Phaedra Parks likely didn’t realize Vivica A. Fox was going to weigh in on her shady “Power” promotional post, but that’s exactly what happened Monday, July 2.

“You don’t rock with #Power??????? @50cent. . . .get the strap ✊🏾 Tune in now for Season 5 🎉. Sidenote: Before y’all start the chatter he ain’t Mr. Chocolate. Everybody knows his strap will have you sprung for 20 years and ain’t nobody got time for that!!!” Parks wrote taking a dig at Fox’s enduring affection for her rapper ex-boyfriend. “I have 2 kings and too many jobs but he smells amazing and is plum fine so keep him in your top 3 fantasy roster 🏆.”

Apparently, Parks tried to prevent Fox from getting the wrong idea after the post got picked up by Baller Alert, according to a text screenshot Fox posted on her Instagram page.

“Hello pretty! I hope all is well. FYI I took a pic with 50 at the ‘Power’ premiere, posted it and heard Baller Alert is trying to make it into some BS towards you and you know I adore you and I have nothing but love for you 😘🙏🏾❤.”

Given her history surrounding all things 50, Fox was not amused.

“Hhhmm…When u have to break out dem receipts on another TOXIC TRICK! I SEE YOU! GURL BYE! I ain’t new to this I’m true to THIS! #RealTalk #BossMoves #TeamVivica #TeamFox #LegitimateCareer #ClassicBadChick #GetAJob 😉 🙌🏾😻.”

She later edited the post to include “THE NERVE TO TEXT ME!?” but the sentiment still remains as she included a video (swipe right) from April telling the haters to “stop being stupid, b—-.”

Parks hasn’t responded to Fox but online commenters have been giving their two cents on the matter.

“Too old for shenanigans!!!”

“Shade is what it is and was. Sit in your bulls— and be an adult petty ass.”

“Phaedra always trying to be slick … get that new toxic trick.”

“Vivica that man don’t want u move on before he gets a restraining order.”

 

 

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
