Social media stars the Island Boys have attempted to justify their incestuous kiss.
Florida bothers Flyysoulja and Kodiyakredd kickstarted their influencer career in 2021 after a video of themselves kissing one another broke the internet.
The young men, whose mother kicked them out of the house when they were 18 due to poor behaviour, went particularly viral on TikTok at the time.
Sort of a natural progression in the modern world was then to launch an OnlyFans account to monetise their new-found fame.

But as you can imagine, a video of two brothers kissing each other got heavily criticised on the net.
Responding to the backlash, they said: "We’re twin brothers, we came out of the womb together, we grew up together.
"It’s not really disgusting if it’s twins. Your friend, you don’t really know him like that."
The pair admitted they 'couldn’t like, look at each other' for a while, but insisted 'it wasn't that big of a deal.'

The siblings - who were in and out of jail when they were younger - also released their viral song 'I'm an Island Boy' in that same year, which contributed to their financial success.
However, what the internet was focusing on was how the boys kissed each other again, and again.
I mean it was a proper make out session.
As the duo have gone on to make money in various different ways, Kodiyakredd made his influencer boxing debut over the weekend.

Taking to an MMA ring in Miami, the brother lost out to streamer Oblivion in the fight promoted by Adin Ross' Brand Risk 006.
At a press conference before the fight, things got heated when the Island Boys were forced to defend their money-making strategy.
“I saw him kiss his brother,” one panelist said as Oblivion added: “You kissed your brother, bro.”
Kodiyakredd then replied: “For millions of dollars, bro,” revealing that he's made $6 million and his sibling has earned $8 million as a result.

“The f**k? You think I’ma do that for free?” he added.
Over on X, one person commented: "No amount of money would’ve made me do this with my siblings."
"Don’t worship money, or you’ll end up on the internet explaining why you put your brother’s c**k in your mouth," a second added.

While another clearly was buying it: "6m my a** where it come from who paid for that?"
