Gattouz has sent social media into a frenzy after a short video appeared to show the adult content creator making a major statement about his sexuality, telling the camera, 'I'm officially gay'.
The clip spread across X on Tuesday, 8 September, where one widely shared post joked that 'Gattouz ends Jakipz and announces he's gay'. The reaction quickly prompted users to debate whether Gattouz was being serious or simply playing along with an online joke.
The video itself is very short, so there is an important limit to what can be confirmed. Gattouz clearly uses the words 'I'm officially gay', but the full conversation surrounding that line has not been made available in the viral clip. Without additional context from Gattouz himself, it would be unsafe to conclude with certainty that the statement represents a formal change in how he identifies.
Gattouz Makes Surprise Statement
In the video now being shared online, Gattouz sits in front of the camera wearing a yellow top before delivering the unexpected line. The clip lasts only seconds, with the words 'I'm officially gay' also appearing as subtitles across the bottom of the screen. The statement quickly became the main focus as screenshots and reposts circulated across social media.

One widely shared X post framed the moment as Gattouz 'ending' Jakipz, the online name used by Canadian creator Jake Andrich. That caption appears to be a joke connected to a separate online discussion involving Andrich rather than evidence that Gattouz and Andrich had an actual relationship or public feud.
Andrich had already been at the centre of an LGBTQ discussion just days earlier after comments from one of his livestreams spread online. He was asked whether he supported the LGBTQ community and answered, 'Not in particular', prompting criticism and debate about his comments and his relationship with a fanbase that includes many gay men.
He Previously Said He Was Straight
The new Gattouz clip stands out because it contrasts sharply with what he said publicly earlier this year. During a lengthy podcast conversation released in June, a host directly asked him whether he was 'fully straight'. Gattouz responded that he was 'fully straight' before saying he was not interested in making male-on-male content at that time.
The interview also focused heavily on his work with women and how he chooses partners for his adult content. Gattouz discussed working with female creators and described wanting a genuine sense of attraction and comfort rather than treating every shoot as a simple business arrangement. Nothing in that conversation indicated that he publicly identified as gay at the time.
His position on the type of content he might create appeared less firm later in the summer. In August, he was reported as saying that he could consider making adult content with men if the financial offer were high enough. However, willingness to perform in particular adult content does not establish a person's sexual orientation. Professional choices, sexual attraction and personal identity are separate issues and should not be treated as interchangeable.
Is Gattouz Really 'Done With Girls'?
The viral clip has naturally raised questions about whether Gattouz's new line means his previously stated interest in women has changed. However, there is currently no verified statement from him saying that he is 'done with girls', nor is there evidence that he has stopped working with or being attracted to women. His brief 'officially gay' comment is the only clear new statement contained in the circulating clip.
That makes some of the stronger social media reactions jokes rather than confirmed facts about his private life. Even if Gattouz was seriously identifying as gay in the video, the short clip does not explain whether he was adopting gay as a new label, describing a change in how he identifies or simply making a playful remark for the video. Until he provides more context, those details should not be assumed.
What can be established is that the line contrasts sharply with his public words only months earlier, when he described himself as 'fully straight'. That contrast helps explain why the new clip has attracted attention online, particularly among people already familiar with Gattouz and his adult-content career.
