Rapper and actor, Ice Cube says he missed out on $9 million film role after he refused to get vaccinated for COVID-19

 Ice Cube revealed he missed out on a $9 million acting role after he refused to get the vaccination shot for COVID-19.


The 53-year-old rapper-actor, appearing on the podcast Million Dollaz Worth of Game Monday, said, 'I turned down a movie because I didn’t want to get the motherf***ing jab.'

He continued: 'I didn’t want get the jab - f*** that jab; f*** y'all for trying to make me get it. I don’t know how Hollywood feels about me right now.'

 

This comes after he was reported in October of 2021 that he had been passed over for a role in the Sony comedy Oh Hell No as producers wanted all cast vaccinated for the shoot.

 

The entertainer, whose real name is O'Shea Jackson, said he 'turned down $9 million' in not getting vaccinated to appear in the film, which is slated to star Jack Black and be directed by Kitao Sakurai.

 

'That’s Hollywood thought - they’re on some s***,' he said. 'But me too, I’m on some s*** too.'

Asked if he would oversee his own independent production, Ice Cube said he was 'working on it,' 'hustling' and has 'a lot of things up my sleeve.'

 

In a later segment in the clip, Ice Cube clarified that he 'didn’t turn down' the role, but was rather not offered it due to his vaccination status.

 

'Those motherfuckers didn’t give it to me because I wouldn’t get the shot,' he said. 'I didn’t turn it down. They just wouldn’t give it to me.

 

'The covid shot, the jab … I didn’t need it. I didn’t catch that s*** at all. Nothing. F*** them. I didn’t need that s***.'

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...
