There was a time when 50 Cent and comedian Chelsea Handler were an item, but their short-lived romance is firmly in the past.
Still, Chandler appears to hold a lot of love for her ex-boyfriend, something that recently came to light after the Power mogul told his 26.2 million Instagram followers to “vote for Trump.” Upon seeing the post, Handler tweeted, “You used to be my favorite ex-boyfriend.”
But during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Handler hinted she’d be willing to temporarily revive the romance if 50 would publicly denounce Trump, which he promptly did.
Now, Handler says the Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ legend was capping the whole time. While speaking to The View recently, she revealed they’d had a phone conversation on Monday (October 26) to clear the air.
“I DM’d him and I said, ‘Can you please call me about this?'” Handler said. “‘I really I want to know if you’re serious about supporting Trump.’ He wasn’t serious. He was just screwing around on his Twitter. He is supporting Joe Biden. He made that very clear to me. I did promise to pay his taxes and then I found out it’s illegal to pay somebody to vote for your candidate.
“So I offered him another form of payment and we’ll see if he takes me up on it. But I don’t have to pay him. He’s already a Biden supporter.”
50 fired off the initial Trump post after seeing Joe Biden’s proposed tax plan, which would apply a 62 percent top tax rate to New Jersey and New York residents who make over $400,000 a year. He doubled down the following day, claiming he didn’t want to be “20 Cent.”
But as Handler told Fallon, she explained to Fiddy why voting for Trump would be a terrible move, saying, “I had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he can’t vote for Donald Trump, and that he shouldn’t be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because he’s worried about his own personal pocketbook.”
Y’all some straight up dummies if you believed him this man is a career troll and people these days are so quick to take everything serious! Lol terrible combination but it work perfect
He’s immature.
Nah, he meant it. The powers to be probably threatened to cancel him. Handler and her goons made him an offer he couldn’t refuse
Just coming here to say… I told you so. He learned how to be a master of free press from Jimmy… Iovine that is.
Lmaoo she punked him for his vote publicily smh. 50 will go at anyone but a racist white woman
So in this circumstance nobody cares about a white person telling a black man how to think?
I’ve been trying to post a reply to your question now for 20 minutes and it keeps disappearing. Can’t believe fascism is has now come to supposed hip hop site. Must be white people running this platform. The kind of white people that think having a sneaker collection makes them one of us.
She’s lying. She’s just one of the many that falls to the mind control of media that she truly believes she’s doing something right by doing so.
yes he was… this bih comes out the woodwork.
Yeah she sounds very racy. I don’t like how she makes it out to be like she needs to help somebody vote. Damn
50 cent acting like a bitch with that skank cred is gone
50 cents is worth 20 cents NOW!!! BECAUSE!! He gave in to the pressure of his 0 sense X girl friend????
