Comedian and internet personality Charleston White has shut down claims that he was shot in Ft. Worth, Texas, earlier this week.
On Tuesday (Jan. 13), false reports began circulating that White, 48, had been shot three times in Texas and was in critical condition. By Wednesday (Jan. 14), White addressed the rumors directly, taking to his Instagram Story to set the record straight.
“Somebody said I got shot in Fort Worth?” White said while seated in the passenger side of a car in the clip. “I don’t live in Fort Worth. I ain’t live in Fort Worth in years. I stay in Miami. I don’t live nowhere where it ain’t no water.”
The shocking claim was also shot down by White’s manager, who told Atlanta rapper Nikeboy Zeke that the comedian hadn’t been in Texas for nearly a week.
White, known for his controversial opinions on hip-hop figures like Boosie BadAzz, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, and Cardi B, has faced similar rumors before. Back in 2022, he was falsely said to have shot himself while at a nightclub. As XXL reported at the time, White was allegedly at a strip club in Dallas, Texas, when reports claimed he suffered a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He later addressed the story during an episode of RealLyfe Productions, challenging the claims and demanding proof.
“Where the video?” White said in the clip below. “He got shot in the club
we know he did they got detailed description he was sitting down. He ran out. N***a, last night soon as that car said, ‘Boom,’ n***a, before I can even open the door, there’s cameras everywhere.”
