During his October 13 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, 50 Cent again attributed a funeral-style flower arrangement delivered to Miami’s E11EVEN club last December to Sean “Diddy” Combs. Complex reports that 50 described recognizing the sender from the gesture and the card; the account is his claim, not a confirmed identification.

A repeated claim, still disputed

50 also joked that Combs watched the Netflix series Sean Combs: The Reckoning on a jailbroken iPad and that he sent Combs “a bump on the head” in return. Those were jokes in the interview, not evidence about the flowers or Combs’s reported head injury.

The old response remains part of the story. When the bouquet claim first surfaced in December 2025, a Combs spokesperson told Complex the delivery “didn’t happen” and suggested someone might have played a joke in poor taste. The October retelling does not resolve that denial, so the sender remains unverified in the available reporting.
