Media mogul Oprah Winfrey has officially shed her fear of “gangsta rappers” and was recently spotted in the company of Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.
Oprah shared the photo above via Twitter, stating:
You may recall that Miss O’s BFF Gayle King was quite smitten with Fiddy at one time. Well, you know what they say about sharing with the homes, right?
Anywhoo… Oprah has been spending quality time with not only Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, but another famous Jackson as well.

VIDEO: Oprah’s Next Chapter ft. Paris Jackson & 50 Cent

According to the Associated Press:
Michael Jackson’s daughter, Paris, talks about her late father in an interview with Oprah Winfrey airing Sunday.
Paris Jackson, 14, will be featured on “Oprah’s Next Chapter,” the channel said Tuesday. She and Winfrey discuss how the teenager is faring three years after the 2009 death of her pop star father.
“It never gets easier,” Paris says in a promotional spot aired by OWN, which also shows Winfrey asking if Michael Jackson wanted her to have “a quote ‘normal’ life.”
Paris and her brothers, Prince and Blanket, were closely sheltered during Jackson’s life but have been in the public eye since, appearing onstage at Grammy Awards and on other TV shows.
“Oprah’s Next Chapter,” which also will include an interview with Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, will air at 9 p.m. EDT Sunday on OWN.
How do you feel about Oprah’s sudden change of heart when it comes to rappers?
Has she changed her well expressed feelings of dislike for rap stars or is it all about OWN ratings?
Thoughts?

Its just business. She is doing what she does best and that’s getting famous people to talk about things that REALLY MATTER! Too bad I don’t watch OWN.
wonder if Gayle brought her ’round… she and he were “canoodling” after she’d interviewed him earlier this year…
damn I never thought I’d see that…
One word… RATINGS!!
She trying to get back in with black people to save OWN
The Oprah net work is reaching like crazy……
she’s gotta do something to get ppl to watch that awful channel…only good thing on there is ms robbie!
Ain’t it funny how money can change people’s perceptions.
Thats because Gayle King likes him….
All of this is for ratings. Oprah is so transparent.
paris is beautifull btw, she looks like michael, especially her eyes!
I got 2 salute oprah for everything she has done
Great 2 see her and 50 finally make up. 50 is a very positive person, off course his music speaks otherwise, but that is just entertainment. His SMS audio en SK project show his human side.

calm down she just did an interview with him everything is False!
Ok Gina… Its not that deep!! Lol!!
@Gina, seriously….. never mind! SMH
She said, “50, pick me up around 7:00!” He did…and she found out he is really smart.
Ugh, rappers, the bane of black people around the globe and she is swooning over one of them, too bad she would not call him out for using that vile n-word and the one that demeans black women, oh yeah, could not do that, needs the ratings.
Am i slow or what,can never understand Gina’s comments…
I think because he made such a great impression on Gayle King when he visited her talk show that she was willing to meet up with him.
So i’m the only one that noticed she wrote "Fiddy"? :/
I never understand Gina’s comments either. But I assume that comment was for the young folks since its never comprehendable to us adults. I can’t stand to see kids type like that. Half of them struggle to read and write and this is why. Parents teach your children to be articulate. These are our future leaders!!
And Paris is absolutely beautiful but I don’t agree she looks like Michael. LOL. Thats not Michaels biological child people. Sorry. Before Michael lightened his skin, chopped off his nose and woe fabulous silky wigs he was a full fledged jheri curl wearing black man with black features. Cosmetic work doesn’t change DNA. From Paris’ hair to her skin and eyes nothing about her says Black. But I fully respect she is Michael’s child in every other way. Just not biological.
her own network is not working out, so she doing everything in her power to get viewers to watch, I love Oprah, but if this network was not failing I don’t believe she would have ever sat down to talk with 2 quarters…
i dont believe for one minute that oprah was afraid of ganster rappers…pleeze…gimme a break
Fiddy? Who says that anymore? Oprah take a picture with him but don’t try to use the slang, it changes like the wind
