50 Cent Suggests Wendy Williams Was Targeted by Diddy: A Deepening Feud and Unsettling Timeline

In recent weeks, rapper and producer 50 Cent has once again made headlines—not for music, but for his persistent and public scrutiny of Sean “Diddy” Combs. While 50 Cent is no stranger to calling out other celebrities, his focus on Diddy has been unusually consistent and increasingly intense. His latest statements bring a familiar name back into the conversation: Wendy Williams.

According to 50 Cent, Wendy may not just be another media figure who clashed with Diddy—she may have become one of his targets. The timeline, he argues, is too precise to be ignored.

Williams, known for her unfiltered commentary and bold on-air confrontations with celebrities, has a long history of reporting on Diddy’s private life and career. In the ’90s and early 2000s, she openly discussed rumors about Diddy’s relationships, his alleged behavior behind the scenes, and the power he held in the entertainment industry. At the time, Wendy was one of the few radio hosts willing to question the mogul so publicly.

Back then, her commentary came at a cost. She confirmed in a resurfaced interview that she was fired from Hot 97 after mocking Diddy on-air. “They didn’t want me exposing rappers,” she explained. That incident, however, wouldn’t be the last time her career seemed to take a hit after speaking out.

50 Cent believes that Wendy’s years of challenging Diddy, both directly and through industry gossip, eventually caught up with her. He claims to have evidence suggesting that the troubles Williams has faced in recent years—her health deterioration, financial turmoil, and sudden removal from the public eye—are not entirely natural or coincidental.

Wendy’s decline became widely visible starting in 2018. That February, she canceled several tapings of her talk show, citing flu-like symptoms. She returned to the show shortly after, but her on-air presence began to show signs of instability. She slurred words, lost focus mid-sentence, and repeated herself. Fans initially assumed exhaustion or relapse. But the situation kept worsening.

In 2019, Wendy stepped away from the show entirely due to complications from Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder. The show cited her hospitalization and need for extended care. Eventually, Wendy disappeared from daytime television altogether, replaced by rotating guest hosts and vague press updates.

Then, in 2022, her finances became a public issue. Wells Fargo froze her accounts, stating concern that she was being financially exploited. A court-appointed guardian was brought in to manage her money, but Wendy later alleged that even the guardian mishandled her funds. She was left with no access to her own finances and began speaking out—though her interviews were frequently cut short or canceled altogether.

In a now widely circulated clip, Wendy looks directly into the camera and says:

“I have no money. And if it can happen to me, it can happen to you.”

Her voice was shaky. Her message, clear.

50 Cent argues that Wendy’s downfall was not solely due to health or business mismanagement. He believes that her decades-long feud with Diddy played a role—that someone with Diddy’s history of strong-arming rivals could have sought quiet revenge.

The theory gains weight when viewed in context. Wendy had long been a thorn in Diddy’s side, and as 50 Cent notes, she was talking about him in the media long before he began doing so himself. Wendy frequently broke stories about Diddy before traditional news outlets caught on—reporting on relationships, label controversies, and more.

Now, 50 Cent believes the silence around Wendy’s current state is intentional. “If what’s happening today had happened three years ago,” he says, “Diddy’s face would be the only thing on the Hot Topics segment of Wendy Williams’ show.” But that show is gone. So is her team. So is her platform.

Supporters online have also started to piece together the timeline. Many recall Wendy’s confrontations with Diddy in the early 2000s, when she accused him of exploiting artists at Uptown Records and hinted at relationships and behaviors that were taboo to discuss publicly at the time. Every time she spoke out, some change occurred—whether it was her losing a job, being discredited, or simply disappearing from the spotlight for a while.

In recent documentaries and interviews, Wendy’s story has only become more tragic. Once a daytime icon and pop culture fixture, she’s now portrayed as isolated, financially limited, and medically monitored. Her son, Kevin Jr., has publicly criticized the guardian appointed to manage her affairs. Friends have said Wendy is often left alone for long stretches and receives delayed care.

All of this, 50 Cent suggests, didn’t happen by chance.

While there is no direct proof linking Diddy to Wendy’s personal and professional collapse, the growing number of coincidences—and the pattern of retaliation he’s been accused of—have raised questions. Diddy is currently facing several legal challenges, including civil lawsuits involving coercion and abuse. And while those cases are still ongoing, the mood in the industry has changed.

People are looking at old feuds differently.
They’re connecting dots they once ignored.
And Wendy’s story—her rise, her fall, and her silence—is starting to look less like a mystery and more like a warning.

Whether 50 Cent’s “proof” ever becomes public remains to be seen. But one thing is clear:
Wendy Williams didn’t just clash with Diddy—she may have paid the price for it.
