Fans suggest 50 Cent uses Ozempic as he flaunts weight loss: ‘Looking like 25 Cent’

From the club to the gym.

50 Cent took to social media over the weekend to flaunt his weight loss while wearing a white Amiri T-shirt under a black velvet blazer, gray jeans and a pair of white Air Force 1 Nike sneakers.

“🎥GLG🚦GreenLightGang 2024 I’m gonna shake things up. time to work let’s get it!” he captioned the post Sunday.

However, fans couldn’t help but notice how different 50 — born Curtis Jackson — looked and wondered if he had used the popular Type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic to achieve his slimmer figure.

“Ozempic takes another, but I like Teddy Bear 50,” commented one user.

“Dam you on Ozempic too,” added another.

“Fif on that Ozempic… Looking good tho..,” said a fourth person.

Another user said the rapper was “looking like 25 cent” with his new body.

During his performance of his 2003 hit single “In Da Club,” the “Power” star hung upside mimicking what he did in the music video. However, fans took to social media to fat-shame the emcee for his apparent weight gain.

Additionally, Nick Cannon has also commented about 50’s weight.

In June 2023, the “Wild ‘N Out” host, 43, said the “Den of Thieves” actor looked like he had “a pack of hot dogs on the back of his neck” and called him “fat.”

“You looking at them pictures from ‘Get Rich or Die Tryin’, now it’s get thick or die fryin’,” Cannon quipped at the time.

Meanwhile, a new body isn’t the only thing 50 brought into the new year.
