Conservative Figure’s Alleged Lesbian Past Just Became An Internet Obsession, And The Memes Are Already Brutal

Wait 5 sec.

Candace Owens has found herself at the center of a fresh wave of online speculation after an X user posted a lengthy thread alleging that several lesbian dating profiles from 2008-2009 were connected to her.One profile mentioned in the thread used the username “Candamo429,” which the account holder claimed matched the 37-year-old far-right commentator’s name, Candace Amber Owens, and her April 29 birthday.The username was used for a 2008 YouTube account associated with Owens’ time at the University of Rhode Island, a detail that is publicly documented.Other accounts highlighted in the post included “Cdot429” and “letmelickyou13.” The former allegedly described its owner as a lesbian and listed Stamford, Connecticut, which the X account identified as Owens’ hometown. The latter described its user as bisexual while indicating an exclusive interest in women. Its IP address was also allegedly traced to the University of Rhode Island.One of the most controversial allegations in the thread, however, concerned an account called “collegef**k5,” which the X user also claimed belonged to Owen.According to the post, Owens logged into the account in January 2022, years after her 2019 marriage to British businessman George Farmer. The account, therefore, accused Owens of being unfaithful to her husband with a female partner and characterized the claim as inconsistent with her public image as a traditional Christian and devout wife. The allegations remain unverified in their entirety. Nevertheless, the claims quickly became fodder for social media humor.One widely circulated joke referenced the 2005 film Brokeback Mountain, with a post reading, “Candace Owens starring in BrokeBlack Mountain soon, I guess.” Another meme used the phrase “Release Candace Owens lesbo files,” parodying the language surrounding information about Jeffrey Epstein, a New York financier who was convicted for exploiting underage girls in 2008.A third reaction featured the viral “Why are you gay?” clip, which originated from a 2012 Ugandan television interview in which host Simon Kaggwa Njala posed the question to LGBTQ activist Pepe Julian Onziema.A fourth, meanwhile, paired the caption “Candace Owens denying lesbian allegations” with a scene from Nathan Fielder’s A24 documentary You Can See Everything, in which Elizabeth Holmes is asked whether she is deceiving him. Holmes responds that she has nothing to deceive him about.Owens, for her part, has a history of publicly expressing opposition to homosexual relationships. During a July 2024 interview with Don Lemon, she was asked about gay marriage and responded, “It’s a sin.”In January of the same year, she also wrote on X that “gender dysphoria is a mental disorder” and criticized the broader LGBTQ+ movement.#1© Photo: Prisonmitch#2© Photo: DaniGGerman#3© Photo: CBHeresy#4© Photo: jayroo69#5© Photo: JayTC53#6© Photo: isaacdecastro#7© Photo: H_MitchellPhoto#8© Photo: tvoffs#9© Photo: JayTC53#10no one:absolutely no one:candace owens: pic.twitter.com/rfyXCNExo0— wyatt.today (@wyatttoday) September 29, 2026 #11The concept of Candace Owen being dl pic.twitter.com/pvTRsRrDqJ— bret easton ellis shady facts (@Mobiuspayola) September 29, 2026 #12Me waiting for my husband to get home so I can tell him @RealCandaceO is a lesbian, knowing full well he doesn’t care but will act invested to please me. pic.twitter.com/rvvuRPYdes— North in the South (@Dsl429) September 28, 2026 #13Erika kirk finding out Candace owens came out as a lesbian: pic.twitter.com/ttM4MOM9Ab— hose world (@isdatbeef) September 28, 2026 #14pic.twitter.com/30VMQy4YBt— Adolf Elmer (@adolfelmer) September 29, 2026 #15https://t.co/gdAzAxPDbf pic.twitter.com/jjS13srENs— MAGA 4 Life (@MAGA4Life_62) September 28, 2026 #16Candace Owens to Erika Kirk pic.twitter.com/DsAvzW4a4u— 𝖊𝖙𝖍𝖆𝖓 (@fckutalmabout) September 29, 2026 #17the woman who coined "fake and gay" is herself both fake and gay https://t.co/D7Z74yvikh pic.twitter.com/3EpOENsW9R— Patriot Ganyu ☦️ (@deathbladechan) September 28, 2026 #18Candace Owens denying the lesbian allegations. pic.twitter.com/b1ExFyavR0— Cinema Shogun (@CinemaShogun) September 29, 2026 #19“We’re all thinkin’ it?!!” pic.twitter.com/my6QU5exHW— NΛTLY DΞNISΞ (@NatlyDenise_) September 28, 2026 #20Candace Owens randomly being bisexual pic.twitter.com/4fNhK3DlSo— Lesbiana Grande (@sonjamorganstan) September 29, 2026 #21But things do make a little more sense now. pic.twitter.com/as1xz5ypm5— Monica Rodewald (@TouchStone313) September 28, 2026
