Arnold Schwarzenegger faced a social media hazing after his odd response to son Patrick Schwarzenegger’s nude scene on Season 3 of “The White Lotus.” “I’m watching your show, and I’m


watching your butt sticking out there,” Arnold said in a viral clip from their Variety “Actors on Actors” interview published Tuesday. “And all of a sudden, I see the weenie,” he continued


as Patrick laughed. “What is going on here? I mean, this is crazy.” EXPLORE MORE “And then I said to myself, ‘Well, Arnold, hello. You did the same thing in ‘Conan’ and in ‘Terminator’ and


all of those films. You were naked, so don’t complain about it,'” he added. “But it was a shock to me that you were following my footsteps that closely.” Fans on X were taken aback by


Arnold’s candor on the topic. “They are so wild and weird and creepy,” one person commented. “Absolutely weird and inappropriate,” another agreed. “This should not even have been talked


about privately let alone on a public platform.” Others defended the former California governor, chalking up his remarks to “dad” humor. “Arnold’s just being a dad — hilarious and awkward in


the best way. The weenie comment got me,” an X user wrote. “You gotta admire the bluntness though. No sugar-coating, just ‘Yo, what’s going on here?!’ That’s the kinda dad commentary


reality TV NEEDS more of,” a second netizen chimed in. WANT MORE CELEBRITY AND POP CULTURE NEWS? Start your day with Page Six Daily. THANKS FOR SIGNING UP! Another person joked: “Looks like


Patrick took ‘show business’ a little too literally! But, when your dad’s the Terminator, even your nudity gets a performance review!” This isn’t the first time the former bodybuilder has


addressed the topic of his son’s nude scene in the wildly popular HBO series. Arnold, 77, revealed on Instagram in February that he actually wasn’t shocked by Patrick’s onscreen nudity.


“What a show! I could claim to be surprised to find out he has a nude scene, but what can I say – the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” the action star quipped in the caption. Arnold


also urged fans to tune in, teasing, “Trust me.” An embarrassed Patrick, 31, later responded to his dad’s comment via X, simply writing, “Parents,” alongside a pair of facepalm emojis.
