'Now we see why 50 Cent needs heavy security' — Internet reacts to his GoFundMe campaign for Big Meech's bills

Express Tribune21-02-2025

50 Cent has caused a stir on social media after creating a GoFundMe page to 'help Big Meech pay his bills,' leading to a wave of reactions from fans and critics alike. The page, which was initially set up by Cory Smith with a goal of $10,000, was shared by the G-Unit boss on his Instagram, where he continued to take jabs at his longtime adversary.
The description of the GoFundMe page humorously claims that 'Big Meech, who co-founded the notorious organization Black Mafia Family, was released from the Federal Bureau of Prisons late last year in 2024. Meech came home with plans for a big homecoming concert, but unfortunately, the event was canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. Meech currently needs help paying his bills. Any help will be much appreciated!'
The post quickly went viral, garnering over 50,000 likes on Instagram as fans flooded the comments with a mix of amusement, confusion, and concern. One user commented, 'I see why 50 keeps heavy security,' while others reacted with disbelief, noting the humor in Musk's actions despite the serious undertones. On X (formerly Twitter), the reaction was just as intense, with comments such as, 'Since I was a lil kid I was hearing about this Big Meech character, all for him to go out like this LMAOOO.'

Many took the opportunity to criticize 50 Cent's continued public trolling, with some commenting on his ongoing feud with Rick Ross and now Big Meech. One person wrote, 'Imagine coming home to be met with 50 Cent dragging you like this? At this point, Big Meech might as well fold and accept donations because Curtis isn't over until he apologizes.'

Others worried that 50's trolling could escalate the situation, with one user stating, '50 is playing with fire. This ain't a movie. These real black men that done hard time and got a lot of respect in the streets and in prison. All this messy shit people entertained by is a trigger for somebody else. It's all fun and games, trolling and entertainment till somebody gets dropped.'

This latest dig from 50 Cent comes after Big Meech, whose real name is Demetrius Edward Flenory Sr., was photographed with rapper Rick Ross in January, sparking the long-standing rivalry between 50 and Ross to reignite. The G-Unit boss did not hold back, mocking Meech publicly for associating with Ross, who is one of 50 Cent's greatest rivals.
Corny and a waste of time. 50 where is the next big show?!? Like what are you doing ?? — Radical Blavk Racist (@that_blavkgurl) February 21, 2025
On his X account, 50 Cent shared a post that mocked Meech, calling him a "rat" and reinforcing the bad blood between the two. The comment seemed to reference the long history of animosity between 50 Cent and Rick Ross, dating back to 2009, when they began their infamous feud.
Despite the backlash, 50 Cent has continued to provoke his rivals with posts and taunts, maintaining his reputation for stirring controversy and entertaining his followers. His GoFundMe stunt has certainly raised eyebrows, with many wondering whether the trolling will escalate further.
As of now, Big Meech has not commented on the GoFundMe campaign or 50 Cent's public jabs. Fans are watching closely to see if the situation will escalate or if the two will bury the hatchet. Meanwhile, 50 Cent's relentless trolling continues to fuel the fire, drawing both support and criticism from fans and observers alike.

Ayeza Khan under fire for 'insensitive' statement

Following the murder of 17-year-old influencer Sana Yousaf, Ayeza Khan joined her fellow celebrities and the internet in speaking out about the issue. However, her priorities didn't quite align with what netizens were expecting from her. Instead of condemning the murder or the perpetrator, Ayeza chose to discuss the repercussions of sharing one's personal life on social media. "Let's all understand the pros and cons of social media, especially when it comes to our security. Keep your addresses, car numbers, regular spots, and children's details private," she wrote. "It's not safe. It's just not safe. Share less. Times have changed," she emphasised. "Recognise that the audience you have today isn't the one you personally chose. It's from all over the world." The Meray Paas Tum Ho actor believes that it is one's own responsibility to guard what they put out in the digital world. "Let's take responsibility for what we share," she said. Adding a prayer, she concluded, "May Allah protect us all and keep us in good company. Ameen." 'Tone deaf much?' Although Ayeza's sentiments stemmed from a place of concern for the detrimental impact of social media on one's life, netizens called out her statement for lacking sensitivity and veering towards victim blaming. "Someone lost their life because some man had a similar toxic ideology as the roles your husband plays in every single drama he stars in, and your main takeaway is 'let's protect ourselves'? Tone deaf much?" an Instagram user questioned. The user didn't mince their words, urging Ayeza to tell her actor-husband Danish Taimoor to stop romanticising toxic masculinity in his drama serials and have empathy for the family who lost their young girl. "You should at least have some form of the humanity that you were preaching a few weeks ago, telling others to not victim blame," the user continued. "You seriously need to check yourself first and then hire a decent PR team because every statement you make is the most ridiculous, tone-deaf, and insensitive thing ever." A different netizen suggested that the Humraaz actor is hypocritical for having an active Instagram account and still putting out such statements. "While your whole life is on your social media account, you still have the guts to shape cold-blooded murder into a lack of self-protection. Please come out of the fancy clothes and glamorous shoots. The victim was not at fault at all. Maybe tell your dear husband to not choose scripts like he does all the time and stop normalising abuse on screens." Other criticism ranged from speaking out against male privilege to hoping to de-platform celebrities who perpetuate harmful ideas that influence the wrong minds. Many argued that the problem is not social media but the entitlement that criminals have to commit such heinous crimes without the fear of being watched or punished. As per the BBC, a 22-year-old man confessed to murdering Sana after being arrested. Authorities believe that Umar Hayat murdered the influencer at her home in Islamabad after she rejected his "offers of friendship". They informed the BBC that he broke into her house, fired two shots, and fled with her phone. Sana's family gathered in Chitral for her burial. Her father, Syed Yousaf Hassan, shared that she was his only daughter a "very brave" one at that. He added that she had never mentioned Umar or reported any threatening behaviour before her life was taken on Monday.
