In a recent turn of events, rapper and producer 50 Cent has publicly extended his support to Taraji P. Hensonafter she revealed the struggles she faced working with Oprah Winfrey on the remake of “The Color Purple.”

The bombshell dropped by Henson has reignited the long-standing feud between 50 Cent and Oprah, with the rapper urging Henson to leave Oprah behind and join forces with his production crew.

Henson’s revelation about almost walking away from “The Color Purple” due to low pay sparked a wave of criticism against Oprah’s alleged mistreatment of black artists in the industry. Fans are now connecting the dots, recalling 50 Cent’s past criticisms of Oprah’s actions, accusing her of undermining black actors while protecting white predators.

The rapper, known for his outspoken nature, didn’t hesitate to voice his opinions. 50 Cent, in a recent Instagram post, expressed his readiness to work with Henson, stating, “They dropped the ball f**k taji. I’m ready to work, let’s get it GLG green light gang g-unit film and TV.”

This isn’t the first time 50 Cent has taken a stand against Oprah. The rapper has a history of calling out the media mogul for what he perceives as shady moves in the industry. He has even gone as far as naming his pets after Oprah and her best friend, Gayle King, in a satirical jab at their alleged close friendship.

The feud between 50 Cent and Oprah dates back years, with the rapper once referring to Oprah as an “Oreo” – black on the outside but aligned with white perspectives on the inside. He accuses Oprah of starting with the views of black women but later catering to a middle-aged white American audience.

Other celebrities, including Ludacris and Dave Chappelle, have also faced what they claim to be unfair treatment from Oprah. Ludacris accused Oprah of embarrassing him on her show for using the N-word in his music, while Chappelle alleged that Oprah tried to paint him as crazy for turning down a $50 million deal.

Oprah’s association with convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein has further fueled public criticism. Celebrities like Rose McGowan and Seal have accused Oprah of being aware of Weinstein’s misconduct and even supporting him during the early stages of the scandal.

While many in the industry remain cautious about publicly criticizing Oprah, 50 Cent continues to be one of the few unafraid to challenge her. Fans are applauding the rapper for standing up against what they perceive as Oprah’s questionable actions and are eager to see if his support for Taraji P. Henson will translate into collaboration in the entertainment industry. The ongoing saga between 50 Cent and Oprah highlights the complexities and controversies surrounding power dynamics in Hollywood.
