50 Cent is confused as hell regarding the recent rumor about Brooklyn Nets star James Harden paying Saweetie to date him. After all, he can't believe why a superstar of Harden's caliber would do that.

On Instagram, the famed rapper posted a screenshot of the rumor on a news site with the headline “NBA Star James Harden Allegedly Cash Apps Saweetie $100K. .. For A DATE.” The 45-year-old actor and businessman then went on to express his shock about the issue–even blaming Saweetie's ex-boyfriend Quavo for the shocking development.

For what it's worth, 50 Cent might not need to think too much about it. After all, James Harden himself has addressed the issue and called it a “false” story.

On his Instagram stories, the Nets guard called the viral story something that is only made up for “clout.”

“I’m tired of people creating these false a** stories knowing I really don’t speak on the bull****. Leave me out of all the weird s***. S*** trash. Back to my real life,” Harden wrote. “People really on here just making s*** up for clout. I really stay out the way. CashApp 100K? Beat it.”

Sure enough, the rumor won't die any time soon. Nonetheless, Harden certainly can't focus too much on it or even be affected given the situation he is in. The Nets sharpshooter is currently recovering from a hamstring strain, so the last thing he needs to be thinking about is a rumor about him dating a celebrity.
