Lisa Bloom, speaking, and Walter Mosely hold a press conference with their client Teairra Mari (C) about new legal action against rapper 50 Cent and Akbar Abdul-Ahad at The Bloom Firm on May 17, 2018 in Woodland Hills, California

50 Cent was reportedly awarded $30K in the legal win.

In May 2018, Teairra Mari fell victim to her sex tape leaking online. She has been accused by some of her co-stars on Love & Hip-Hop of releasing the footage herself in order to get some cheap publicity but she defused those rumors by taking her ex-boyfriend and 50 Cent to court. It makes sense that she would be suing Akbar Abdul-Ahad since she believes that he was the one to leak the footage. However, 50 Cent's involvement is a little dubious. The rapper reposted a photo from the sex tape onto his own Instagram profile before it was taken down and Teairra sued Fiddy because of the fact. After months of battling in court, Fif has officially walked away with the win.

Mari was being represented by a few heavy hitters in Hollywood's legal scene but that apparently wasn't enough to get her a win this time around. According to The Blast, 50 Cent is walking away from court with $30K more in his pocket after Teairra Mari was forced to pay up when the claims against the rapper were dismissed. Despite leaving victorious, Fiddy is still losing money in this case. He fought with the judge to have Teairra pay the entire $161K+ legal fee but he was not awarded the full amount. So basically, nobody wins here.
