50 Cent Posts Then Deletes Opinion On NFL’s First Openly Transgender Cheerleader

50 Cent always goes hard.

While 50 Cent is always taking shots at plenty of celebrities, he did seem to have a positive opinion on another controversial figure, the NFL’s first openly transgender cheerleader, Justine Lindsay.

If you’re not familiar, the 29-year-old was hired by the Carolina Panthers Topcats cheer squad back in March and she is all set to suit up for the 2022/23 NFL playing season.

50 Cent jumped on IG to share his opinion after coming across a Daily Mail headline about the performer.

“I guess the NFL is looking to spread its wings,” he wrote in the caption.

“Why not a transgender player though? I hope this is not just for press.”

Not long after, the upload was removed from his feed.

 

Lindsay gave her first interview with BuzzFeed News over the weekend, opening up about her experience of becoming a professional cheerleader as a trans woman. “I think more people need to see this,” she shared.

“It’s not because I want recognition. It’s just to shed light on what’s going on in the world,” Lindsay continued. Over on her own IG page, she even called out those who have been hating on her come up, telling them “thank you.”

Not sure why 50 decided to remove that post, it really wasn’t all that bad.
