50 Cent apologizes to Madonna for poking fun at her racy lingerie photos

50 Cent shared a begrudging apology to Madonna on Thursday for making fun of a set of steamy photos she posted around Thanksgiving.

The 46-year-old rapper reposted a photo of himself and the 63-year-old pop icon that had been taken nearly two decades earlier as he walked back his mocking comments on Twitter.

‘I must have hurt Madonna feelings,she went and dug up a old MTV photo from 03 [sic],’ he began his post, adding a shoulder shrug emoji.

‘Ok Im sorry i did not intend to hurt your feelings,’ he continued. ‘I don’t benefit from this in anyway i said what i thought when i saw the picture because of where i had seen it before i hope you accept my apology [sic].’

The hitmaker attached the same photo from 2003 of herself affectionately posing alongside him that she used to call out his phoniness.

Madonna didn’t appear to have directly responded to 50 Cent’s tweet, though she returned to Instagram with a striking new set of images from a photoshoot.

She appeared facing the camera and with her back to it in two photos while posing next to a drawing of a nude woman with her legs spread apart.

The photos were reminiscent of images she posted earlier in November that were taken down by Instagram, seemingly because one of her nipples was exposed. 

‘I’m reposting photographs Instagram took down without warning or notification….. The reason they gave my management that does not handle my account was that a small portion of my nipple was exposed,’ she wrote amid a longer caption. ‘It is still astounding to me that we live in a culture that allows every inch of a woman’s body to be shown except a nipple.’

And they try to shame me or humiliate me or make me feel less than because I am not like everyone else.

‘But in fact, I cherish my uniqueness and I’ve grown stronger because to be unique is to be rare.’
