50 Cent isn’t letting a global pandemic stop him from cracking gay jokes on social media. Because that’s exactly what the world needs right now.
This week, the 44-year-old rapper decided to revive some old beef with former G-Unit bandmate Young Buck, who he has been harassing for years over tabloid reports of an alleged relationship he had with a trans woman.

Buck has repeatedly denied the relationship, but that hasn’t stopped 50 Cent from reviving the story every few months on social media, as well as calling Buck “gay” and posting disparaging memes about trans women on Instagram.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
On Tuesday, he shared a photo of a Pride parade on Instagram, along with the caption: “👀Hey is 2020 gay pride parade cancelled? 🤔asking for a friend, 😟young Buck. LOL.”
Not only is he trolling Buck (again), but he’s also trolling LGBTQ people by making light of pride being canceled this year because of coronavirus.

50 Cent’s homophobia and transphobia are nothing new, unfortunately.
In addition to endlessly harassing Buck, in February, he went after Dwyane Wade’s 12-year-old daughter, who had recently come out as trans.
In 2015, he complained that Empire, Lee Daniels’ acclaimed LGBTQ-inclusive series about a hip-hip music company, had too much “extra gay stuff.”
In 2014, he alleged Diddy, Rick Ross, and ex-record exec Steve Stout were in a gay relationship together.
And then there’s this tweet from 2010 that’s still up on his Twitter feed:

50 who?

People who usually don’t care for something spend as little time as possible giving that something any thought let alone repeatedly (and randomly) involving themselves in the 5 Ws of said thing.
I guess he’s simply the poster child for the “What you resist not only persists, but will grow in size.” mindset. Therefore Fiddy I say stop resisting. Keep letting it grow in size. Then take a seat and spin on it.

Isn’t 50 Cent a gay joke? #ijs

He is not so much as a gay joke but a dumb joke.
Cam
His ex girlfriend called him out for being a closet case, so this doesn’t really surprise me.

Curtis Jackson aka 50cent is a piece of putrid green sh!t.

Miss 50 Used Coins Girl, please, don’t try us! Unless you want to get read for filth, get it together and keep your trap closed!

He’s a vile rapist and homophobe, so anything he has to say should be met with derision and contempt.

He mad cuz a guy in Australia is trolling him by making murals of him as different celebrities so he’s taking it out of the gay community. Well maybe, I don’t know. But y’all need to check out Swifty Cent. Priceless.

I can assure you he has had more men melt in his mouth than I have.

Ms. 50, I know you have a drag persona gurl, im thinking something akin to Wesley Snipes in Too Wong Foo with an extra tuck.

There’s that old saying ‘those that yell the loudest against something is usually doing it themselves!’

I don’t know if he’s a closet case or not. The signs are sure there like a 3 alarm fire though. However, I just don’t care enough for some washed up never been loser and his god awful rapping.

Another one of Ellen’s “friends.”

Vivica has as much called him gay and told the world he loves ass play, his own.
nitejonboy

50 cent is a favorite of Ari Melber on MSNBC which I despise. 50 cent is just another black guy hating the gay community. No surprise here. Blacks think the only thing worse than being black is being gay and even worse being a black gay. Go “F” yourselves.
MISTERJETT
all blacks? the worse thing is being an ignorant bigot like you, trek.
