The actress and former Celebrity Apprentice star stopped by Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live Sunday night, along with The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss.
Host Andy Cohen didn’t waste too much time before he asked Fox, who actually dated the rapper back in the day, what she thought about 50 Cent’s statement that the Empire ratings declined because the show has too much “gay stuff.” Fox answered by implying that 50 Cent is gay himself and threw rapper Soulja Boy into the mix. Take a look.

It wasn’t long before he caught wind of the comments and clapped back on social media.
He started by reposting a photo Soulja Boy shared in which he called the actress a “cougar”, “granny desperate for attention” and “washed up.”
He added that Fox should have known that he was an Internet “troll” who would respond.
But of course he didn’t stop there. He went on to blast Fox for saying that she could play all of Halle Berry’s role better than her.
He continued with a photo that he said didn’t need a caption before he uploaded a meme that read, “she gotta have on a diaper.”
As for Fox, she doesn’t seem to fazed by his comments as she responded on Twitter.
