50 Cent Pays Tribute to Donald Trump After Assassin Attempt
In a shocking display of solidarity, American hip-hop legend 50 Cent paid tribute to former US President and Republican Party candidate, Donald Trump, after he survived an assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday.
The rapper, who has also survived multiple assassination attempts in the past, showed his admiration for Trump by adding his face to the iconic album cover of his hit song ‘Many Men (Wish Death)’, during his performance in Boston yesterday. The unusual gesture was met with cheers from the fans who attended the show.
The assassination attempt occurred at Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, where two people died after shots were fired. The injured former president was rushed off stage by security staff. The FBI identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks as the "subject involved" in the attempted assassination and reported that the assassin was neutralised by security operatives.
The stage decorations for 50 Cent’s performance in Boston yesterday were also a hit, with a Twitter user captioning a photo of the setup: "NEW: The stage decor for 50 Cent’s performance in Boston yesterday was EPIC." The tweet, shared by @ImMeme0, was accompanied by a photo of the album cover display.
This unexpected display of friendship between 50 Cent and Trump has left many wondering what sparked the rapper’s tribute to the former president. Despite their differing views on politics, it appears that the two have found common ground.
