50 Cent Says He’d Accept an Invite to Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce’s Wedding — and Collab With Her
50 Cent is looking to go from “In Da Club” to the wedding reception. The G-Unit sat down with ExtraTV on Wednesday (Oct. 22), during which 50 relayed he’d gladly accept an invite to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding.
“I would make my way over there,” 50 said when asked if he’d pull up to the wedding. The 50-Taylor chatter has been bubbling since Swift name-dropped the Queens legend on her The Life of a Showgirl track “Ruin the Friendship.”
“It really is cool because when she makes the reference, it’s to what was going on in culture at that time. The music, you couldn’t miss it,” he said. “What she was making reference to is the period that no one was more prominent in music at that point.”
50 added that he’s a fan of T-Swift’s fiancé, Travis Kelce, and even seemingly took a playful jab at the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s last relationship before Swift.
“I like her boyfriend, too. I like the team, I like KC,” he said. “I do [like them together]. I like it a lot better than the last thing he had going on. It’s a lot better.”
50 Cent would come out of rap retirement to potentially hop on a Swift track as well, but agreed it’s totally up to her as one of music’s giants shaping the industry. “You got to ask her because you know how big Taylor Swift is right now? She has to have a record that sounds like it might sound good with 50,” he said.
The shout-out from Swift to 50 on “Ruin the Friendship” goes: “And it was not an invitation/ But as the 50 Cеnt song played/ Should’ve kissed you anyway.”
50 Cent was ecstatic to hear the name-drop and immediately took to social media to flex for his millions of followers. “@taylorswift s–t is popping right now,” Fiddy wrote on Oct. 3, the day her album arrived. “she shout me out, she don’t shout you out. LOL. THIS IS FOR BIG TIMERS ONLY! I’m the only shout out on the whole album.”
“Ruin the Friendship” serves as the sixth track on Swift’s 12th studio album, and the song debuted at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.
