Part 2/13:
During an interview promoting The Hunger Games prequel, Jimmy Fallon was accused of transphobia after calling Hunter Schafer, a trans actor, "Bud." Fallon’s use of the term, commonly regarded as a friendly, informal way to address someone, sparked outrage, with critics claiming it as a slur. The controversy was further fueled when a clip surfaced showing Fallon misusing the term, arguably out of habit, possibly recalling impersonations or general friendly dialogue.
