NFL star Cam Newton had people raising eyebrows after a video surfaced showing him having the time of his life at a roller rink.
The clip was shared to TikTok by @lifeoftheskateparty, and it shows Cam effortlessly gettin’ DOWN while rollerskating. The fact that “Return of the Mack” was bumping in the background also added to the fun, retro vibes.

Twitter Reacts To The Cam Newton Video
Naturally, the video made its way to Twitter, and users had a field day reacting to it.
While his skate moves were definitely the main attraction, some couldn’t get past his outfit. Humorously, Cam’s look was compared to “a white woman in Portland at a BLM rally.”
