Earlier this month, TV mogul Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson seemed very incensed with his situation with the STARZ network and threatened to pull his top-rated Power Universe series from the network if they didn’t give his show some priority because of its high ratings. This weekend, Fif shared a TikTok on IG showing a committed fan mad about the show’s slow roll out.

The video post’s caption read, “I have 4 more episodes of FORCE, then I don’t have anything airing on STARZ for six months so y’all know the vibes.” The man in the video shouted, “What you mean no shows for six months!?” 50 added, “FORCE is the highest rated premier of any show on the network. when they take too long to green light it, it pushes the production time line back. after tonight’s episode there are 3 left, April 10 it’s a wrap. Then 6 months till i have anything new.”

The issues with STARZ hit the surface at the beginning of the month, saying “They suck, my deal is up and I’m out.”. He added, “Hold my calls i’m traveling,” he wrote alongside a photo of a couple of suitcases. “Getting the fvck away from STARZ. @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi. Anil get your fvcking bag’s in the car now, we are out of here, take that fvcking sign off the door no more G-unit film and television over here.”

50 Cent Calls For The Black Film Community To Start Casting Mo’Nique Again

50 Cent has been known as of late for giving out of work actors jobs. Most notably he found Geoffery Owens a role in Power Book II: Ghost after pictures surfaced of the former Cosby Show actor working at Trader Joe’s. Now, Fif is calling for the Black film community to start casting Mo’Nique again after she was blackballed following her Academy Award-winning performance in Precious.

Fif took to Instagram to call for Mo’Nique’s “uncancellation” in the industry. “I went to see @therealmoworldwide stand-up show [during] Super Bowl weekend. Oh shit! Was so good, she had my ass in a trance,” he told his followers over the weekend. “You gotta go check her out the shit was [fire].”

Fif shared in another post that he has to get Mo’Nique back acting again, maybe in one of his shows. “I gotta get @therealmoworldwide back in pocket,” he said. “We only [supposed] to cancel shit that ain’t good for the culture. We need you to WIN again now MO’NIQUE.”

In his last post, 50 wrote “All in favour of @therealmoworldwide being back on top, say make it happen 50! STOP F*CKING AROUND.”

For those that don’t know, Mo’Nique was blackballed from the film industry following her Best Supporting Actress win at the Academy Awards for Precious. In a recent interview, Mo’Nique explained that Lee Daniels, Tyler Perry, and Oprah blackballed her and labeled her “difficult to work with” after she refused to do press for Precious without being compensated for it. She even told a story of how Tyler Perry and Oprah called her early one morning and told her to pack her bags and do press for the film without any prior notice.

Maybe we’ll see Mo’Nique hit the small screen soon in the Power universe.
