Antoine Dodson Prayed The Gay Away

 Antoine “Hide your kids, hide your wife” Dodson became an Internet sensation after his news interview went viral, spawning the “Bedroom Intruder” song, costume, catch phrase and just about everything else.. Like most viral stars, Dodson’s 15-minutes of fame ran its course, but he’s been up to a lot since he last debuted his luxurious weaveon late night TV.

According to HipHollywood, Antoine, who was openly gay (emphasis on “was”) underwent a spiritual enlightenment process as a “true chosen Hebrew Israelite descendant of Juda” under which he renounced his sexuality. Sounds crazy right? Well, Antoine has since fathered a baby with his wife and no longer xondisers himself gay. HH caught up with Antoine, who had this to say about his lifestyle change:

“The person that I’m with … We’ve known each other for six plus years. We were friends in the lifestyle, going to clubs and stuff like that. But the more we started to hang together we just actually started dating. Then we just did it, it just happened. We’ve been together ever since,” he explained.

“At the beginning it was like that. But anything, when there’s a change, you always have the memories of the old life,” he said. “I still hang with my friends. I still have my friends, I see their lifestyle and I’m like ‘oh it’s fun.’ But then I realize I love my family.”

If you say so.
