There’s a running joke on social media that any bald Black man looks like Freddie Gibbs. Although Gibbs is one of the most notorious people on social media, he rolls with the jokes, usually commenting “F*ck you” with a laughing emoji. Many even tag Freddie Gibbs in pictures of people who resemble him.
During the Super Bowl on Sunday, Freddie was approached by Don Cheadle, who told the Alfredo artist, “people say we look alike.” He later tweeted about the encounter.
“N*gga walked up to me last night and said, “people say we look alike” and it was Don Cheadle. The f*cking goat,” Gibbs tweeted.
Don Cheadle then confirmed Gibbs’ story, saying it indeed happened. “true story. great meeting you, nephew. to be continued,” Cheadle quoted Gibbs tweet.
Fans might have thought their run-in sounded too good to be true. So to confirm, Gibbs manager Ben “Lambo” Lambert then tweeted a picture of Gibbs and Cheadle at the event.
Last year Wale was the first person to compare Gibbs and Cheadle. Gibbs and Wale were taking shots at each other on Twitter when Wale responded to a tweet regarding his Folarin 2 features. Gibbs was one of the people shown in the tweet. “Who the first person in the A row? That’s not don cheadle?” Wale tweeted.
