DJ Khaled faces backlash for flaunting ice cream-filled freezer

The children of high-profile individuals live pretty different lives from their middle-class peers. Artists, celebrities, and influencers often have no problem spoiling their children. Rooms full of toys, huge playgrounds, and lavish birthday parties with celebrity guests frequently appear on famous parents' social media. For some caretakers, it may also be a way to fulfill the dreams of their inner child, who didn’t have access to everything they can now provide for their offspring.

American producer DJ Khaled is a happy father of two sons. The boys regularly travel with their father, play with him, and spend their time in a typical manner for children. Khaled proudly shows off his children and often thanks God for them. The artist ensures that his little ones lack nothing. A video has circulated on social media showing the Grammy winner displaying the contents of his freezer. Its contents are a dream come true for millions of children and adults alike.

DJ Khaled's special freezer is filled with ice cream. Any fan of cold desserts would find something they like, regardless of their preferred flavours. In the video, DJ Khaled asks his older son which ice cream he should choose. The final choice was an Oreo-flavoured dessert. A keen eye would also spot Ben & Jerry's and Häagen-Dazs ice creams in the freezer.

Many people note that the exceptionally active Instagram user Khaled has not recorded a single video addressing the genocide in the Gaza Strip. This is particularly disheartening given the music producer's Palestinian roots. One user on X wrote: "Whilst his people are literally starving to death he posts this video of his fridge full of ice cream and chocolate. He’s not put out 1 video, speaking and showing support and solidarity with his own people. DJ Khaled is a disgrace!" Many commenters share a similar opinion.
