DJ Khaled Catches Heat for Video of Bodyguards Carrying Him to Not 'Mess Up' His Air Jordans

The GRAMMY winner caught backlash after sharing a video of himself being carried by security guards to keep his sneakers clean.

In the video, the GRAMMY winner has two of his security guards carry him from his car to a nearby truck and then to the stage in order to keep his Nike sneakers clean for a performance at the 2024 South Beach Wine and Food Festival in Miami. A fan wrote, "Honestly Khaled i think you deserve all your success and achievements in life…you are a real inspiration…but this time you took too far…and I don’t care if this was some kind of a joke or if you thanked them…or if this was just about the Jordans…it’s wrong in so many ways to share this…it’s disrespectful to the guards…they are not slaves…" "DJ Khaled, a 48-year old presumed adult and full grown man asks to be carried because he doesn’t wanna get his Jordans dirty," another X user wrote.
