Did Diplo Just Come Out As His Plane Made an Emergency Landing? (Or Was He Quoting a Line a from a Movie?)

By James St. James on August 7, 2019 10:51 am

The internet is all abuzz over an Instagram post made by super DJ/music producer Diplo as his plane made an emergency landing due to a heavily cracked windshield.

As the plane began plummeting and pilots donned oxygen masks, Diplo connected to the plane’s WiFi and sent out the following Instagram post 

“Dear Columbus and Minneapolis, my jet window just cracked open and the pilots are wearing masks so I’m not sure I’ll make it to my show tonight,” he wrote, adding: “Also I never told you this but I might be gay…”

Well, OK then…

He later posted an update after landing safely, saying: “We landed and no one died I still might be gay but I’m definitely not going to [fly] any more jets…

But…. did he REALLY just come out or was it a big joke? Specifically, was he referencing the iconic plane scene in the Cameron Crowe movie Almost Famous in which the band members all make startling confessions as their plane is about to crash, culminating with the drummer screaming “I’m gay!” (It was considered extremely funny at the time – HO! HO! CAN YOU IMAGINE?! – and it’s the kind of movie every rock star has seen a hundred thousand times and probably quotes extensively.)

Watch the scene below and judge for yourself (The “I’m gay!” confession comes around the 4:00 mark).

Don’t get me wrong, it would be nice if it were true and Diplo would be a lovely addition to the family, but I’m just a bit cynical about EVERYTHING these days. Let me know what you think in the Facebook comment section.
