50 Cent is notorious for his relentless trolling—no one is off-limits, not even Tyler Perry, despite the G-Unit mogul’s past praise and public admiration for the media powerhouse.
The rapper hopped on Instagram early Wednesday to poke fun at Perry amid the filmmaker’s $260 million sexual harassment lawsuit, using a meme of comedian Katt Williams to make his point.
According to 50 Cent, Tyler Perry should be more concerned about what the comedian has to say about the lawsuit than the lawsuit itself.
The post came just hours after 50 Cent publicly defended Perry, sharing another AI image of the two together.
The playful jab didn’t come from a place of malice. The two moguls have long expressed mutual respect for each other. 50 Cent has praised Perry’s business savvy and even called him a mentor. After visiting Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, 50 Cent said he left “inspired” and credited Perry for helping him shape his own G-Unit Studios.
The legal trouble Perry faces stems from a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County by actor Derek Dixon, who claims Perry sexually harassed and assaulted him between 2019 and 2021 while working on the BET series The Oval.
