O.J. Simpson is a happy man today, after he was granted parole on his prison sentence for kidnapping and armed robbery.
Now 70, the former NFL great could be released as early as October, after spending the minimum of 9 years behind bars.
As soon as the news was announced during the hearing, "The Juice Is Loose" started trending on Twitter and Hollywood began chiming in.
So far, only a couple celebrities have celebrated the news, with Tiffany "New York" Pollard and former "Basketball Wives" star Tami Roman happy with the results of the hearing.
The juice 🍅is LOOSE‼️🙌🏾 #OJSimpsonParole we ALL deserve another shot! So happy for #OJSimpson and his family! God BLESS 🙏🏾❤️
@TiffanyPollard
Some ppl aren't happy w/the OJ verdict & him being granted parole, but for the robbery case, this man did his time favorably. #OJSimpson
@TamiRoman
Most, however, reacted with either surprise or sarcasm.
OJ for President.

I could use a lot less OJ right now.
@jfreewright
OJ says he took class "Alternatives to Violence" in prison-bet Nicole & Ron wish he would've taken that class 25 yrs ago. #OJSimpsonParole
@GretchenCarlson
Let's be real, OJ is in prison now for killing Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. Because of that I thought they'd never let him out.
@Toure
OJ just told the judge "I would kill to get out of here!" #ojparole #OJSimpsonParole
@RealGilbert
Why is fact that he was found liable for two murders in a civil trial not an "aggravating factor" in this parole hearing?
@theharryshearer
OJ today; "Nobody's ever accused me of pulling a weapon on them." Nobody who's still alive.
@theharryshearer
OJ: "lived a conflict-free life"--but we heard Nicole's 911 calls, the baseball bat through her car windshield.
@theharryshearer
OK then... Black folks get ready for random white folks to start conversations w/ you like "CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS OJ THING?" #OJSimpsonParole

From watching #OJSimpsonParole it's clear he never watched the end of Shawshank Redemption. pic.twitter.com/FrxeAKBQrK

OJ is free. After-party at the Kardashians.
