Fans are accusing 50 Cent of being’sexist’ for reacting to Megan Thee Stallion’s recent lawsuit.
In the suit, Megan’s former cameraman, Emilio Garcia, alleged that he was forced to see the rapper having sex with another woman while ‘stuck’ inside a moving car in 2022.
On Instagram, 50 Cent shared an image of an NBC News article, implying that Garcia and his lawyer should be ‘punched in the head’ due to the allegations.
The rapper, 48, then stated that he would not be ‘offended’ if he saw two women’making out.’
‘This cameraman and the lawyer who filed this claim should be punched in the head. I’m sorry two women start making out, I’m not upset,’ he said, adding: ‘THIS CASE IS THROWN OUT OF MY COURT’
Fans accused 50 Cent of applying a double standard to male sexual harassment victims.
Fans are accusing 50 Cent of being’sexist’ after he reacted to the shocking lawsuit filed against Megan Thee Stallion on Tuesday.
In the action filed on Tuesday, Megan’s former videographer, Emilio Garcia (shown with Megan), alleged that he was forced to see the rapper having sex with another woman while ‘locked’ in a moving car in 2022.
50 Cent reposted a screenshot of an NBC News article on Instagram and suggested that both Garcia and his lawyer be ‘punched in the head’ over the claims. The rapper, 48, then shared that he would not be ‘offended’ if he witnessed two women ‘making out’
‘So it’s ok to be done to a man. That ain’t right,’ wrote one angry commenter.
They continued: ‘He’s probably a family man who has his reputation and job to keep. It’s all different when it’s done to a lady huh.’
Another penned: ‘So… sexually harassing someone is only valid when it’s a woman making the claim?’
Many commenters posed that 50 Cent’s attitude about the situation would be different if his rival Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, 54 — who is currently at the center of a sex trafficking investigation — were the subject of the suit.
‘Y’all wouldn’t taking that [sh*t] if the cameraman said he was trapped in the backseat with Diddy and another man,’ one comment read.
Emilio’s suit against Megan was filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
He is accusing the multi-Grammy Award-winner of harassment and a hostile work environment, per NBC News – he was seen posing with the star in a past image provided to the outlet.
Garcia claims that he was trapped inside a moving vehicle with the star in Ibiza, Spain in 2022 while she had sex with the unnamed woman.

50 Cent insists he did not take Ozempic for weight loss
He claims that after the alleged incident he was told ‘don’t ever discuss what you saw’ and claims Megan ‘berated, fat-shamed and treated him differently’.
He said the ‘harassment was so severe or pervasive’ that it created a ‘hostile, abusive work environment’ that made Garcia’s ‘working conditions intolerable’ in the lawsuit.
In a statement to Page Six, Megan’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, slammed Garcia’s ‘salacious accusations’ and suggested he is trying to ’embarrass’ his client.
‘This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her,’ he said, adding: ‘We will deal with this in court.’
Garcia says he began working for the star as her personal cameraman in 2018, quit his job the following year to work with her full time until June 2023.
He claims the alleged incident happened in June 2022 while in an SUV with Megan and three other women after a night out. He says Megan and one of the women began to have sex next to him in the car.
He told NBC News in a statement: ‘I felt uncomfortable. I was kind of frozen, and I was shocked. At kind of just be the overall audacity to do this right, right beside me.’
Garcia claims the rapper asked him the next day whether he was in the car with them during the sexual act and says she told him: ‘Don’t ever discuss what you saw.’
He further claims it the lawsuit that during the same trip Megan fat-shamed him, calling him a ‘fat b***h’ and telling him ‘you don’t need to be eating.’ leaving him feeling ‘degraded.’
He claims when they returned his compensation structure changed from a ‘monthly flat-rate to a pay-per-task system that required him to submit invoices for each assignment.’
He claims the star’s alleged ‘possessiveness combined with a lack of appropriate pay for the amount of time asked of him’ made him consider quitting.
The suit states Garcia ‘endured a barrage of relentless sexual and fat-shaming comments plunging him into profound emotional distress’ while working with Megan.
