As reported here, ‘Set It Off’ star Vivica A. Fox set off a firestorm of controversy last night when she took to ‘Watch What Happens Live…With Andy Cohen’ and implied former boyfriend, rapper 50 Cent, was gay.  Referring to the former hit music star as a “booty snatcher,” the actress set social media alight with her comments – including retaliations from the rapper himself.

But, if you thought his responses last night were enough, you thought wrong.  50 continued his rants early into this morning and, as a result, earned a few clapbacks from Fox.  See it all below:

Mariah Carey isn’t just flexing her vocal chords these days, she’s beefing up her acting resume.

It’s been almost 15 years since the disaster / cult classic that was ‘Glitter’ and, in the time since, Mimi has largely made right the wrongs of the ill-advised flick with critically praised roles in ‘Wise Girls,”Precious,’ and ‘The Butler.’

This year, the songbird signed on to produce and star in a Holiday film and it appears like it doesn’t stop there.

According to new reports, the 45-year-old will play a role in a new Batman movie. Just not the one you might be thinking.

Does Vivica A. Fox eat the booty like groceries?  Let ‘Magic Stick’ emcee 50 Cent tell it, the actress has this and a few other bedroom tricks up her sleeve.

The two are engaged in a social media catfight after Fox took to ‘Watch What Happens Live…with Andy Cohen’ to discuss 50’s comments on ‘Empire’s ratings decline. As fans may remember, the rapper implied the show was losing fans due to “too much gay stuff.”
