London
(ANI):
Rapper
50
Cent
has
defended
his
controversial
post
on
Twitter.com,
which
said
that
gay
men
should
commit
suicide
and
is
adamant
he
wasn't
making
an
'anti-gay
statement'.
"If
you
(are)
a
man
and
your
(sic)
over
25
and
you
don't
eat
pu**y
just
kill
yourself
damn
it.
The
world
will
be
a
better
place," the
Daily
Star
quoted
him
as
writing
on
Twitter
the
earlier
day.
The
Rapper
was
criticised
by
his
followers
for
the
remark
but
he
explained
the
post
and
insisted
that
the
comment
was
misinterpreted.
"The
other
night
I
made
a
joke
about
a
b**w
job.
My
male
followers
enjoyed
it.
So
I
then
went
on
to
joke
about
women
receiving
the
same.
"Somehow
they
turned
a
simple
joke
about
oral
sex
into
an
anti-gay
statement.
I
have
nothing
against
people
who
choose
an
alternative
lifestyle;
in
fact
I've
publicly
stated
my
mum
loved
women.
It's
funny
how
people
think
negative
statements
are
newsworthy
but
positive
statements
are
not
worthy
of
coverage," he
added.
