A New York judge has thrown out the $50 million lawsuit brought against 50 Cent by his ex-girlfriend and babymother Shaniqua Tompkins.
As previously reported, there is no love lost between Fiddy and Tompkins. When the Long Island home that he owns and where she and their son lived burned down she accused her ex of arson and of trying to kill her, and sought a restraining order against him. He's sued her for defamation.
But this lawsuit related to claims made by Tompkins that her ex had made a verbal agreement with her when they were a couple that he'd give her half of everything he earned ever, which is how she'd managed to work out he owed her $50 million. But the New York judge hearing the case wasn't impressed with her claim.
Fiddy's lawyer told reporters: "Ms Tompkins's claims pertaining to a $50 million verbal contract were entirely frivolous. In dismissing the case before trial, the court is sending a clear message. This is a complete and total victory for 50".
