"You're making a documentary exposing Diddy while voting for White Diddy?"- Fans call out 50 Cent for congratulatory Donald Trump post
50 Cent recently took to his Instagram page to send best wishes to Donald Trump following the latter's victory in the US Presidential Election 2024. Trump will serve as the 47th president of the US and he managed to obtain 270+ electoral votes that were required to confirm the presidency, as per The Associated Press.
Notably, 50 Cent's latest social media post, which was shared on November 6, 2024, included two photos where the rapper was seemingly shaking hands with Trump. The next snap featured a selfie of Cent and Trump. Also known as Curtis James Jackson III, he wrote below the pictures:
"I don't care how the fight goes. I'm leaving the winner sh*t. I still don't know what's going on congratulations!"
The news comes after Curtis' appearance on The Breakfast Club on October 29, where he claimed that he was being paid almost $3 million for performing at Trump's rally in Madison Square Garden. However, a Trump campaign official denied the claims, as per Variety.
On the other hand, Curtis' fans took to the comments section of his post to share their reactions, with most of them expressing their dissatisfaction over the artist supporting Trump. One of them also wrote:
"You're making a documentary exposing Diddy while voting for White Diddy?"
The user reaction referred to the upcoming Netflix documentary based on Diddy, which is produced by 50 Cent's company G-Unit & Film Television Division. The show was confirmed in September this year but a release date remains unknown as of now.
Similar responses began flooding the comments section, with a user questioning the meaning behind the caption. A few users referred to the fact that Curtis shouldn't have shared the post, with one of them saying that he won't be watching his show Power ever again.
50 Cent reveals the reason for not performing at Donald Trump's rally
As mentioned, the Queens, New York City native allegedly refused to appear at Trump's rally last month. Apart from this, he has also claimed to reject another invitation from the Republican National Convention, where he was supposed to perform the track Many Men.
However, the rally was attended by other personalities such as Elon Musk. Addressing the reasons for not accepting the offer to perform, 50 Cent told host DJ Envy on The Breakfast Club:
"I'm afraid of politics, so you understand? I do not like no part of politics. It's because when you do get involved in (politics), no matter how you feel, someone passionately disagrees with you. That's the formula for the confusion that sent Kanye to Japan."
At one point, the hosts of The Breakfast Club jokingly said that Kamala Harris was on the line and asked Curtis if he would speak to her. Cent immediately jumped off his seat and said:
"Why you guys put me into this stuff? I thought we was cool? What you doing man?"
50 Cent has supported Trump on a few occasions in the past. Back in October 2020, Curtis even requested his followers to vote for Trump by including the photo from a news broadcast featuring the tax rates that were being proposed under the plans of Vice President Joe Biden.
While his latest social media post is flooded with a few critical comments, he has yet to share a response to the same.
