Tan Taşçı, who has a wide audience with his songs like "Yalan" (Lie), "Benim Gibi Olmayacak" (It Won't Be Like Me), and "Nasıl Seveceğim?" (How Will I Love?), came to the agenda this time not with his music career but with statements he made on a program he attended. Taşçı, who was a guest on Hülya Avşar's YouTube program, stated that he has been vegan for a long time.
The singer, who stated that he has adopted a vegan lifestyle for approximately five years, explained how this change has positively affected his life. "My life became much lighter after I became vegan," said Taşçı, also sharing his views on animal products.
During the program, Taşçı made striking statements regarding fish consumption, saying, "People who eat fish get poisoned. You eat halva at a fish restaurant to get rid of the poisoning. Eating fish makes us like fish. We lose some of our minds, our memory." He then added about eggs, "An egg is technically a chicken's period. Scientifically, this is very dangerous."
While Tan Taşçı's statements quickly became a trending topic on social media, some social media users commented, "Brother, you should keep singing." Other users mocked Taşçı's statements with humorous posts.
