Fan angers Cam Newton after confusing him with Jay-Z (PC:X, formerly Twitter)
Cam Newton was recently mistaken for legendary rapper Jay-Z. Apparently, the American football player did not like the confusion caused by the fan who approached him with the name of the New York rapper. This incident has gone viral on social media.
On the other hand, NFL fans can’t stop laughing at what happened with hilarious reactions on the internet. The fact that fans have gotten confused between Cam, who is known for his unique personality, and Jay-Z, a completely different personality, is something to talk about.
Cam Newton gets angry after a fan mistook the NFL player for Jay-Z in a funny viral video
In a viral video, a fan approached NFL player Cam Newton and called him Jay-Z multiple times while the camera was pointed at the former Carolina Panthers player.
It turned out that the quarterback, who had been out enjoying his night, got upset by the mix-up with the hip-hop mogul. The 35-year-old was caught walking past the confused and excited fan (presumably of Jay-Z), leaving him behind.
NFL fans react to viral incident
The incident has been widely circulated on the Internet. One user wrote: “How the hell can you confuse Cam Newton with Jay?”
Another wrote: “He knew who he was. He’s famous for doing this lol.”
One user said: “Would you be pissed off too if someone stuck a camera in your face, called you someone else’s name, and tried to give you a fucking hug? LOL.”
Another said: “Well, he got the name wrong and put the camera in Cam’s face.”
Last but not least, “the guy was so upset with Cam that he ruined the glasses.”
In addition to his NFL career, Cam is well known for his opinions on American football. During his appearance on his 4th & 1 podcast, the 35-year-old, who has played for 11 seasons in the league, talked about his thoughts on the biggest dual threat.
In response, the three-time Pro Bowler claimed that it was Lamar Jackson. Comparing himself to the Baltimore Ravens star, he said the 27-year-old quarterback’s style “is different” and “has speed” that he “never had.”
Newton retired with 5,628 rushing yards, which is the second-most rushing yards for a player playing the position.
