‘We Don’t Want It. Thank You Next’: Fans Are Side-Eyeing Dwyane Wade After He Tweets This

Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union have been trending lately for their funny TikTok videos and their cute vacation photos for Wade’s birthday. But Wade might have taken it too far with his latest act, and everyone from Union to fans are side-eyeing him.

On Sunday, Jan. 24, he tweeted, “I’m trying to convince my wife that we should start a only fans account 😂 and she’s looking at me like… Wade added a gif of the latest Bernie Sanders meme of Sanders, with mask on and his legs crossed, observing inaugural activities as Joe Biden was sworn in as the nation’s 46th president and Kamala Harris as the country’s vice president.

Union responded to his tweet, writing, “Sir…” and adding a gif of Bernie Sanders seemingly going off in an office. Fans were all on the “Being Mary Jane” actress’s side on this one.

One wrote, “We don’t want it. Thank you next,” while somebody else blamed Union writing, “Gabby got him doing those Tik Tok challenges now he wants to show it all.”

The fellas were definitely not happy about the former Miami Heat player’s tweet and blamed it on his retirement from the NBA.

One guy tweeted, “Buddy hasn’t been right since he left Miami🤦🏾‍♂️ LA is the devil playground,” and someone else added, “DWADE come on bro , ever since you retired , you been MOVING REAL WEIRD 😭😭.”

Another person joked that they wouldn’t be down to see their Onlyfans page “Unless Kaavia will be on there giving jokes 😂.”

Wade shared more on this particular OnlyFans page in saying that it would be “Nothing sexual guys. Get your mind outta there 😊.”

Fans might be saved from seeing a frisky OnlyFans page from these two, but they definitely got a little spicy on Instagram a few days ago for Wade’s 39th birthday. He uploaded a picture with his wife standing in front of him with her robe on, while he wasn’t wearing anything. The couple got mixed reviews from the photo, but their children were DEFINITELY not here for it.

Check out what they said below.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
