A word of advice to members of Congress: If you’ve recently been embroiled in scandal, maybe don’t ask for photos with celebrities when they visit Capitol Hill.
That was a lesson Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado learned on Wednesday evening after she posed for a photo earlier in the day — at her request — with Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson, the Grammy-winning rapper and producer. Jackson was on Capitol Hill along with civil rights attorney Ben Crump to meet with members of the Congressional Black Caucus about Black representation in the liquor industry (Jackson is the owner of Sire Spirits, which sells cognacs).
