Black Twitter Is Hilariously Concerned About Ludacris Drinking Glacier Water in Alaska

With a heatwave sweeping the U.S., the words “stay hydrated” have taken on a new meaning. Now, popular rapper Ludacris is taking that phrase to another level. On Monday, while in Alaska for a show, the “Get Back” artist posted an Instagram video of himself drinking water fresh from a glacier.

“Listen, man, half the world’s glaciers are here in Alaska, I couldn’t come here and just have a show. You know I got a bucket list, or as I like to call it, a ‘fuck it list,’” he said. “I’ve never tasted fresh glacial water ever in my life. And this is a first.”

After drinking a sip of the water, Luda exclaimed, “Oh my god! Oh”—like he’s just discovered the Fountain of Youth. As much as he loved the experience, fans replying to the clip were very concerned about his well-being. They were thrilled he didn’t fall in the water, but also wondered if the questionable source would make him sick. It seems all the sci-fi/horror movies about aliens and prehistoric monsters lurking in glacial settings had people spooked.

One person thinks the rapper/actor is going to “discover some ancient disease.”

Another fan had thoughts about the local wildlife, replying, “Luda I feel like there’s polar bear pee in that water.”

Considering what we’ve been through in recent years, it’s not surprising that an ancient disease topped everyone’s list of concerns, with one person writing, “Next world wide virus is from millions of years ago. Patient O is this guy.”

Someone who’s been to the movies recently posted, “Mf drinking ‘Alien Romulus’ remnants smh.”

Another person thinks this isn’t leading anywhere positive, writing on X, “New monkeypox variant coming soon.”

With so many people talking about his latest adventure, the “Act a Fool” rapper hopped on social media to give everyone an update. The self professed “water snob” seems like his usual energetic self, and he seemingly has not contracted an alien virus.

“For everybody asking me how that glacier water really tasted…it was the best tasting water I’ve ever had in my life. As I drank it, I felt like every cell in my human body was being hydrated and rejuvenated at the same damn time,” the “Fast & Furious” actor said. “I’m here. I feel like Superman. Loved all the fans, glad y’all digging that. It’s different ways of life. Just trying to take you places and show you things.”

Despite his assurances, at least one fan is not buying it, replying, “Notice how he said human body? Thats because he’s been entirely taken over by an ancient water spirit and they just outed themselves.”

One user had a reality check for everyone, posting, “If you’re concerned over Ludacris drinking glacier water, wait until you hear about Flint, Michigan…”
