A viral video of American rapper Curtis James Jackson III, popularly known as 50 Cent, has surfaced on X and is reportedly said to feature the rapper performing at a concert while floating mid-air, thanks to stage wires commonly used in live shows.

The view of 50 Cent suspended over the crowd quickly turned the clip into comedy gold. The view seems like it is less "In Da Club" and more "In Da Clouds."

Someone (@itsminga_) posted the video on X and captioned it:

"Okay fairy cent"

It is hard to unsee it. With the dramatic stage lights and effortless mid-air floating, 50 Cent looked less like a rapper and more like a fairy godfather about to grant someone a wish for front-row seats. All he had missing was a glittery wand and Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Bling.

Of course, the internet didn't skip a beat. The image of 50 Cent floating in midair added an almost superhero-esque feel to the entire performance—albeit it's difficult to say whether he was supposed to be up there so long.

Either a part of the act or a technical accident behind the scenes, the clip itself has already flown far and wide on social media.

And just like that, the internet took off faster than 50 Cent on those wires. The video barely had time to finish buffering before fans flooded timelines with jokes and memes. From playful nicknames like "Fairy Cent" to edits of him soaring through the sky as a budget superhero, the Internet spent no time doing what it does best.

The clip may have had 50 Cent hovering, but the reactions of the internet brought it to a whole new level. It's more of a launchpad for round-the-clock comedy at this point than a concert clip. Let us walk you through how the netizens have reacted!


Netizens have reacted to a viral clip of 50 Cent 'floating in the air'

Some people couldn't help but make light of the entire situation, taking the floating performance as an inadvertent comedy routine. Whether he was supposed to fly like a theater icon or simply became lodged in mid-verse, the internet apparently concluded it was entertainment either way:

"He don’t got 1 song where he need to be doing this," a user commented.
"Magnifi-Cent," another user joked.
"The tooth fairy on its way to get the tooth and leave you 50 cents under the pillow," a netizen hilariously expressed.

From the uncoordinated mid-air swaying to the serious rapping floating like a stage prop, netizens could not decide whether this was a concert or an unintentional audition for a low-budget superhero movie:

"now he acting like he 25 cent," a folk commented.
"He looks like he wasn't sure this was going to happen and just rolled with it," another netizen sarcastically commented.

And then there's the peanut gallery, casually weighing in with their popcorn. They weren't here for the music—they were here for the show, treating 50 Cent's aerial performance like the halftime show at a comedy roast:

"He is just as confused as we are," according to a user.
"The most petty fairy of them all," a user wrote.

Ultimately, whether 50 Cent was going for an epic stage moment or simply got caught in a cringe-worthy mid-air glitch, the internet ensured the moment didn't go unnoticed. From the aerial performance to the never-ending jokes, it's obvious the true show was in the comments section.

One thing is certain—he may have been the one floating mid-air, but it's the internet that really brought this moment to new heights.
