In a recent podcast interview, legendary rapper O’Shea Jackson Sr. aka Ice Cube revealed that he lost a $9 million movie deal as he refused to take the Covid vaccine. The vaccine was a prerequisite for the movie Oh Hell No, a Sony Pictures project.In an episode of the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast on Monday, November 21, Ice Cube opened up about what went down. He initially said that he was the one who turned down the project, claiming that he didn’t want to get the vaccine. He said:“I turned down a movie because I didn’t want to get the mo*******ng jab (Covid vaccine). I turned down $9 million. F**k that jab, and f**k y’all for trying to make me get it.”ChiTownSidB@ChiTownSidBrown@Phil_Lewis_ I love Cube's music but don't be fooled, this is a comment about privilege. He can say this because if he does get sick, he gets the best doctors, treatment, and access to the best facilities on the planet. Can you all say the same? "Liberty" in a capitalist system = $$$$.222@Phil_Lewis_ I love Cube's music but don't be fooled, this is a comment about privilege.

I didn’t turn it down. They just didn’t give it to me.”By the end of the interview, he re-asserted his stance on the vaccine and said that he would not get the jab.“I didn’t need that s**t (Covid vaccine). I didn’t catch that s**t (Covid-19) at all… I didn’t need that s**t… Ain’t gonna take no s**t I don’t need.”Netizens debate over Ice Cube’s anti-vaccine stanceDavid Cotterill@cotterill_davidIce cube telling how he turned down a $9m movie part because they wanted him to take the jab, goes on to call it the plandemic 🏻1090287Ice cube telling how he turned down a $9m movie part because they wanted him to take the jab, goes on to call it the plandemic 👏🏻 https://t.co/h0z5uFwuEsSome netizens have expressed anger over Ice Cube’s anti-vaccine stance, noting that he comes from a place of privilege and that he can afford to get the required medical treatment if he falls sick.ChiTownSidB@ChiTownSidBrown@AlexJ46411750 @Phil_Lewis_ Yep, agreed. And when it comes to any service, especially health/healthcare in the US, for most when you're sick, **IF** you get sick time, you have roughly a week. Chronic COVID isn't over in a week. When you turn down a $9M job, feeding the fam isn't a concern.1@AlexJ46411750 @Phil_Lewis_ Yep, agreed.

Earlier in October, British rapper and singer M.I.A also voiced her opinion on Covid vaccines while referring to a tweet from right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.Taking to Twitter, M.I.A wrote:M.I.A.@MIAuniverseIf Alex jones pays for lying shouldn’t every celebrity pushing vaccines pay too ?15414625927If Alex jones pays for lying shouldn’t every celebrity pushing vaccines pay too ?Jones had called the 2012 Sandy Hook School shooting a hoax. He had earlier claimed that the school shooting massacre was staged as part of a conspiracy to take away Americans’ guns. In October, a Connecticut court charged the conspiracy theorist with $965 million for the victims’ families.In a separate tweet, the British rapper wrote:“Alex jones lying and Pfizer lying both trending. One with penalty other without. If you have no critical thinking faculty, this is about as crazy as we should get before a nuclear war wipe out the human race.”M.I.A also dissed celebrities pushing vaccines.
