Love & Hip-Hop Hollywood star Teairra Mari found that she had to pony up more than 50 cents when a judge ordered her to pay 50 Cent more than $30,000 in attorney fees after her revenge porn lawsuit against the rapper and ex-boyfriend, Akbar Abdul-Ahad, was dismissed on Jan. 11, 2019.

Lawyers for 50 Cent argued that Mari should have to cover his entire $161,660.15 legal bill, but instead the judge ordered her to pay $30,618.

Initially, the reality star sued 50, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, and her ex, after Abdul-Ahad posted explicit images of her on social media in May 2018 allegedly in retaliation for her ending the relationship. In the lawsuit, Mari alleged that Abdul-Ahad went into her Instagram account and posted the graphic video and obscene photo without her consent. Subsequently, 50 reposted the clip to his 18 million Instagram followers.

Mari said in her lawsuit against 50 Cent, that the rapper encouraged fans to hurt her when he captioned his post with the phrase “get the strap.” Jackson denied allegations of intending to incite violence and maintained that he was within his legal right to repost the video because by the time he posted it, it was widely available on the Internet.

Days after the incident, Mari and her lawyer Lisa Bloom announced their intention to file lawsuits against the men at a press conference on May 17, 2018.

“He had my Instagram password, so he posted them on my Instagram to make me look terrible,” Marí said at the conference. “Of course, I was horrified.”

The image, which showed a photo of the singer with semen all over her face, was eventually removed from the social media platform.

On June 14, 2018, a judge denied the starlet the restraining order filed against Jackson so that he and Abdul-Ahad could no longer share the photo.

In a press conference later, Bloom claimed that the judge denied the motion “because she was not convinced that the photo 50 Cent posted, with ejaculate on our client’s face, showed her ‘engaged’ in a sexual act.”

In regards to revenge porn law, the attorney added, “Common sense dictates that photo of a woman with ejaculate on her face clearly depicts a sex act, and is the kind of humiliation the revenge porn law was designed to ban.”

A part of the case was played out for viewers on Love & Hip-Hop Hollywood.

Meanwhile, Mari’s claims against Abdul-Ahad have yet to be decided upon in court.

To say that I am happy with the outcome of my case is the understatement of the century! Jill Stanley is a BEAST at what she does. That is the only way to explain it. She takes no prisoners. She and her team are very skilled and knowledgeable. I am so happy I trusted them to do their job and rolled with Jill's suggestions. I would choose Jill again 100 times. She settled my case for more than I imagined I would receive. I was literally in tears. It is the best feeling to know my pain isn't for naught. Wayne Cohen and Kristopher Yorke were nothing short of amazing. They have the patience of saints. I'm 100% certain that I got on their last nerves with my frustration and tears at every other call I had with them. Being in pain and wanting to just be able to heal was all I could focus on, but they helped me realize that I also had to focus on the bigger picture (the case) so I could put this piece behind me. As a high-strung individual with anxiety, it was hard for me to not worry and let them do their jobs, but they reassured me all of the time that they had this. To be injured before the start of the pandemic and have to receive regular, weekly treatment while others are able to stay home is anxiety inducing. I was in pain, I was anxious, and I was just hoping it all worked out. It more than worked out. I hope Jill, Siri, and Kris know how much their hard work and "hanging in there" meant to me. I am eternally grateful. I can't recommend you all enough. If you choose this law firm, you won't be sorry!
