Jason Derulo says his penis was edited out of 'Cats'

We're less than a month from the end of the year, yet 2019 has still not tired of plying us with horrors. In an interview on Andy Cohen Live, Jason Derulo confirmed the host's speculation that his significant phallus was edited out of upcoming nightmare fodder Cats.

Apparently cats can have a little salami, but Cats can not.

"125 percent," said Derulo. "I could see it [had been removed] in the trailer, for sure."

Cohen's question was prompted by a recent photo of Derulo which was removed by Instagram for violating "community guidelines on nudity or sexual activity." The singer wore nothing but a small pair of black underwear in the forbidden image, wet enough that it clung to his body to reveal an improbably large trouser snake.

From this, Cohen correctly surmised equipment of Derulo's size could not be concealed by the tights he wore during filming. "It was actually hilarious," said Derulo, recounting how he basically ran around with his dick out for four months.

On one hand, I'd like to thank Cats' hardworking special effects team for ensuring audiences aren't exposed to Derulo's furry bratwurst as he dances around to "The Rum Tum Tugger." On the other hand, the mere question is already more Derulo penis content than I ever wanted.

To his credit, Derulo seemed more bemused than bothered by the removal of his organ. "To make it as cat-like as possible, I think that's what it was about," he told Cohen. We should all just be thankful they didn't make it barbed.
