In an interview with Tim Westwood on 1Xtra, 50 Cent spoke on the lawsuit filed by Rick Ross’ baby mother, Lastonia Leviston.
“That wasn’t me, that was Pimpin’ Curly,” said 50, placing the blame for the sex tape he leaked featuring Leviston on his comical alter-ego. “When a a person tries to say… you’ve done a mental harm to them. Then they might want to consider the recordings of Rick Ross saying that she’s an actual call girl. Or the pamphlets that I’m showing in the tape, that’s saying that she’s available. So how distraught is she that a tape went out? They think I bought the tape, I didn’t even buy it.”
The sex tape was released at the height of the Rick Ross/50 Cent fued. The Pimpin’ Curly character was featured in a series of short episodes, and was used as a vehicle to diss Ross.
Since the release of the sex tape, the beef seems to have quieted down, though the two sides have not come to terms with one another.
