Hilarious: Rapper Rick Ross Offer Fired Don Lemon A New Job

As most of you know, Don Lemon was fired from CNN on Monday after working for the network for over 17 years.

Just hours after he was canned, rapper Rick Ross offered Lemon a new job.

In a video, Ross told Lemon “just found out Don Lemon was terminated from CNN.”

He continued ““We’re hiring at Wingstop, and for some reason, I believe you know what you doing with the lemon-pepper wings.”

Don Lemon’s out of work — but Rick Ross has his back.

The “Aston Martin Music” rapper offered the 57-year-old former news anchor a job at one of his 30 or so Wingstop restaurants in an Instagram Story Tuesday.

CNN canned the sometimes controversial host Monday in a surprise move that Lemon said left him “stunned.”

In his post, Ross said Lemon — a 17-year network veteran — could come man the grill if he was looking for a career change.

“Just found out Don Lemon was terminated from CNN. Damn, dawg,” Ross said. “But guess what? The brother’s got your back.

“We’re hiring at Wingstop, and for some reason, I believe you know what you doing with the lemon-pepper wings, so man, just send over your résumé,” he continued. “I’mma make sure I get you in front of the right grill, brother. Stay solid, brother.”

In another video, Ross said Lemon should lend his semi-famous name to one of Ross’s signature energy drinks.

As seen amid a series of Instagram Stories updates, Rozay has publicly (and jokingly) informed Lemon of his Wingstop franchise locations’ need for additional employees.

“Just found out Don Lemon was terminated from CNN,” Ross said in one update. “Damn, Don. But guess what? The brothers got your back. We hiring at Wingstop and for some reason I believe you know what you doing with them lemon pepper wings. So, man, just send over your résumé. 17 years. Damn. But I’mma make sure I get you in front of the right grill, brother.”

As reported on Monday, Lemon first revealed in a tweeted statement that he had been “terminated” by CNN after 17 years with the network. A CNN rep disputed Lemon’s account of the exit in a statement released Monday, saying that Lemon had shared an “inaccurate” description of what transpired.
