AceShowbiz - Boosie Badazz a.k.a. Lil Boosie isn't taking any chances when it comes to his health amid Coronavirus outbreak. The rapper has declared that he would stay away from all Asians, whom he believes to be carrying COVID-19, to make sure that he doesn't contract the disease.
The 37-year-old let everyone know the preventive measure that he's taken in an Instagram Live video. "I won't even walk by. I won't even walk by at an airport. If you're a Chinese or you look like.. I won't even walk by," he said while seemingly in a car. "I'd go the other way. If you Chinese or Yang, don't come around me. Philippines ... I'm sorry I wouldn't even walk by. I would take the other way around."
His remarks prompted people to accuse him of racism as he made the assumption that all Asians are carrying the risk of spreading Coronavirus. "This is full blown racism, imagine if a white person said this," one responded to his video.
"This is like super racist," another remarked. "Racism on another level," a third user wrote about Boosie's declaration to stay away from Asians, while another sarcastically wrote, " 'Black people cant be racist' yeah Ok."
Some others, however, think Boosie was just speaking the truth. "HE RIGHT THO , TF HE SUPPOSED TO DO HUG EM," one defended him. Another commented, "Boosie speakin FACTSSS." Someone else said, "I don't blame him," while one other added, "Call it racist all you want but it's gettin to that point."
Boosie previously shared a photo of him wearing a mask while on a plane. "GOT MY CONDOM ON TIGHT," he wrote in the caption of the post shared on Thursday, February 26.
In other news, Boosie has tried to shoot his shot at Rihanna. In a trailer for the first season of his new show "Badazz Boosie", he unashamedly reveals that his children tried to hook him up with the Barbadian songstress. "My kids, I think they tryna find me a woman," he admits. "You know who I want. The whole world knows who I want. She wants me too, it's just a matter of time. Rihanna, you know you want me."
One of his sons later tries to pitch his father as saying, "Yo Rihanna, you can come see my daddy." Another adds, "Yeah, he needs somebody in his life." Boosie is later seen shaking his hips, attempting to show Rihanna that he has them "rude bwoy" moves.
The upcoming reality series shows the rapper and his family going about their regular lives. It will premiere sometime in March.
