Social media users were shocked by an alleged comment made by 28-year-old comedian Matt Rife. As you can see below, the alleged comment was shared by influencer Bunny Hedaya.
Hedaya created a TikTok video to share the comment with her social media followers. The caption quickly emphasizes that Rife was allegedly targeting her 6-year-old child with his comment.
“Matt Rife started a fight with the wrong 6 year old,” the caption reads. “Buckle in.”
It appears that the alleged debacle began when Hedaya’s son responded to Rife’s new Netflix special Natural Selection. Rife creates a series of jokes surrounding astrology and how women seem to be attracted to it:
“Your future is determined by your own thoughts, opinions and actions. You are in complete control of how your future turns out,” Rife begins.
“It has nothing to do with stars, man. Just because Jupiter has a ring and you don’t, doesn’t mean that’s what you’re supposed to look up to for this magical advice.”
Hedaya’s son, who happens to be a fan of outer space, is said to have given the following response:
“Actually, it’s Saturn that has the rings. It has more [visible rings] also,” Hedaya’s son replied. “And, you’re mean to girls,” her son adds. The latter line was a response to Rife’s jokes regarding domestic violence.
Rife’s alleged response, which now appears to be deleted, includes the following line which was shared as a screenshot in Hedaya’s video:
“Jupiter also has [a] ring. OH!… and Santa [Claus] isn’t real,” Rife allegedly writes in response. “Your mom buys you presents with the money she makes on OnlyFans. Good luck.”

As mentioned, this has led to a wave of backlash against Rife. The comments on Hedaya’s video include many fans that were upset with Rife, calling him “a baby” and that he “couldn’t go any lower.”
As of this writing, via TMZ, Hedaya has not received an apology from Rife. However, she does note that her son didn’t receive the insult. According to her, he’s not exposed to social media at his current age. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any potential updates as we have them.
