50 Cent just reached a settlement in a six-month lawsuit concerning false suggestions that he underwent penis enlargement procedures. Moreover, the case involved Perfection Plastic Surgery & Medspa, specifically its owner Angela Kogan. Not only that, but The Shade Room also caught a lawsuit from the Queens rapper for falsely implying he got an enhancement surgery, though that was settled in February. Furthermore, 50 claimed that Kogan promoted her business using a photo of him, and indirectly suggested he sought services with her for that reason. The case began in September of 2022 after he filed the suit, and finally found a resolution.

However, its terms aren't final yet, according to legal documents obtained by AllHipHop. In addition, most of its agreements so far aren't available to the public. Regardless, at least this marks the end of a pretty long and public ordeal for the "In Da Club" star. His previous settlement with The Shade Room seemed much easier to reach than his spat with Kogan. Fortunately, it looks like all parties are moving things aside, with the outlet retracting its original coverage of 50 and Kogan.

50 Cent Reaches Settlement In Penis Enhancement Case

"The Shade Room previously published an article about penis enhancements on its website and social media accounts," a statement read. "The article and links to the article included a picture of Curtis J. Jackson, III p/k/a 50 Cent, juxtaposed with an image of a faceless male obtaining a penile enhancement procedure, with a euphemistic eggplant emoji covering the exposed groin area. The Shade Room has since deleted that article and social media posts and wants to make it abundantly clear that 50 Cent did not have penis enhancement surgery or any other procedure to augment his genitals, and any implication to the contrary is false."

Meanwhile, this unfortunately doesn't mean the end of the 47-year-old's present-day legal woes. For example, his legal battle with an ex-drug kingpin over "Power" now roped Lionsgate in with a $300 million lawsuit for threats the rapper allegedly made. As such, Fif will likely split a lot of his already stacked endeavors with some cleaning up in court. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on 50 Cent.
