For the past few days, Al Sharpton has been flexin' for the gram. In a series of selfies, the 62-year-old activist has been showing off his lean body and people haven't been able to look away from the shots. Mr. Steal Your Grandma is in full effect!
These photos of Sharpton hitting social media have been getting crazy amounts of attention. Think about it. We aren't used to seeing the activist be so candid on the internet. So, naturally, people have been throwing light shade at him. But, it's social media. So, what else do you really expect?
Let's not forget. Sharpton is in his sixties. So, though we think that the pics are a bit funny, we also think that someone being so healthy at his age is quite impressive. Take a look at a few of the social media receipts of his diesel B-O-D-Y below.

One person who's confused about these pictures is Nelly. He's so disturbed by the random pics that he jokingly said that he wants to boycott Instagram until we find out who's the person behind Sharpton's photos "leaking." Read the rapper's reaction about Sharpton's snaps below.

Sharpton has since reacted to his photos' haters. He told TMZ: “I live in the Trump era. If he can tweet at night, I can selfie before I go to the gym in the morning and don’t be jealous because I’m so fit at 62 years old.”
He added: “I work out. I was showing people you work out, you take your health seriously. I think it’s a good thing. I’m gonna keep doing it.”
There you go, Al! So ladies, tell us what you think. Issa snack or nah?
