The snapshot, taken during a meet-and-greet at the rapper’s residency at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, quickly became a viral moment on social media.
In the photo, the duo is all smiles, with 50 Cent, 49, captioning the image on Instagram: “@daniellefishel just said fvck it, she’s gonna be fine forever. Happy New Year’s Eve. Vegas vibes! @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.” The playful caption instantly sparked a wave of excitement and nostalgia among fans of both stars.

G-Unit forever! 💚” Fans were thrilled to see this unexpected pairing, with many expressing their joy at seeing two icons from different worlds come together.
Taking to her own social media, Fishel posted a photo from the event, captioned, “Ended 2024 in the BEST way—watching @50cent put on an absolutely incredible show at @phvegas with tons of special guests. My mind was blown, and I danced and sang the entire night.” She went on to thank the team who made the night possible and referred to 50 Cent as a “freaking GEM.”
Fans React to the Iconic Pairing

Social media buzzed with reactions, including one commenter exclaiming, “Never thought I’d see two of my favorite childhood icons in one photo!” Another added, “This is TOP TIER,” while a third humorously declared, “Topanga? My childhood crush!!”
Personal Lives in the Spotlight
While 50 Cent’s playful caption raised a few eyebrows, it’s all in good fun, as Fishel remains happily married to writer and producer Jensen Karp since 2018.
