His comments have gone viral, and not in the good way

An actor from Euphoria has rattled fans after saying he has “visions” of Amber heard “beating me up”, which he thinks is hot.

Dominic Fike, whose breakout role came as Elliot alongside Zendaya in Euphoria, has annoyed fans while performing for college students at Northwestern University on Saturday, May 21.

“Yo, I’m just gonna come straight out and say it. I’m gonna say it. I’m gonna be real with y’all,” the 26-year-old musician and actor said. “I think Amber Heard is hot, dude.”

“I don’t know. I know it’s not the popular opinion, and I know it’s not the focus at the moment, dude, but I’ve been having these visions of her,” he said, before adding “beating me up” as he paced across the stage.

“I think it’s hot,” he added.

The clip was shared by @popcrave on Twitter and has since received nearly 4k quote tweets, most of which are not very polite.

“I think men should master the art of shutting up,” wrote one Twitter user. “It’s groundbreaking stuff to just shut up. Be quiet. Play your silly jingle and go home.”

Another said: “Oh yeah he’s fucking insane.”

In a lengthy message, another person scathed: “Regardless on how anyone feels about that whole trial, fetishizing domestic abuse is absolutely NOT FUCKING COOL. This shit is NOT cute. This is exactly the reason why it makes it harder for men that actually get abused by women to speak up, this shit right here says it all.”

Fairfax County court heard closing statements from Amber Heard, 36, and Johnny Depp’s legal team today, May 27.
