50 Cent said he still has a crush on actress Helen Mirren, 78, no matter her age.
The rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, discussed his feelings during an interview with Men’s Health for its September issue. “She’s sexy,” he told the outlet of the Oscar-winning actress.
He said he met Mirren at the 57th annual Monte Carlo TV Festival in Monaco back in 2017.
“She’ll look at you, and you go ‘Oh s***!’ I don’t care how old she get, I don’t give a f*** what nobody says, she’s sexy. Her husband [director Taylor Hackford] was just right there with her, he’s going ‘Oh, that’s just what she does,'” the 48-year-old recalled.
“He notices what you notice, that she’s sexy. It’s confidence,” the rapper said of his attraction. “It’s everything she is for all of these years. She’s going to be sexy forever.”

Mirren is a British actress who has been in the industry for decades. She is the only performer to win both the American and the British Triple Crowns of Acting, including an Academy Award and a British Academy Film Award for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II in “The Queen.” Mirren also won a Tony Award and a Laurence Olivier Award for portraying the queen in “The Audience” and three British Academy Television Awards for her performance as DCI Jane Tennison in “Prime Suspect.”
Mirren has been married to Hackford since 1997.
This isn’t the first time 50 Cent talked about Mirren’s appeal. He said the actress “knows she’s sexy” during a 2018 appearance on “Conan.”
“She just looked at me and there was this interesting thing going on in her eyes,” he told Conan O’Brien of seeing his celebrity crush for the first time. “It’s a different thing, like old Hollywood is rich, but it’s another thing. It’s this confidence thing from being tested and proven.”
50 Cent also discussed his upcoming project, which is a television adaptation of the 2002 drama “8 Mile.” He said he’s become close to fellow musician Eminem, who starred in the original.
