50 Cent is once again at the center of a viral sports moment. This time alongside New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr.
The Bronx was still mourning another postseason collapse when the hip-hop mogul posted a photo of himself partying with Chisholm and rapper A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie at a Manhattan nightclub. The photo set off a wave of backlash from Yankees fans.
The photo, shared on 50 Cent’s Instagram, shows the G-Unit founder posing with Chisholm, who’s holding a bottle of Le Chemin du Roi — 50 Cent’s luxury champagne label. The brand’s connection to the Houston Astros, one of the Yankees’ biggest rivals, added an ironic twist to the moment. A Boogie, a Bronx native, appeared in the background as the trio celebrated inside Petite Disco.
New York’s playoff run ended after a 5-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 4. The defeat marked the team’s 16th straight year without a World Series title. Chisholm’s critical misplay became the defining mistake of the game.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. Gets Backlash From Yankee Fans For Partying With 50 Cent
The timing of his night out didn’t sit well with fans. Social media lit up with criticism, as some accused Chisholm of celebrating too soon after one of the franchise’s most painful eliminations in recent memory.
“He’s supposed to be devastated, not out clubbing,” one fan wrote, echoing a common sentiment across Yankees circles.
Chisholm, who hit .242 with 31 home runs this season, has yet to comment on the viral photo. 50 Cent, meanwhile, appeared unfazed by the backlash.
The TV mogul has long enjoyed merging his entertainment empire with sports culture. From courtside appearances to partnerships across boxing and baseball.
For Chisholm, the incident adds another chapter to his polarizing debut season in pinstripes. For 50 Cent, it’s just another headline in a career built on commanding attention wherever he goes.
