![50 Cent Joins #EmmySoWhite Outrage: ‘[They] Still Have A Separate Bathroom For Colored Folks’](https://hiphopdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/210206-50-cent-getty.jpg?w=860)
The 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards took place in Los Angeles on Sunday night (September 19) and despite the record number of non-Anglo creatives being nominated, not a single one walked away with an award in any of the major categories.
Actors Billy Porter and MJ Rodriguez (Pose), the late Michael K. Williams (Lovecraft Country) and Kenan Thompson and Bowen Yang (Saturday Night Live) were among the 49 people of color who were nominated but failed to win. Consequently, the all too familiar hashtag #EmmySoWhite began to trend on Twitter as a growing number of people expressed their disappointment.
Always brash and willing to share an opinion, television mogul and sometimes rapper 50 Cent joined in and blasted the Emmys in a since-deleted Instagram post.
“Listen the Emmys still has a separate bathroom for colored folks,” 50 Cent wrote. “I’m gonna put the NAACP awards on the air at the same time and fuck up their numbers. No they really should be afraid of me I’m different.”
Adding insult to injury, the Emmys opened with a Black host — Cedric The Entertainer — and an all-star tribute to the late Hip Hop legend Biz Markie featuring actress Rita Wilson, Lil Dickey and LL COOL J.
While many didn’t expect anyone to beat Ted Lasso actor Jason Sudeikis, Hacks actress or The Crown’s Gillian Anderson, pundits thought at least one of the actors from Hamilton or Bridgerton actor Regé-Jean Page would pull off a win. But that wasn’t the case. Instead, white actors ultimately swept all 12 lead and supporting races across the comedy, drama and limited series categories.

Frankly, this isn’t a surprise to anyone — and certainly not 50 Cent. In 2019, he blasted the Emmys for failing to recognize his popular Power series.
“The EMMY’S can kiss my Black ass in slow motion,” he wrote alongside a photo showcasing Power’s ratings. “Fuck em I’m #1 they a bunch of Bengay my back hurt smelling ass old people anyway.”
In August 2020, he expressed similar sentiments when he said, “Ok here it is Emmy’s. My Black ass for your consideration to kiss. Fuck your organization I only care about NAACP awards.”
Michael Cole won last night….she’s blacker than me. So yeah…
She won an Emmy for writing
Courtney B Vance and Ru Paul…..unfortunately..
50 mad because he only makes trashy TV that will never get nominated for a damn thing
Thats ok….but his pockets will.
winners shouldn’t be judged just because they’re latin, asian or black.
Or be nominated just because they’re white.
Winners get trophies……. Maybe next year.
That’s actually the opposite of what is happening
They shouldn’t be judged regardless of what race they are. Race shouldn’t be considered.
This is what we’re mad about?! Not that none of these people are being required to follow the rules the test of us do? Goes to show you they know it’s not as serious as the media is telling you it is.
The REAL issue here is none of those “celebrities” attending the show were wearing masks, yet we are being forced to wear the shit everyday.
50 makes trash shows glorifying street n!ggas who die or go to jail. Stop supporting the shit if you don’t Fuck with it. You can’t cancel the Emmys
Sound very Uncle Thomish ?
If we can cancel our last president we can cancel the emmys fk em
Cancel culture is canceled so you out
How do you have a number 1 show for 3 years and not get 1emmy award???♂️ with the rating out the roof
People are people. Stop segregating people by color. Why not just say “colored people?”
This is idiotic and embarrassing to witness.
they have separate toilets because black folks (especially ebony queens) find it hilarious to bomb the damned toilet and not flush!
Stupid goofy bitch
What world do you live? No different than that Shitty Carpet in your home from your nasty ass dog and all the other animals you live with. You filthy Pig!
Nah. I’ve seen plenty white been use and not flush hell they don’t even wipe lmao
Seth Rogen was the REAL Winner @ the Emmys last Nite!!!!
They didnt win any because they were all garbage. There was simply better talent within the competition. Black people cannot stop whining. There are literally no hispanic representation in tv or anything yet they dont whine and they represent a much larger percentage of the population. Black people whine like little kids. Its actually hilarious.
Your comment is pathetic, senseless, low classed and uncivil. Im sure you already know this when you look yourself in the mirror. What’s wrong??? Take better care of yourself.
Just because you couldn’t get past any auditions with your crappie talent doesn’t mean you should hate on the black people who made it further than you. If that’s not the case then you’re exactly what 50cent considered as a Bengay back hurting old ass racist white person who has an IQ less than flea.
Guess hhhhhh boy dont got shit else better to do than sit in his wuiet room, beating off, ranting about how blk ppl are so much better at everything.. Cant take if huh, I know it burns that yall gotta cheat to win when to blk people, its just natural, too bad we dont m ow who you are.. Hiding as usual, only pussies n internet gangsters hide their identity when TALKING shit ??♂️??♂️??♂️??♂️ Oh whelp #fuk u and yo life
They only give out awards to the WINNERS fitty.
Yeaaa, thats how u feel huh, guess yo mother bush winning because we are deep in there, hiding, waiting for bitches like you to pop up so we can come after u pussy..
Oh, you dumb lol. Obviously ?
All I can say is fuck all them award shows. From the Oscars down to MVAs they haven’t shown love to anyone of color since their existence. But we still trying to fit in and be a part of. American culture has and will always be racist. Don’t matter if you a amazing actor, an exceptional athlete, a talented musician whatever. The love is artificial and fleeting at best because the color of your skin.
So they should have given an Emmy to someone because they are black? That seems messed up too.
U completely missed the point they are saying how is the nominees majority black u have 80% black nominees and not 1 wins the math isn’t right
Jon you are the problem.
BOYCOTT The EMMY’S d ok it even Nominate our movies have y’all own shit show like y’all folks do every year come on 50 let’s start our own BLACK EMMY’s ????
Fucc em The Most High God didn’t make us to be equal Fucc Equality.

[6]For thou(Black people)art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above ALL people that are upon the face of the EARTH.
