viral online. The log contains over 60 tweets with racist, transphobic, and anti-semitic language.

Rainbow became an Internet star over the past few months due to the popularity of political parody music videos. His most recent song, “Kamala,” which he sang to the music of the 1960 Broadway musical, Camelot, has been viewed nearly 900,000 times on YouTube, and over 1.2 million times on Twitter. The 39-year-old comedian’s YouTube Channel, where he has 565,000 subscribers, earned him a 2020 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Short Form Variety Series, an award he was also nominated for in 2019.

While numerous celebrities have retweeted Rainbow’s parody videos, including Eric McCormack, Mark Hamill, and Henry Winkler, he’s now being called for “cancellation” by fans just discovering his old tweets. Rainbow has since attempted to delete all of his controversial tweets, most of which were published between 2010 and 2016.

In the early months of COVID-19, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo become a heralded leader of his state, and to express his thank you, Rainbow released a video entitled, “ANDY!” In the parody video, the YouTube star croons, “Andy, can’t ya see I’m in quarantine. A nervous wreck, and scurred as heck of COVID-19.”

“You bring hope when I can’t cope… If we’re on Earth, for what’s it’s worth, I hope they make you king. You run my state, while I gain weight, with grace and dignity.”

“The way you manage to lead and inform without scaring the living s*** out of me, or straying from the facts, and still find time to nurture my delicate spirit… You’re wise level-headed, eloquent, and sexy in a time when the country needs it most.”
