Netizens are always looking for someone to tease, regardless of social standing. On Saturday, entertainment mogul DJ Khaled made a bold decision to crowd surf ahead of a college football game.

Khaled was a guest on FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff, which aired live from Orlando, Florida, towards the University of Central Florida vs. the University of Colorado game.

The 48-year-old musician unexpectedly announced that he was going to attempt crowd surfing as his time on stage was coming to a close.

With the help of the security personnel in front of the stage, Khaled managed to push his way above the throng after asking the audience whether they had him and receiving some reassurance.

Despite initially appearing to be struggling, the audience supported the “God Did” performer until he reached the rear of the crowd and appeared a little disturbed.

Still, after the video was uploaded, jokes began to surface. 

One X user wrote, “Strongest fans in the nation,” and another commented, “The lowest crowd surf I’ve ever seen. I wonder why, hahahaha.”

Another netizen wrote, “DJ Khaled makes history as the first fat man to crowd surf successfully. #FatMenRuleTheWorld”

According to KMEL, the famed DJ’s presence on “Big Noon Kickoff” comes after his and Fat Joe’s “Paradise” song launch, which features Anitta.

Joey Crack, Khaled, and Anitta performed their collaboration live at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards in New York City. On that same night, they also released the music video, which was directed by Eif Rivera.

Khaled continues to grow his enormous enterprise, despite the jokes. HipHopDX reports that he recently collaborated with Nesquik to create a cinnamon bun flavor of the well-known milk drink called “Another Bun,” which hit store shelves in August and has elements of warm baked bread and delicious cinnamon.
