50 Cent is looking noticeably slimmer these days, but he’s denied his weight loss has anything to do with Ozempic.
The G-Unit boss posted a video on Instagram on Wednesday (January 24) reacting to the chatter surrounding his leaner frame, revealing he has shed 43 pounds since embarking on his Final Lap Tour last year.

50 laughed off the suggestion that he’s been taking the diabetes medication, which has been linked to weight loss, and clarified he’s simply been putting in work in the gym.
“Everybody talking about weight loss,” he began. “I was in the gym, I was working the fuck out, man. And they say it was Ozempic. I was running, I was doing what I had to do.

“You see me on tour, I ran around. I was 253 pounds. I came down, I’m 210 right now, right. How you feel about it? You tell me how you feel about it later, right.”

In the video, 50 Cent also discussed YFN Lucci‘s legal case, revealing he urged the Atlanta rapper to hire high-powered attorney Drew Findling.
Lucci was recently sentenced to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty in his RICO case, with the agreement that he’d spent 10 of those behind bars.

However, it was later reported that he’s expected to serve just three to four months behind bars due to time served and parole eligibility.
“Drew Findling is one of the lawyers, right? And I told YFN to use him. I said, ‘Yo listen, good lawyer, man. I’m telling you,'” 50 said.
“And I started feeling shaky about this shit ’cause he told me the first day that he was stuttering. And his mother said he was stuttering: ’50, this is your shit, you told him to use this muthafucka.’ I said, ‘Oh shit.’ I started feeling crazy.”
He continued: “Then they talking about an offer for 20 years, then 20 years goes to an offer. And I go, ‘Yo Drew, is this real? 20 muthafuckin’ years?’ And he said, ‘Don’t worry about it, I got it. Everything will be alright.’

“Next thing you know, 20 years turns into four months. You need a lawyer? You need a lawyer, muthafucka? You need Drew Findling.”
Referencing Young Thug‘s RICO case, he wrote in the caption: “@drewfindling is the man right now, is you stupid is you dumb 20years turn into 4 more months. Fvck dat THUG better call DREW FINDLING !”
