50 Cent issues statement on shocking ‘Ciara grope’ pics after uproar
50 Cent has issued a statement after the hip hop community was shocked and appalled by a series of racy pictures he posted on Instagram — which, they believed, showed married R & B singer Ciara grabbing his genitals.
On Monday, Fiddy marked the 16th anniversary of his third album, Curtis, by posting sexy shots from the record’s liner notes, reports Page Six.
In one of the pictures, a woman is seen standing behind him — her face obscured by his torso — with one hand fondling his rippling abs and the other shoved down the front of his open pants.
Cue all hell breaking loose.
Major rap magazine Vibe ran the headline “50 Cent Shares Lewd Photos Of Ex, Ciara” and many followers appeared to feel aggrieved on behalf of Ciara’s now-husband, Russell Wilson. “Yo, that’s someone’s wife now Fif. Take these posts down,” said one, with another adding, “Fif calmly saying I hit it first is next level.”
Yet a third said, “Russell Wilson ain’t going to like this.”

The trouble seems to have been caused because, when the record came out in 2007, the In Da Club rapper was dating Ciara, and, it seems, the rap world has been under the impression ever since that his then-girlfriend appeared in the shots with him.
And while 50 Cent is hardly press shy, even he seemed to recognise that this particular scandal isn’t a good look.“Two different models are featured on the ‘Curtis’ album cover,” 50 Cent’s longtime rep Amanda Ruisi told Page Six exclusively, “neither of whom is Ciara.”
