Country singer Shane McAnally has faced backlash over a video he posted to Instagram showing his five-month-old son asking for "mama". The video, titled "6 week old homophobic baby," was viewed as a joke by some, with McAnall stating that it was taken out of context and that he was "appalled" by some of the negative comments. Critics argued that this was not the first time McAnal had used the baby as a social media joke, with some calling it "the most horrifying video I've ever seen in my life".
