<p id=”par-1_109″>Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs will be<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/sean-diddy-combs-fci-fort-dix-former-inmate-prison-kiddie-camp.html/”> in federal prison </a>until 2028. That gives him several years to sit down and think about what he has done. While we don’t know what transgressions the disgraced music mogul really regrets, we can venture a guess that he surely regrets what he likely considered an innocent event, inviting 50 Cent to go shopping more than two decades ago. The invitation appears to be the origin of 50 Cent’s distaste for Diddy. If you trace it all back, that invitation many years ago launched <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/50-cent-once-spent-thousands-to-troll-ja-rule-in-real-life.html/”>50’s trolling career</a>. It may be responsible, in a roundabout way, for the docuseries about Diddy that 50 Cent executive-produced.</p>

<p id=”par-2_78″>Many years ago, when 50 Cent was just rising up the music ladder, he connected with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. While 50 Cent apparently had no preconceived notions about the music mogul at the time, one interaction set the tone for their future relationship. During an appearance on <em>The Breakfast Club</em> years ago, 50 Cent discussed how Diddy once offered to take him shopping. 50 Cent said the offer struck him as strange and had him questioning Diddy’s sexuality.</p>
<p id=”par-3_48″>50 Cent was accused of being homophobic based on his retelling of events. He later defended himself, insisting that he was merely stating that the offer made him uncomfortable and felt like unwanted sexual attention from Diddy. He has told the shopping offer story many times since then.</p>

<p id=”par-4_69″>50 Cent was so bothered by the moment, which might have taken place in 2003 at a wedding, that he’s told the story multiple times, across various interviews. He most recently brought it up on <em><a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOOR57dL8Qk”>Good Morning America</a> </em>just days ago. 50 Cent appeared on a morning show alongside director Alex Stapleton to promote <em>Sean Combs: The Reckoning</em>. 50 Cent is the executive producer of the Netflix docuseries.</p>

<p id=”par-5_58″>During the chat, 50 Cent noted that his “beef” with Diddy began when the mogul offered to take him shopping, but 50 explained he felt the invitation was more of a “tester” to see if he wanted to “play” with him. He reiterated that the question made him uncomfortable and that it still doesn’t sit right with him.</p>
<p id=”par-6_58″>Fans were quick to sound off in the YouTube comments and on social media about the docuseries and the interview. Several fans joked that <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/no-one-asked-50-cent-to-address-the-court-in-diddys-trial-but-his-open-letter-is-compelling-regardless.html/”>offering to take the rapper shopping </a>might rank among Diddy’s biggest regrets. Several other viewers wondered if Diddy ever imagined the question would lead to a decades-long “beef” that eventually helped conceptualize the docuseries.</p>

Why Does 50 Cent Really Hate Diddy? </a>
</p>
</div>
<p id=”par-7_50″>Diddy has previously insisted that he has no issue with 50 Cent. He even dismissed 50’s allegations, insisting he was just trying to be a “nice guy” when he offered to take him shopping. Diddy has not commented on 50’s recent trolling efforts or his involvement in the docuseries, though.</p>
