50 Cent has been blasted by Lil Nas X fans as "homophobic."
The "Old Town Road" artist dressed up as his idol Nicki Minaj in honor of Halloween.
He took inspiration from Minaj’s dazzling "Super Bass" music video. The 21-year-old wore the same skin-tight pink jumpsuit along with a pink and platinum blonde wig.
He also hopped on an ice sculpture motorcycle as seen by Nicki in the original video.
The genre-bending musician captioned the post: "NAS MARAJ."
But when Mr. Cent saw the snaps he immediately took to Twitter to mock him.
"what the f***, Nikki come get him !!! Lol," he tweeted.
Lil Nas X responded back to the "In Da Club" rap star by tweeting back: "why you in barb business?"
The Barbz are of course the fandom for the loyal Minaj fanbase.
50 cent immediately caught heat for coming for Lil Nas X.
"actually it’s spelled nicki, mr. 50 “i ain’t had a hit since 2003, so i decided to become a misogynistic homophobe who support Trump” cent," one fan wrote.
"ya know damn well it’s nicki. shut it two quarters," another added.
"Mm it’s the homophobia for me, straight men are SO INSECURE it’s hurts," a tweet read.
Lil Nas X has long been a not-so-secret Nicki Minaj stan for years. He even admited to running a stan account in her honor. Something he initially denied.
After recently begging her to collab via Twitter, he responded to a follower who asked why he never owned up to being a Barb: "i didn’t want people to know i was gay tbh."
One comment argued that "being a barb don’t make you gay," to which he responded:
"it don’t but people will assume if you had an entire fan page dedicated to nicki u are gay. and the rap/music industry ain’t exactly built or accepting of gay men yet."
Nicki even responded to him back on Twitter after initially rejecting a collaboration after his vehement denials of being a fan.
"It was a bit of a sting when you denied being a barb, but I understand. Congratulations on building up your confidence to speak your truth," the new mom wrote.
Lil Nas X - real name Montero Lamar Hill - replied: "the generous queen, i love u. and i’m sorry i did that in a time where u were already getting so much bandwagon hate."
"i felt so bad, hoping u wouldn’t see my denial. i was just so afraid of people finding out about me and losing everything before i even got a chance."
The "bandwagon hate" he referred to was the backlash she faced amid her feud with fellow rap star Cardi B.
Lil Nas X came out last June on the last day of Pride Month, writing on Twitter: "some of y’all already know, some of y’all don’t care, some of y’all not gone fwm no more. but before this month ends i want y’all to listen closely to [my song] c7osure."
