50 Cent says Beyonce ‘jumped’ him over Jay-Z feud: ‘She was ready to fight’

A well-known rapper has opened up for the first time about his very unexpected clash with Beyonce following an incident with her husband, Jay-Z.

Seven ways Beyonce changed the way

Rapper 50 Cent has revealed the moment he found himself confronted by none other than Beyonce over his feud with Jay-Z.

The performer said the rapper’s wife “jumped out” at him and “was ready to fight” after he stopped by to talk to her husband in Las Vegas many years ago, New York Post reports.

“She was on a windowsill. We were in Vegas,” he said during an appearance on podcast The Breakfast Club.

The 47-year-old rapper said Beyonce “jumped out” and pulled a confrontational face at him.

“And I’m like, ‘Wait, what is you doing? That’s me and Jay-Z’s stuff, this ain’t got nothing to do with you, girl,’” 50 Cent told hosts Charlamagne tha God and DJ Envy.

Though his clash with the Jay-Z never escalated into a full-blown feud – unlike his everlasting beef with Ja Rule and Rick Ross – the two rappers didn’t quite see eye-to-eye in the early 2000s.

The rapper admitted he was taken aback by Beyonce’s reaction to their quarrel.

“I was like, ‘Oh, sh*t!’ I didn’t really know what to do,” he said. “It was one of those situations where you were like, ‘Woah!’ If you say this to Jay, he’ll look at you and go, ‘Nah, that happened.’

“I’m like, ‘Woah, woah, woah.’ She throwing me off now ’cause I don’t know exactly how to respond to this. You are still Beyonce. She brought all of the sexy over with that energy jumping off.”

Co-host Charlamagne tha God then brought up Beyonce’s sister Solange, who famously attacked Jay-Z in a lift after the 2014 Met Gala.

“You’re lucky Solange wasn’t there,” Charlamagne told the rapper.

“If Solange was there, I would’ve had to reboot!” 50 Cent joked, adding, “Solange was popping in that elevator like it was nothing. With some gangster sh*t going on. Jay couldn’t do nothing, huh?”
