Some of O.J. Simpson's recent remarks have left people divided.
The former NFL player was accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown in 1994, two years after their divorce.
Following a high-profile criminal trial, Simpson was acquitted of Brown's murder.

But in 1997, a civil jury found Simpson liable for wrongful death and he was ordered to pay Brown's family $33.5 million in damages. Some of this sum was also given to Ron Goldman's family - the waiter who was stabbed to death alongside Brown.
This wasn't the end of the retired football players run in with the law, however.
In 2008, he was found guilty of robbery and sentenced up to 33 years in prison.
He wasn't granted parole until 2017 after nine years behind bars, and now lives in Las Vegas after early release.
It's thought that the 76-year-old now largely stays out of the public eye, but he recently featured on the It Is What It Is podcast.
On the show, Simpson and podcast hosts Mason Betha, Cam'ron and Treasure Wilson were discussing Shaq O'Neal's previous comments about not opening up to women as they'll 'use it against you'.
Simpson was then asked if he agreed with the basketball star's sentiments.
"When he says 'open up to women', I don't know what he's talking about, but talking about confessing... no man, don't confess," he chuckled.
"I think he right. Don't say nothing. Leave me out of the confession."
Cam'Ron and Betha proceeded to burst into laughter and, while they found it extremely amusing, others didn't.
"This is weird," one person said on X, while another said: "So disgusting. The cackling."
A third continued: "Nothing about this is really funny."
"Wonder if Nicole Brown Simpson's parents would think this is so funny?" questioned another.
But others took his remarks with a pinch of salt and saw the funny side of things.
Someone wrote: "Nothing uncomfortable O.J. is f**king hilarious."
"Quite literally the funniest sh*t I've seen all week," said another, while someone else added: "This had me crying lol."
