50 Cent Ties Jussie Smollett Hoax To 'Empire' Vs. 'Power'

by HHL JT

50 Cent has his own theory on Jussie Smollet, who just turned himself in on charges he pulled a hate crime hoax.

Police believe Jussie faked the "MAGA country" attack -- and the racist, homophobic letter that preceded it -- because he wanted more money for his role on Empire.

50 thinks it's all part of a broader attempt by Empire to improve its ratings and compete with 50's show Power.

 

"He getting ready to tell the DA @theoriginalbigdaddy knew what I was doing the whole time. He told me it would help Empire’s rating. That POWER show on STARZ was too good. LOL Emanuel Gonzalez #shootemonsight," 50 typed.

Theoriginalbigdaddy is Empire creator Lee Daniels.

Emanuel Gonzalez is the cop who just got exposed for trying to take Fif out. 

So 50 hit a lot of targets with that caption.
