50 Cent made a surprise appearance during this year’s Super Bowl halftime show hanging upside down, recreating the video scene from his 2002 smash “In Da Club”, but critical fans were quick to point out Fif’s obvious weight gain from his former 28-year-old self.

Despite looking fairly fit for a 46-year-old, critics immediately started flinging fat jokes, to some people, who didn’t care for 50 Cent either way, felt the Power creator was being judged by people who were way more out of shape than he’s ever been.

Some people even felt that Fif deserved the online lashing, with so many people that he’s managed to embarrass on social media. One critic said, “Typically I would be against the body shaming of 50 Cent but the way his misogynistic vitriol is targeted towards Black women and their bodies the majority of the time, this fat Black girl gonna get some full belly laughs at his expense.”

50 even jumped in on the joke and posted a pic of D-12’s Bizarre hanging upside down.

nfl denies

During his part of an epic Hip-Hop Super Bowl halftime show, Eminem took a knee on stage following his performance of “Lose Yourself,” just as Dr. Dre began to play the piano. Speaking with TMZ after the historic performance, Dr. Dre put to bed rumors that the NFL did not want Slim Shady to do that action.

“Em taking a knee, that was Em doing that on his own,” Dr. Dre said. “There was no problem with that.”

Ahead of the performance, Puck reported Eminem and the NFL had a disagreement about his ability to kneel during the show. The NFL had reportedly told Eminem he could not kneel “Colin Kaepernick-style” during the set. League reps would deny the report to the New York Post.

Dre would reveal that Kendrick would have to remove the “If Pirus and Crips all got along” lyric from the start of “m.A.A.d City”

You can see the moment from Eminem below.
