Rob Schneider weighs in on Garth Brooks' Bud Light drama

Rob Schneider hopes the beer is chasing Garth Brooks’ blues away.

The 59-year-old “The Hot Chick” actor didn’t mince words while addressing the continued controversy brewing for Bud Light after “The Thunder Roll” singer admitted he’d sell the beer at his as-yet unopened bar in Nashville.

Brooks faced swift backlash from fans after announcing “every brand of beer” will be available once his Friends In Low Places Bar & Honky Tonk opens this summer. Bud Light’s parent company has seen a steady decline in sales since April when an Anheuser-Busch marketing campaign featuring transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney went viral.

Fox Nation’s “Woke Up in America” star said in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital that Brooks will likely think twice in the future when it comes to picking a side, or a beer, for that matter.

The Bud Light backlash has seen its fair share of supporters after the beer giant sent trans activist Mulvaney a personalized pack of beer with the influencer’s likeness as part of an ad for the company’s March Madness contest.

“I get it, everybody’s got their opinions. But inclusiveness is always going to be me,” the country crooner countered. 

“I think diversity is the answer to the problems that are here and the answer to the problems that are coming. So I love diversity. All-inclusive, so all are welcome. I understand that might not be other people’s opinions, but that’s OK, man. They have their opinions, they have their beliefs. I have mine.”
