50 Cent is bound and determined to collect the roughly $30,000 he’s legally owed from Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood personality Teairra Mari.
According to The Blast, the Power mogul is now attempting to seize Mari’s paycheck in an effort to recoup the court costs he had to pay while fighting her revenge porn lawsuit.
Court documents reportedly state, “To date, Mari has failed to pay a single dime to [Curtis] Jackson in satisfaction of the Judgment despite earning over $100,000 this past year. Her previous claims under oath that she is ‘broke’ no longer ring true, and it is more clear than ever that she has no intention of paying her debts.”
Fiddy believes Mari has also tried to “actively conceal her assets and prevent” him from collecting the debt. Mari allegedly made $100,000 in 2019 thanks to her role on the VH1 reality show, but 50 says she didn’t report that income to the court.

He wants the judge to sanction Mari an additional $5,295.50 and force her to turn over additional financial records.
Mari sued 50 and her ex-boyfriend Akbar Abdul-Ahad in May 2017 for allegedly “engaging in a plan to sexually objectify, threaten, intimidate, humiliate and degrade her.” She accused Adbul-Ahad of breaking into her Instagram account and posting a sexually explicit photo of Mari with “ejaculate” on her face.
50 then shared the video to his own Instagram account. But the veteran rapper denied any wrongdoing and said by the time he reposted the image, it was already internet fodder. A judge sided with 50 and awarded him $30,000 in attorney fees in January 2019.
Since then, Mari has refused to cough up any money. Consequently, a judge awarded 50 another $4,000 in July 2019.
