Beauty In Black ‘actor’, Xavier Smalls says God will not allow the gays into heaven:

“Not because he [God] doesn’t love you, but he’s so holy he can’t dwell with unholy people. And that

In the footage, originally broadcast in early February, the actor is seen discussing religion and morality before responding to a viewer question about LGBT people.

“That goes for other sinners. Scoffers, mockers, liars, all things that are an abomination. It’s not just the LGBT… these are all sins that God doesn’t tolerate.”

Elsewhere in the clip, the actor stated that while God “loves all his children,” those who “live in sin” would ultimately face consequences in the afterlife.

The resurfaced video has triggered widespread criticism across social media, with many calling out the remarks as harmful, especially given the show’s inclusive casting.

The Netflix drama has featured several LGBTQ+ talents since its debut, including Ts Madison.

As of writing, no word from the actor.
