In the glamorous but contentious world of boxing, Floyd Mayweather’s fight against John Gotti III witnessed something truly peculiar. As an eager crowd anticipated Mayweather’s grand return to the ring, artists Blueface and Chrisean Rock took the stage, delivering a performance that was as unforgettable as it was controversial. They created an atmosphere that could only be described as fiery, which was a drastic departure from the typical fare at such events.
Yet, their eroticized acts at the family-inclusive event left many spectators more perplexed than entertained. Social media was quickly set ablaze, with fans’ opinions wildly split. However, beneath this flashy façade and the distracting hullabaloo, a peculiar backstage interaction involving the artists and a member of Mayweather’s team unfolded, one that offers an amusing insight into their personalities off-stage. Are you curious yet? Hold onto your seats, because this tale promises a rare peek behind the curtains.

The flashy event in Florida was not just about boxing or the provocative performance by Blueface and Chrisean Rock. It also served as the setting for a unique exchange involving the artists and Jason Lee, the charismatic host of Hollywood Unlocked, and a close aid of Floyd Mayweather.

While backstage, Jason found himself in conversation with the two performers. The day was remarkable, with Blueface and Chrisean getting along well, which wasn’t always the case. Chrisean, glowing with happiness and sobriety, was particularly eye-catching with her belly exposed.
During their friendly banter, Blueface made a pointed observation, “As much as we post him on Hollywood Unlocked, they should be on payroll.” But Jason’s response was swift and unequivocal. He retorted, “Absolutely not. We actually don’t want to post you, but you guys do so much f**k sh*t that we have to post you.” Their reactions to this candid revelation were nothing short of amusing. They laughed it off, perhaps understanding the truth in Jason’s words.

One user was bemused by Chrisean Rock’s seemingly erratic actions. Another listener claimed Blueface owed them for enduring his performance. The loudest outcry was a plea to the organizers – a request never to engage such ‘horrendous performers‘ again. This negative feedback highlights the need for considering the appropriateness of performers at high-profile events where families are present.
@The_ZeusNetwork please never hire these horrendous “performers” again.
I’d rather listen to baby cry while someone’s scratching a chalk board and mixing a pot of mac and cheese into a microphone with a loud speaker.
