50 Cent Sues Ex-Girlfriend for Defamation Over Sexual Assault Allegations
Share
Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his child, Daphne Joy, after she accused him of sexual assault during their relationship.
The suit follows a recent public dispute stemming from Joy’s mention in one of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ controversial lawsuits, as reported by Radar Online.
Joy launched a lengthy online tirade against 50 Cent after he made comments mocking her name for being mentioned in a lawsuit against Diddy.
In her Instagram Story, Joy accused the G-Unit rapper of putting her life in danger with his online trolling, stating, “Everything is a joke to you until our safety is compromised, which is happening now. You are wreaking real havoc, frenzy, and chaos onto people’s lives.”
Additionally, Joy criticized 50 Cent for being an absentee father despite his legal fight for sole custody of their 11-year-old son, Sire.
“We moved to New York to give you the opportunity to be a father to your son, but you only saw him 10 times in the two years we lived 1 mile away from you,” she wrote. “I am tired of upholding and protecting an image to our son that you have never even earned.”
Joy escalated the situation further by alleging that she had been sexually assaulted and physically abused by the rapper, stating, “Let’s put the real focus on your true evil actions of raping me and physically abusing me.”

50 Cent’s legal team dismissed Joy’s allegations as “false and baseless” and expressed their intent to seek legal custody of their son.
His legal representatives stated, “The disturbing allegations in the sworn pleadings recently filed in a court case related to Daphne Joy, the mother of my twelve-year-old child, have required me to take all necessary legal actions to protect my son Sire.”
50 Cent claims that Joy responded to his demand to retract her statements by making “extortive” demands for millions of dollars and for him to drop the custody case.
He is seeking $1 million in damages and a court order requiring Joy to remove the online post and refrain from making further defamatory remarks.
“Ms. Narvaez has shamefully chosen to interfere with her 11-year-old son’s relationship with his loving father by falsely calling him a ‘rapist,'” said Jain.
“The motivation behind this appears to be Ms. Narvaez’s unfortunate entanglement and misguided loyalty to Mr. Combs, who we believe to be underwriting this attack and whom Mr. Jackson has been warning Ms. Narvaez and others about for many years.”
In response to the allegations, Narvaez posted on Instagram that she is deeply hurt by the claims in Jones’ lawsuit and plans to pursue legal action.
Jackson’s legal battle with Narvaez continues to unfold as he seeks to defend his reputation and relationship with their son. USA TODAY has reached out to Narvaez for comment.
The lawsuit notes that Jackson “has been subjected to extensive public ridicule, hatred, and contempt, with members of the public calling for Jackson to be ‘cancel(ed)’ or ‘throw(n)… in the trash,’ and going so far as to praise prior attempts on his life.”
Jackson is seeking monetary damages and the removal of Narvaez’s post.
