The Hit Network‘s Loren Barry recounted on the Hot Hits show she hosts with Nic Kelly, a homophobic slur hurled at her friends over the weekend, which she has reported to police.
Loren said:
“I burst into tears. I’ve never in my life, and I know that this stuff goes on but I have never in my life been so shaken by something that has happened in front of my face, in front of my eyes. I was crying. They turned to me and they said, What? Don’t cry like this happens all the time, which made me even more upset, because this is 2025”
Loren went on to say:
“An older man was behind us and witnessed the whole thing and was HORRIFIED and said “on behalf of humanity I am so sorry”… so that restored my faith in humanity slightly .. but f***ing hell”
The Hot Hits with Nic and Lauren airs across the Hit Network from 7-10pm Monday to Thursday and 3-5pm Saturdays.
