50 Cent has responded in a very 50 Cent fashion to news of a lawsuit accusing him of ordering someone to assault a man using the door of an SUV.
As reported by TMZ, the lawsuit, which sees attorney Gloria Allred representing the alleged victim of the incident, claims that 50 was riding in an SUV in Los Angeles last September when one of its doors was suddenly opened, resulting in the man being toppled off his electric scooter. In short, the alleged victim, named in the report as Guadalupe De Los Santos, has accused Fif of telling someone inside the vehicle to open the door with the intention of knocking him down.
“The moment I realized I don’t like lawyers,” 50 quickly wrote in his first Instagram update in response to news of the suit, notably featuring a photo of the two together at a Sundance TV panel discussion circa 2014. “Gloria, you should know better. Chase a different ambulance.”
In a follow-up, this time featuring additional photos from the same 2014 event, Fif continued his mockery of the lawsuit in question by telling Allred that she wouldn’t “get any money” from him out of this effort. “But if you call me, I’ll take you to dinner,” he said, adding in an “LOL” for emphasis.
Meanwhile, a rep for Fif’s legal team has also responded to the suit, telling TMZ it’s a “frivolous claim” they will be aiming to have dismissed.
This week’s Allred remarks are merely the latest in an extensive history of such social media tactics from Fif, whose penchant for making headlines with his typically IG-delivered commentary last year resulted in this Complex piece.
