Jerrod Carmichael Opens Up About His Sexuality in HBO Special 'Home Videos'

Jerrod Carmichael got very personal during his HBO special.

The 31-year-old actor and comedian released part one of his special Home Videos, where he sat down for informal and intimate conversations with his family.

Jerrod returned home to North Carolina, where he sat down with his mother Cynthia. During their conversation, Jerrod asked his mom to reflect on the affair her husband once had while they were still together.

Then Jerrod asked her if she ever had feelings for women. She said no, but it did lead Jerrod to reveal that he has had relationships with men.

“I’ve hooked up with dudes before,” Jerrod shared.

Cynthia then responded, “Well, OK. That’s your option. I like men.”

Their conversation then ended shortly after that, and Jerrod didn’t further didn’t discuss his sexuality.
