Actor Jeff Goldblum is facing backlash on social media for his questions about Islam's treatment of women and the LGBTQ community during the latest episode of "RuPaul's Drag Race.

The Jurassic Park star was a guest judge on the Friday episode of the show in which drag queen Jackie Cox, whose real name is Darius Rose, wore a star-spangled hijab in honour of her Muslim roots, as part of the Stars And Stripes' runway challenge.

Commenting on the look, the 67-year-old actor asked Cox, Is there something in this religion that is anti-homosexuality and anti-woman? Does that complicate the issue?
