50 Cent took to Instagram Stories Wednesday, saying that his recent weight loss of more than 40 pounds is the result of time he’s spent in the gym, as opposed to taking Ozempic.
The Grammy-winning rap artist, 48, was seen in a clip for his 30.8 million followers, seated in a vehicle donning a Los Angeles Dodgers ballcap.
The In da Club rapper responded after his followers debated about how he shed the pounds in a series of social media posts he put up earlier this week looking slim.
50 Cent, whose full name is Curtis Jackson, appeared to be in a relaxed mood as he set the record straight on the weight loss speculation.
‘You want to talk about weight loss, I was in the gym, I was working the f*** out man,’ said the rapper, whose hits include Candy Shop, P.I.M.P. and If I Can’t.

He continued: ‘They’re gonna says it’s Ozempic; I was running, I was running, I was doing what I had to do, you’ve seen me on tour, I run around.’
50 Cent then got specific on actual figures, saying, ‘I was 253 pounds, I’ve came down, I’m 210 right now – tell me how you feel about it; you tell me how you feel about it later.’
The rapper then changed topics, recommended the services of criminal defense lawyer Drew Findling, who has past represented high-profile clients such as Cardi B, Offset and former President Donald Trump.
