Boosie Badazz Claims He Turned Down A Quarter of a Million Dollars to Perform at Pride Event

The Louisiana rapper said he “would just sell my soul for anything” had he gone through with the gig.

Boosie Badazz claims he turned down $250,000 to perform at a Pride event because it went against his morals.

While sitting down with The Danza Project, the Louisiana rapper, who has made homophobic comments in the past, said he rejected the alleged invitation but claims he had “nothing against it at all.”

"I'm not real for money. In that case, I would just sell my soul for anything," Boosie said during the interview. "I've been offered a quarter-million to go perform at an [LGBTQ] community event. Big money. I told them I have nothing against it at all. But that's not what I push and that's not what I believe in.

"A lot of people get that [misunderstood] because they act like I hate them," he continued. "No. My assistant is gay. This man deals with millions of dollars for me. I trust gay people more than regular people."

Previously, Boosie has claimed that television is making kids gay, made disparaging comments about Dwayne Wade’s daughter Zaya during their transition, and was caught on camera hurling homophobic slurs at a person who confronted him over his comments about Lil Nas X.
