AceShowbiz - Jay-Z may lose his job as the co-producer of the Super Bowl Halftime Show amid his legal problem. After being accused of sexually assaulting a minor, the "Jigga My N***a" hitmaker was condemned by NFL fans.
On Monday, December 9, many fans of the NFL took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on the 54-year-old hip-hop artist's role in the big event amid the lawsuit. They called out the NFL for still working with him despite the allegations against him.
One in particular tweeted, "There's no way the #NFL is going to continue ties with Jay-Z while he has this going on." Another chimed in, "Jay Z should lose his job with the @NFL which means all his decisions should be reversed so no Kendrick Super Bowl #NFL #JayZ."
A third asked, "@NFL will you be firing Jay Z after it's now been revealed he is a pedophile? #nfl #snf #LACvsKC #boycotthesuperbowl." A fourth, in the meantime, simply suggested, "Cut ties with Jay Z #NFL."
Back in 2019, Jay-Z's record label Roc Nation was announced as the NFL's live music entertainment strategist. Furthermore, the "Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)" rapper, who is also famous as Jigga, was revealed as the co-producer of the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
Recently, a woman sued Sean "P. Diddy" Combs under a pseudonym. The lawsuit, which was initially filed in October, was refiled on Sunday, December 8 in New York to include Jay-Z as another defendant. She claimed Jigga "raped" her while Diddy and "Celebrity B" watched.
The lawsuit initially stated Diddy raped the woman while "Celebrity A" and "Celebrity B" watched. Jigga is named as "Celebrity A" in the refiled lawsuit. She said she was only 13 years old when the alleged incident happened.
In response, Jay-Z, who was defended by G-Unit rappers Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda, shut down the allegations. He stated, "My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a 'lawyer' named Tony Buzbee. What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make we want to settle."
