It's well known that Queens rapper 50 Cent grew up with a lesbian mother. He told us in Game's single "Hate It Or Love It", "comin up I was confused, my mama kissin' a girl," but up until now he hadn't said much on the issue. In a recent interview with Perez Hilton, 50 discusses what it was like living with a different kind of mom.
"My mom was a lesbian. Yeah, she liked women. My whole childhood was like that. It's two different things too - from a female perspective, when you see two females together, you think, oh, they're just girlfriends, they're close. But, with my mom, the male was missing."
50 explained that his grandmother took on the task of trying to explain his mother's sexuality, "when you're that small, you don't see things that would indicate there are other things going on. My grandmother would say things like 'That kiss was a little different from all the other kisses you saw.'"
50 has supported Obama's initiative to make same-sex marriage legal across the U.S., and was one of the celebrities who voiced their support for bisexual singer Frank Ocean.
