After being sued, 50 Cent couldn't resist his natural instinct to troll and poke fun at the situation. The Los Angeles Times reported that the rapper is facing legal action from photographer and social media journalist, Guadelupe De Los Santos. De Los Santos alleges that 50 and his crew attacked him while he was riding a scooter, using the door of an SUV to strike him.
To represent him in this case, De Los Santos has enlisted the help of renowned attorney Gloria Allred. In response, 50 took to his social media account and posted a series of photos showing him and Allred chatting and smiling together. He captioned the first photo with a cheeky remark, "The moment I realized I don't like lawyers, Gloria you should know better, chase a different ambulance. @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi". The photo showed 50 and Allred exchanging smiles and friendly banter.
In the second photo, 50 teased Allred by jokingly saying, "Gloria you're not gonna get any money from me that way, but if you call me I'll take you to dinner. LOL @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi". It was clear that 50 was not taking the lawsuit seriously and was using his signature trolling tactics to respond to the situation.
The lawsuit, which was filed on January 27th in Los Angeles County Superior Court, claims that De Los Santos was injured after taking photos of 50 with his cellphone. According to the lawsuit, while De Los Santos was waiting at a traffic light, 50's SUV pulled up behind him and the front passenger door suddenly opened, hitting him.
The lawsuit also states that De Los Santos suffered injuries to his lower body and torso, as well as emotional distress. It requests a jury trial and asks for 50 to cover legal fees, pay damages, and face other consequences as deemed appropriate by the court.
One of 50's lawyers responded to the lawsuit, stating that their client has not yet been served with a copy of the lawsuit and that it is a frivolous claim. They also mentioned that they will take swift action to dismiss the case and seek compensation for their client's legal expenses and any other remedies available under the law.
This isn't the first time 50 has found himself in legal trouble. In a separate incident, a dentist was sentenced to 15 years in prison for stealing pain medication from patients during surgery. It seems like 50 will have to put his trolling aside and focus on his legal battles for now.
