50 Cent has weighed in on the alleged assassination attempt on Donald Trump after his single “Many Men” began trending.
Fif took to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday (July 13) and shared the now-famous photo of former President Trump raising his fist after his ear had been bloodied, soundtracked by 50’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’ anthem.
The G-Unit icon posted the photo and wrote: “I know the vibes [palm on face emoji] we are all in trouble now !”
Many users on X were comparing the assassination attempt to 50’s song, in which he raps: “Many men wish death upon me/ Blood in my eye, dawg, and I can’t see/ I’m tryin’ to be what I’m destined to be/ And n-ggas tryin’ to take my life away/ I put a hole in a n-gga for fuckin’ with me.”
50 also shared a photo of Trump’s head superimposed onto the cover art for Get Rich or Die Tryin’. He wrote: “Trump gets shot and now I’m trending [shrugging emoji] http://humorharmonyweekend.com.”
He then performed the song in Boston on Saturday night, with the edited cover as his backing image.
Angel Reese's historic double-double streak ends at 15 games
Angel Reese's WNBA-record consecutive double-double streak ended Saturday as the star rookie finished with eight points and 16 rebounds in the Chicago Sky's 81-67 home loss to the first-place New York Liberty.
Reese finished 3 for 13 from the floor and was limited to just two points on 0 for 5 shooting in the second half. The former LSU standout had an opportunity to get up one final shot attempt on the Sky's final possession of the game, but four Liberty players surrounded her, forcing her to kick the ball out to a teammate.
"[Winning] is what's most important to me," Reese said about the streak on Thursday. "I think I've done a great job, being able to be consistent and I've broken the record already. So [I want to] be able to just be me and do whatever my teammates need."

Meagan Good slams viral clip of Michael Ealy seemingly ignoring her boyfriend Jonathan Majors
Meagan Good wants to make one thing clear: people still like Jonathan Majors, apparently.The D.E.B.S. star called out a viral clip of her Think Like a Man costar Michael Ealy seemingly ignoring her boyfriend, Jonathan Majors, on Instagram Thursday. In a clip originally posted by the Instagram account NitecastMedia, Ealy gives Good a huge hug, lifting her off the ground in the process, and then greets rapper D Smoke and his wife, seemingly giving Majors the cold shoulder as he stands unacknowledged at the PowerPlayers Mix & Mingle event in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
However, in a lengthy comment on The Shade Room’s post, Good insisted that Majors and Ealy greeted each other immediately before the viral footage began. “So we’re just gonna edit out the first part of the video where Jonathan and Micheal exchange a big hug first and then speak life over each other — “before” he gives me a big brother hug?” she wrote. “Lol smh super unfortunate how people don’t have anything better to do than project on others and intentionally perpetuate negative misguided commentary on life snippets they have no real context to. It’s sad. Sigh. But still, God bless yall.”
