The Times Union of Albany (New York) is reporting that 50 Cent, Timbaland, Wyclef Jean, and Mary J. Blige have been cited in a steroid investigation by Albany’s District Attorney. From the AP:
“Records shared with the Times Union and information from several cooperating witnesses on Long Island indicate the celebrities received prescribed human growth hormone or steroids. In some cases aliases were used for their delivery.”
Similar to pro sports, it’s not surprising to see celebrities getting caught up in the steroid game. With videos continuing to get racier, they are under pressure to look better and keep up with the competition.
Of the stars cited in the report, I have to say Timbaland is probably the one with the most visible changes. I remember him as being a little bit pudgy, but at the VMAs this year, the dude was jacked up, as this photo comparison above illustrates.
What do you think, are rappers juicing too?
