50 Cent responds after Vivica A. Fox warns women against dating him

50 Cent fired back at Vivica A. Fox’s dating warning, reminding fans their relationship ended over two decades ago

Rapper and producer 50 Cent has responded to comments made by actress Vivica A. Fox, who recently advised women not to date him. Fox, 61, made the remarks while speaking at the New Jersey Ultimate Women’s Expo, reflecting on her past relationship with the Get Rich or Die Tryin’ star and warning her younger self to “not date 50 Cent.”

In a lighthearted clapback shared on Instagram, 50 Cent posted an AI-generated image of himself holding a red and blue pill, referencing The Matrix. The caption read, “Either way I’m a have that ass in the matrix. You know I love me some you girl, but damn—it’s been 22 years Vivica.” The rapper’s post quickly drew attention, adding another chapter to the pair’s decades-long public back-and-forth.

Fox’s remarks came during a moment of both humor and vulnerability. While her joke—“Don’t date no damn rappers”—earned laughs, she also admitted that it took her years to process the emotional aftermath of their 2003 relationship. “I had to learn to laugh not to cry no more,” she said, noting that she’s now able to look back with perspective.

The two first became romantically linked after 50 Cent flirted with Fox at the 2003 BET Awards, and their relationship lasted about eight months. Despite its brevity, it has remained a topic of public fascination for over two decades, reigniting periodically through interviews, social media posts, and nostalgic moments from their time together.

In a 2024 interview, Fox described 50 Cent as “the love of my life” and said he would “always have a very special place” in her heart—though her recent comments suggest a more complicated view of their history.

The pair’s exchanges over the years have ranged from playful to petty, with 50 Cent previously admitting in an Instagram post that he sometimes looks back and thinks, “I gotta learn to shut the f*** up.”

Their latest interaction proves that, even after 22 years, the chemistry—and the banter—between Vivica A. Fox and 50 Cent continues to keep fans talking.
