Boosie Badazz went on a transphobic and severely uneducated rant against Dwyane Wade and his 12-year-old daughter, Zaya, resulting in him being banned from a Planet Fitness location.
We all know that Boosie Badazz, formerly known as Lil Boosie, is stuck in his ignorant ways but when he ranted about Dwyane Wade’s decision to support his 12-year-old transgender daughter Zaya, he definitely crossed a line. The Baton Rouge rap icon recorded a video of himself speaking about Wade’s appearance on Ellen where he out explained his decision to support his daughter, who was born Zion Wade. Boosie Badazz ended up not only misgendering this child but also making up his own misguided narrative about “not cutting d*ck” ignorantly assuming because she’s trans that that’s the next step (despite the fact that isn’t an option until age 18). Deservingly so, the rapper ended up earning major backlash on social media as a result. Because of his comments, Boosie was subsequently banned from a Planet Fitness location, which caused him to spew further homophobic slurs.
“MANAGER WHO WAS GAY REFUSED TO LET ME N PLANET FITNESS BECAUSE OF MY PAST ACTIONS ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT GENDER,” wrote Boosie on Instagram, saying in the video that the man was also upset that he referred to one of their employees as a “f****t” He went on to post the address of the location in question, calling for a boycott of their services and claiming that they have roaches. “THEY HAVE ROACHES , N THEY SHOWER WATER DONT GET HOT,” he said…which is ironic considering he’s obviously upset he can’t go there.
Boosie Badazz has gotten caught in hot water over his previous comments about gender and sexuality. His rant about Zaya Wade is simply the most recent instance of it.
