Celebrities join Elton John’s #BoycottDolceGabbana campaign

accreditation
Dolce and Gabbana are officially the worst.

The designing duo have unleashed a world of hate after they stupidly decided to voice their backward, ignorant (yes, we are hating too) opinion on in-vitro fertilisation (IVF).

According to Channel24, the designers called children who were conceived through IVF “synthetic” and also opposed gay adoptions, despite being gay themselves.

Buzzfeed reports that the pair were quoted in Italian magazine, Panorama, about their opposition to gay couples adopting children.

The pair believe that the traditional family model should be the only one and that there are things that should not change.

This did not sit well with Sir Elton John, who called for everyone to boycott the designing house on his Instagram.

And Elton is not alone. Many people, including gay couples who have adopted children, people who were conceived through IVF, and celebrities are jumping on the #BoycottDolceGabbana bandwagon.

Here are some celeb reactions:

It’s like mother always said. If you have nothing nice to say Dolce and Gabbana, don’t say anything at all particularly if you are a world renowned brand with many celebrity customers.
