The Battle Rages On


For months the world has been privy to the ongoing drama between 50 Cent and his ex Shaniqua Tompkins. The two are in an extended legal battle, and their presence in the press has included stories of public shouting matches, love triangle fist fights, and a mysterious house fire. It's a tale ripe for a book deal. Shrewd business man 50 Cent, however, has managed to make sure his lover-turned-rival won't make a dime from it.

The music mogul managed to buy the rights to Tompkins' life story so she can never write a tell-all book about her relationship with 50 - real name Curtis Jackson. The woman has an 11-year-old son, Marquise, with Jackson and is currently in court with the rapper in custody and

"I bought the rights to her life story so she couldn't write a book," said 50. "I seen her being ridiculous; I knew her capabilities of going in that direction, so I bought the rights," he added.

The G-Unit boss has said that the legal troubles with his ex have stemmed from Tompkins receiving bad advice from her friends. This poor counsel included demands for more child support after 50 moved the woman and his son to a $1.5 million home in Long Island, NY so that the youngster could benefit from a quality school district. The entertainer's resistance to the demands ended in 50 winning a court order to evict Tompkins from the
home.

"Her lawyer decided to present to the public that 50 Cent is kicking his son out of the house." The house was destroyed earlier this year in a fire that authorities called "suspicious."

Since the fire, Tompkins has obtained a restraining order against her ex and has claimed that 50 is responsible for the blaze.

"Now they done kidnapped my first one (son). My son's mother got him, holding him hostage," said 50.

The custody case is scheduled to resume on September 15. child support cases.
