50 Cent's Ex-Girlfriend Claims She Signed Away Her Life Rights Out of Fear and Coercion
Shaniqua Tompkins, ex-girlfriend of 50 Cent, has come forward with a shocking allegation that she signed away her life rights under duress. The claim is centered around a 2007 Life Rights Agreement granted to G-Unit Books, which Tompkins disputes was never entered into freely.
According to Tompkins, financial dependence on 50 Cent played a significant role in her decision-making process. She alleges that Jackson forced her out of a real estate business to increase her reliance on him and pressure her into signing the agreement with his publishing company.
In a sworn affidavit, obtained by AllHipHop, Tompkins claims Chris Lighty, 50 Cent's manager at the time, acted as an intermediary and enforcer, threatening severe consequences if she refused to sign. The encounter allegedly took place in her hotel room, where Lighty told Tompkins that signing the agreement was "non-negotiable."
Tompkins' account suggests she signed under extreme duress, fearing for her life and that of her children. Her claims also involve allegations of physical and verbal abuse during their relationship, as well as a 2008 fire at her Long Island home.
G-Unit Books is seeking $1 million in damages, plus interest and legal fees. The company argues that the public statements Tompkins made, including those on YouTube videos, violate the life rights agreement. However, it appears that she received significantly less than the agreed-upon amount of $80,000, with reports stating she received only $35,000.
The case raises concerns about coercion and exploitation in high-profile relationships, particularly when power dynamics are skewed. It remains to be seen how the court will rule on this matter, but one thing is clear: Shaniqua Tompkins' story highlights the importance of protecting individual rights and agency in such situations.
