‘That Thumb Got Corona’: Joe Budden’s Photo with His and Cyn Santana’s Son Derails After Fans Poke Fun at His ‘Wild’ Thumbnail

Joe Budden is getting roasted by his fans.

The “State of the Culture” podcaster took to Instagram on Sunday, April 19 and posted a sweet photo that showed him and his 2-year-old son Lexington Budden hanging out together. A scruffy Budden hugged his toddler, who had a slight scowl on his face.

The father of two poked fun at his salt-n-pepper beard and wrote in his caption, “No, that isn’t the old man filter.”

Fans, however, became distracted by Budden’s seemingly injured thumb he placed on his son’s shoulder.

“Yo thumb wild fam 😭”

“You gotta lit thumbnail joe!”

“That thumb is crazy. Ahahaha joe out here looking different 😂😂😂😂”

“Wassup with ya hand buddy ? 👀 that thumb got corona 😂😭”

Others swooned over baby Lexington’s facial expression.

“Lex is still trying to figure out who kidnapped his dad since joe aint seen his barber since the winter 🥶 😂”

“He’s so adorable!! 😍❤️ look at his face lol he’s reaching that age where they hate sitting still for pics lol”

“Lex is like damn he is about to try to kiss me again 🙄. Awww he is too cute. His face says it all 😂🤣”

The 39-year-old former rapper shares baby Lexington with ex-fiancée Cyn Santana.

The former couple called it quits sometime last year after he allegedly cheated on her. A few months after their breakup, Santana said their split was the best decision she’s ever made.

She told Tiffany Pollard during an interview last October, “I did what was best for my mental health, for my peace, and for me and my son. Basically, let’s just sat that I’m probably the happiest that I’ve ever been. And that was probably the best decision I’ve made in my entire life in the 26 years I’ve been living on this earth. The best decision I made was leaving that relationship. And my son and I are amazing.”

However, on the latest season of “Love & Hip Hop: New York,” the couple appeared to be reconciling their relationship. The status of their relationship continues to remain unclear. Their biggest focus seems to be co-parenting their son.
