These days, 50 Cent is almost just as well known for feuding with celebrities as he is for his rapping career. From Diddy to Floyd Mayweather, no one is off limits for the New York rapper. So Gossip Cop has rounded up his five biggest feuds of all time.
Currently, 50 Cent is embroiled in a feud with one-time girlfriend Vivica A. Fox. On Sunday night’s episode of “What What Happens Live,” Fox ignited the feud with ex 50 Cent when she insinuated he and rapper Soulja Boy were gay. Host Andy Cohen asked the actress her reaction to the rapper blaming “Empire’s” season 2 ratings dip on “gay stuff.” “First of all, you know the pot called the kettle black is all I’m saying,” she replied.
When Cohen asked if she thought her ex was gay, she firmly replied “no.” But she couldn’t help but bring up an old magazine cover featuring 50 Cent and Soulja Boy, saying she thought it made him look like a “booty snatcher.”
50 Cent quickly fired back on social media, re-gramming a post from Soulja Boy who called Fox a “GrannyDesperateForAttention,” with the caption, “No!!!, Now she thinks I’m gay because I let her lick my Ass. LMAO. Wait, I didn’t want her to, she forced me, my hands were tied.” The rapper continued to fire shots at the actress all through the night, poking fun at her “bad boob job” and posting unflattering pictures of Fox.
It should be noted, however, that Andy Cohen was wrong. 50 Cent never himself commented on the ratings of “Empire” dropping because of the “gay stuff.” He reposted an Instagram that had contained the claim.
Still, while there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight for this feud, we’re taking a look back of 50 Cent’s biggest feuds ever. Click through the gallery below and let Gossip Cop know what you think.

- 1.50 Cent Vs. Floyd Mayweather
50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather have had an on again off again feud going on for years now. It began when 50 Cent claimed Mayweather asked him to help run his Mayweather Productions company, before turning himself in to serve a three month prison sentence. 50 Cent then claimed he had to build the company from the ground up while the boxer was in prison, and when he was released three months later, never received proper compensation for his work. The feud continued over the years with the rapper calling out the boxer for allegedly not being able to read. The two have since buried the hatchet, but that doesn’t stop the friends from calling each other out on social media. (Getty Images) - 2.50 Cent Vs. Ja Rule
50 Cent’s oldest and biggest feud was with rapper Ja Rule. The feud began in 2000 when Ja Rule accused someone from 50 Cent’s entourage of stealing jewelry from him. The feud escalated to a violent exchange at the Hit Factory Studio in New York City, with a few of 50 Cent’s associates sustaining stab wounds. The feud continued through a series of diss tracks, and 50 Cent, deemed the winner of the feud, skyrocketed to fame. The feud was reignited in 2015 after Ja Rule gave his opinion on the Drake VS. Meek Mill beef, and 50 Cent proceeded to troll him on social media. (Getty Images) - 3.50 Cent Vs. Rick Ross
50 Cent’s feud with Rick Ross began in 2008 when Ross rapped in the song “Mafia Music,” about 50 Cent’s baby mother’s Long Island house burning dowm. 50 Cent took offense and then took Ross’s own baby mother on a shopping spree in Miami to spite the rapper. The feud was reignited in 2015 when 50 Cent told fans he was going to sell t-shirts of Ross’ chest for $2.95. Ross shot back calling the rapper out for filing bankruptcy earlier this year. 50 Cent, in turn, joked about Ross’ recent broken engagement and his correctional officer past. Ross then claimed 50 Cent’s son applied for an internship at MMG, Ross’ record label. The rappers have continued to fire shots at each other over social media. Luckily, the feud has not escalated to violence. (Getty Images) - 4.50 Cent Vs. Vivica Fox
Vivica A. Fox ignited a feud with the rapper, who she once dated, when she insinuated he and rapper Soulja Boy were gay. When asked to react to his comment that “Empire’s” season 2 ratings dropped because of “gay stuff,” she replied, “You know the pot called the kettle black.” She then went on to say she thought the rapper looked like a “booty snatcher,” when he appeared on the cover of a magazine with Soulja Boy. 50 Cent fired back on social media claiming she forced sex acts on him, and called her “desperate for attention.” He then went on to bash her “bad boob job” and blast her for once saying she was a better actress than Halle Berry. Neither 50 Cent nor Fox have apologized. (Getty Images) - 5.50 Cent Vs. Diddy
50 Cent’s feud with Diddy began after 50 Cent launched his own line of Vodka, Effen, in 2014. As a way to promote Effen, 50 Cent began to take shots at Diddy and his Ciroc liquors on social media. The rappers have continued to exchange jabs over social media for the last year, and there seems to be no end in sight for this feud. (Getty Images)
