50 Cent recently sat down with The Hollywood Reporter magazine and shared some intriguing info! ***Warning*** Article Contains Graphic Language 50 Cent Talks About Avoiding Diddy's Parties 50 Cent was asked during the interview about why he has avoided going to one of Diddy's parties, explaining that Diddy once invited him on a shopping trip, which he found strange. He felt uncomfortable with the energy and decided to steer clear. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said "He asked to take me shopping. I thought that was the weirdest s--- in the world because that might be something that a man says to a woman. And I’m just like, 'Naw, I’m not f---ing with this weird energy or weird s---,' coming off the way he was just moving. From that, I wasn’t comfortable around him." 50 Cent Talks About His Past Collaborations with Diddy (Photo by Scott Gries/Getty Images) When asked about his relationship with Diddy, 50 Cent clarified that their interactions were strictly professional, lacking any genuine friendship. He recalled that Jennifer Lopez was the one who initially suggested that Diddy collaborate with him. 50 Cent said that he never socialized with Diddy outside of work, as he believed Diddy often took undue credit for others' creative efforts. He was quoted as saying: "It was mostly work. I wouldn’t call it a friendship because there wouldn’t be disappointment between us if we didn’t speak to each other. There’s points that we worked together. Jennifer Lopez actually told him he should work with me as [a] songwriter in the beginning. And I was around at the early stages, and he could have done my record deal at that point." He went on to say, "I didn’t ever party or hang out with him. Puff is a businessperson; when [people call him] a producer, I see people that were taken advantage of, who produced things that he took from them. He got the credit. He’s not a producer. He’s been able to take advantage of the business and the creatives in it. I don’t have any interest in doing that. I actually fall under the creative. So I just didn’t take to hanging out with that. 50 Cent On Roc Nation Not Wanting Him To Perform At The Super Bowl Halftime (Photo by Rob Carr/Getty Images) 50 Cent also discussed his involvement in the Super Bowl performance, revealing that despite tensions with Jay-Z and Roc Nation, he was included because Eminem insisted on having him there. Eminem made it clear he wouldn’t perform without 50 Cent, leading to his surprise appearance. He said "Roc Nation. Yeah, they didn’t want me there. Eminem wouldn’t do it without me. That’s how I ended up on the show because he was not coming if I didn’t do it. When that happens, you go, 'Damn, so you just lost Eminem because you didn’t bring 50? Damn. All right. Bring 50 then.' But if it was up to them, they would not have me there. I’m the surprise. I’m not on the bill at all. But they couldn’t get Em to do it without me." 50 Cent Hollywood Reporter Video Interview 50 Cent also sat down for a round of quick questions with The Hollywood Reporter.
