“Empire” Star Responds To 50 Cent’s Trolling: “He’s A Weirdo” [Video]

Written By Cyrus Langhorne

“Empire” actress Ta’Rhonda Jones has responded to shade thrown at her show from 50 Cent. The Hollywood actress has offered her two cents on the “Power” executive producer bashing the hit Fox TV series.

In a new interview, Jones questioned Fif’s antics and applauded “Empire” co-star Taraji P. Henson for checking him on social media.

“I think on this side we’re more mature,” Jones said referring to her “Empire” team. “It’s just 50 though. It’s just him. He’s a weirdo. I think he needs a hug – dude needs a hug because he keeps it going on and on and on. I love the fact that Taraji handles it the way that she does. And I love the fact that she kept reminding him that he’s a black man because if you read her stuff, she’s pretty much saying why can’t we win together? Why does it always have to be a competition between us when these are two different shows. These are two different shows talking about two different things. Why is it that you’re always trying to compare your shows with ours. I think it’s an insecurity issue. I just say he’s a weirdo and if he needs help, I know a good therapist.” (TMZ Live)

Last weekend, 50 promised the “Empire” run would soon meet its demise.

Both Henson and “Empire” co-star Vivica A. Fox went at 50 last week over him bashing their show’s season three premiere ratings.

Last week, Fif acknowledged “Empire” experiencing a lower premiere rating than its previous season’s opener.
