Chet Hanks Speaks Out After Accidentally Spawning White Supremacist Meme
It’s only Wednesday, but Tom Hanks’ son Chet Hanks has already had quite a week in the press.
Just after revealing on a podcast that his love for cocaine was so extreme that even “cokeheads” told him to “chill,” the Hollywood star’s son is now having to clarify what he meant by “white boy summer” in a series of 2021 social media posts and subsequent song and rap music video, now that the phrase has been co-opted by white supremacist groups.
The questionable phrase was a play on words from rapper Megan Thee Stallion’s “Hot Girl Summer” song from 2019.
