Josh Brolin Knows All About Those Thirsty Thanos Memes
Wait…is Thanos a gay icon? Well, that’s what the internet was claiming at least…
As our friends from Queerty point out, earlier this month, “Gay Thanos” was trending on Twitter because according to some fans, the colors of the stones on the Infinity Gauntlet worn by the infamous Marvel Cinematic Universe villain resemble those of the Pride flag.
As expected, Stan Twitter had a field day with this revelation, and all sorts of memes proclaiming Thanos an LGBTQ+ icon ensued:
One of the most infamous examples of the memery that resulted from the theory of Thanos being gay included a pic of him posing seductively on a bed, with his huge ‘ole purple peach out in the open for all to enjoy…
And if you thought all this chaos was just an insular moment for Marvel fans, think again! The memes even got around to Oscar-nominated actor Josh Brolin, who famously voiced Thanos in the Avengers films.
“I don’t remember having this photograph taken,” Josh captioned, reposting the infamous ThanAss pic on his Instagram account. “But then again there are a lot of things I don’t remember.”
We love when celebs are good sports about things like this! Oh internet, please never change!
