The you-know-what just got real! Anytime 50 Cent is able to force the typically calm “Empire” actor, Jussie Smollett, to step in and give him a good check session, you know it’s going DOWN. This current drama between 50 Cent, Jussie, Taraji P. Henson, and Vivica Fox, all stems from two things- Vivica’s homosexual jabs she threw at 50 on national TV IN 2015; and 50’s subsequent epic responses and self-created TV show battle between his show, “Power,” and the show Taraji, Vivica, and Jussie star in, “Empire.”
After Taraji stepped in recently to stand up for her TV sister, Vivica, (after 50 had once again taken some shots at Viv’) 50 Cent was not one to let Taraji’s jabs slide. So check out what has transpired between the four of them on social media within the past two dasys…it’s a straight up MESS, but we’ve got love for all of them, so we hope they’ll resolve to a peaceful ending once this is all said and done…
According to E News, 50 CENT FIRST POSTED A PHOTO OF TARAJI (which he since deleted) with a headline that implied “Empire’s ratings were dropping and he captioned it with this: “I was talking to old girl but you felt like you had to respond. SMH you know I love you cookie. I got a new show for you BMF COMING SOON !!!#EFFENVODKA.”…”Well look at the bright side at least. You can eat your trophies.”
TARAJI WASN’T HAVING THAT…So she replied to 50 Cent with her own screenshot that stated “Empire” is still the no.1 rated show and this was Taraji’s caption:
“For the confused ppl. Do REAL research!!! Loose change makes sooooooo much UNNECESSARY NOISE. STILL LOOKING FOR THAT DAMN CENT SIGN!!! I guess it’s obsolete. AGAIN CONGRATS ON YOUR SUCCESS BLACK MAN!!! @50cent.”
THEN JUSSIE STEPPED IN to let 50 know he will stand up for his TV Momma no matter what…
50 CENT RESPONDED TO JUSSIE in the worst way by calling him a “punk” alongside a screenshot of Jussie’s kissing scene from “Empire”…
VIVICA FOXX FINALLY LET THE REAL VIVICA OUT when she responded later to 50’s jabs at Taraji with a tad bit more hood in her clap-back…
TARAJI ALSO SHOWED 50 CENT’S “POWER” STAR, NATURI NAUGHTON, SOME LOVE THOUGH…
And according to People, 50 responded to that post as well:
Via People: “All this back and forth s–t is starting to turning me on cookie, LMAO I ran into Lee Daniels at the gym on Sunset Blvd. he asked why I didn’t except his offer to be on EMPIRE. I told him I have a lot going on, I’m actually working on the show FOX is gonna replaceEMPIRE with, he looked at me like…why the f–k are you doing that?” he wrote in a subsequent – and since-deleted – post. “It’s because I’m a drug dealer, and I was taught to get in, get your weight up, then take over. So that’s the deal #EFFENVODKA #smsaudio #FRIGO.”
Earlier today (Sunday), 50 summed up his Instagram drama by plugging “Power’s upcoming airing and his BMF project:
50 Cent: “Tonight 9pm it is gonna be made very clear there is no competition there is only POWER. Anyone who has seen it on demand, or on the Starz app will tell you. Nothing out can compare. BMF Coming Soon I’m gonna change Tv.#EFFENVODKA.”
As of now, 50 has yet to reply to Vivica, but based on the way things have gone so far with their ever-going feud, he’ll probably shoot back at Viv’ soon enough…And the saga continues…
