"Stop bullying Madonna for enjoying her life."
After multiple previous incidents, a feud between 50 Cent and Madonna has reignited this week.
Madonna is keen on social media and recently posted a TikTok video of her lip-syncing to the Baby Keem track, Vent. 50 Cent watched the video, reposted a still from the clip with the text, "Madonna Using Rap Music For Clout On TikTok Is Pathetic And Truly Disturbs My Spirit", and left his own caption on Instagram. He wrote: "I told ya'll grand ma was on bullshit! like a virgin at 64. LOL."
The Like A Prayer singer later posted an Instagram story that seemingly addressed the In Da Club rapper head-on; the story saw a picture of Madonna and the text, "stop bullying Madonna for enjoying her life".
This isn't the first time 50 Cent and Madonna haven't gotten along online. Last year, the rapper cited a series of racy images Madonna posted on Instagram; he described her as "shot out... if she don’t get her old ass up". She responded, "I guess your new career is getting attention while trying to humiliate others. The least elevated choice you could make as an artist or an adult. You’re just jealous you won’t look as good as me or have as much fun when you are my age!"
50 Cent then issued her an apology, writing in a since-deleted tweet: "I’m sorry I did not intend to hurt your feelings. I don’t benefit from this in any way. I said what I thought when I saw the picture because of where I had seen it before I hope you accept my apology." Madonna called his sorry "fake," "bullshit," and "not valid."
In June this year, 50 Cent reposted the singer's latest spicy pictures and mocked her. His caption read: "I hope she didn’t make her kids take this picture. LOL at 63 somebody tell her to chill out please".

Earlier this year, Madonna confirmed that she is directing her own biopic to prevent "misogynistic men" from mistelling her story. Rumours of who will be cast in the lead role have circulated since the initial announcement. Julia Garner, the star of the Netflix hit series Ozark reportedly offered the role and was considered the most likely choice to fill Madonna's shoes. Entertainment Weekly have reported that Uncut Gems star Julia Fox has been offered the position of Madonna's longtime friend, actress Debi Mazar.
