Why did 50 Cent and Vivica A Fox break up?

50 Cent and Vivica A Fox dated for a couple of months in 2003. She was a successful actress with big banner films under her belt and the rapper too wasn't doing as bad himself. The release of 'Wanksta', 'In Da Club' and 'P.I.M.P' had put him on the map. The two first connected after 50 Cent gave Fox a shout-out during the 2003 BET Awards.

In the recent interview with VLAD TV's DJ Vlad, Fox said 50's team got in touch with hers, and soon after, the two advanced to talking on the phone and then began to date. They became an item in March 2003, making their relationship red carpet official at the MTV VMA's. Beyonce and Jay-Z performed their duo at the event but the bigger news was 50 Cent and Fox's relationship. 

In the recent interview, Fox reflected on what led to the death of their relationship. She reflected on the fact that they went public too soon and that meddled with the bond they were trying to create. There was too much public attention surrounding their relationship which quickly turned into interference, Fox said explaining they hadn't been dating for too long when they went public. 

“The main thing that killed the relationship was that we just went way too public, way too fast,” Fox said. “The love that I had for him — and still to this day — will always… He was the love of my life. I will admit that without any reservations. He will always have a very special place in my heart.” She stated there were too many people involved in the relationship, which killed what they had.
