Antonio Brown, former NFL wide receiver, has been taking jabs at the male cheerleaders of the Minnesota Vikings for the last couple of days. However, this time it looks like he has taken it a little too far, even going so far as to involve the former First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. Brown shared an edited picture of Barack Obama’s wife, calling her the third male cheerleader for the Vikings.
The Minnesota Vikings have two male cheerleaders for this upcoming season, Louie Conn and Blaize Shiek. While most fans have been tremendously happy about male cheerleaders making it to the squad, many others have been criticizing the team for the unconventional move, with several even dropping homophobic slurs. Brown was one of the last group.

Antonio Brown also dropped a homophobic slur against Louie Conn in another recent meme. Despite the retired receiver receiving plenty of hateful comments for the post, Brown has created another homophobic one.
Brown’s comments against male cheerleaders in the National Football League are something that many bigots are echoing online. However, male cheerleaders are nothing new, with the Los Angeles Rams becoming the first team to introduce them back in 2018. The reaction of many homophobes has been the same then and even now.
Antonio Brown Takes Shot At Will Smith For Rejecting Role In Django Unchained
While Antonio Brown is known for his many controversial remarks, the man has made some startling points over the years. A few days ago, Brown called out actor Will Smith for remarks that he made in an interview with director Quentin Tarantino. Smith explained the reason for him turning down a role in Tarantino’s highly acclaimed movie, Django Unchained.

“For me I just couldn’t connect to violence being the answer”Will Smith said to Quentin Tarantino.
“He can smack a n**ga publicly but he can’t kill a slavemaster”Antonio Brown tweeted in response to Will Smith’s remarks.
Antonio Brown’s tweet, of course, reminds everyone of Will Smith infamously slapping comedian Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards back in 2022. Smith did not like Rock making jokes about his wife, Jada Smith’s alopecia, and walked up to the stage and shockingly slapped the comedian. For this, Smith received plenty of condemnation and a lifetime ban from the Academy Awards.
