50 Cent Says He's Going to ‘Make Sure' Trump's Aware of ‘Really Bad' Things Diddy Said About President
'[Diddy] said some really bad things about Trump, it's not ok. I'm gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy,' 50 Cent wrote in a since-deleted May 30 post to Instagram captured by Rolling Stone. 'Donald doesn't take well to disrespect, and doesn't forget who chooses to go against him. While working tirelessly to make America great again there is no room for distraction. He would consider pardoning anyone who was being mistreated not Puffy Daddy.'

50's sentiments made headlines, and he responded to The Daily Beast's article with another post to IG on Sunday (June 1). 'I didn't say I would Nuke anything, I simply said I will make sure Trump is aware,' he clarified.
Fans had plenty to say about 50 being relentless in keeping his beef with Diddy alive. 'Your biggest mistake in life is making 50 your opp,' one person wrote in his comment section.
Billboard has reached out to Diddy's team for comment.
On Friday, Trump was asked about potentially pardoning Diddy if the mogul ends up getting convicted in his case, which he's currently on trial for. The president detailed how he and Diddy used to be friendly, but that changed since entering the political realm.
'I haven't spoken to him in years,' Trump said. 'He used to really like me a lot. I think when I ran for politics, that relationship busted up. … I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don't like me, it wouldn't have any impact on me.'
50 hasn't taken his foot off the gas when it comes to continuously trolling Diddy, who remains behind bars during his trial. The Queens icon even posted what appeared to be himself rocking an AI-generated 'Free Diddy' T-shirt while at an NBA game between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers last week.
Diddy is facing charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. His trial is expected to last into July, and Combs could be sentenced to life in prison if found guilty on all charges.Best of Billboard

Sengkang Green Primary School suspends three P3 students over death threats; Key takeaways from NDR 2025: Singapore live news
Sengkang Green Primary School says they have suspended three Primary 3 students after it emerged they sent death threats to a classmate's mother who had reported them for alleged bullying offences against her daughter. Prime Minister Lawrence Wong issued a rallying cry as he called on Singaporeans to unite and write the next chapter of the nation's story. PM Wong outlined in his National Day Rally (NDR) speech, on 17 August, several plans the government has to support Singaporeans as they come to grips with multiple challenges. Read more in our live blog below, including the latest local and international news and updates: Sengkang Green Primary School suspends three P3 students over death threats Three Primary 3 students from Sengkang Green Primary School have been suspended after they sent death threats to a classmate's mother who had reported them for alleged bullying offences against her daughter. Facebook user Ni Yin, who claims to be the victim's mother, posted that for almost six months her daughter had been persistently bullied by three boys in her class. She also included an audio clip of the death threats sent to her where a voice can be heard saying: "I might dissect her. I might dissect her into pieces like you. So which one do you want me to do? Dissect her? Or end her life in school? Choose one. Either don't want one, I will kill you instead and your husband." Sengkang Green Primary School, in response to CNA, revealed it has engaged with the parents of the three students on their actions, and those who made the calls and threats were immediately suspended. However, the school added that "in the course of the school's investigations, we found that the affected student had also engaged in hurtful behaviours." The girl's mother said the school's statement about her daughter's behaviour "deeply harms the victim, diverts public attention, and shifts blame onto the child". The family of the girl made a police report after receiving the death threats. They also raised the issue with the Ministry of Education (MOE) and their Member of Parliament (MP). NDR 2025: Key takeaways Prime Minister Lawrence Wong delivered his first National Day Rally after the General Election 2025. Here are key takeaways from Sunday night's speech. More details about each topic in the links. Vaping will be treated as a drug issue with much stiffer penalties to be imposed. Govt to help workers better use AI in a bid to raise productivity and create new value in the economy. Schools to help students adapt to new technologies like AI while developing human qualities. Singapore to consider more ways to support parents and make online spaces safer for children. Match job seekers to roles nearer to home: Community development councils (CDCs) to lead effort. New state-funded traineeship programme for ITE, poly, university graduates. Rolling out of Age Well Neighbourhoods to support seniors. First homes at former Kranji racecourse to be ready in about 10 years. New Islamic college to be located next to SUSS in Rochor. You can watch PM Wong's full speech from the National Day Rally 2025, here. Singapore steps up anti-vaping efforts on public transport Commuters caught vaping in public transport spaces will be "removed from the premises and reported to authorities", warned the Land Transport Authority (LTA) on 18 August. LTA added that the police may be called in for offenders "found to be intoxicated" and that "our station staff are on active patrol to keep our public transport spaces safe and smoke-free." Echoing LTA, operator SMRT also released a statement today on Facebook reminding the public that vaping is "strictly banned" on their public transport network. "We enforce a zero-tolerance policy and will not hesitate to report offenders to the relevant authorities." The statements follow shortly after Prime Minister Lawrence Wong's announcement during Sunday's National Day Rally speech where he declared the government will treat vaping as a drug issue with stiffer penalties to be imposed.

NDR 2025: What analysts thought of PM Wong's rallying cry The Straits Times interviewed a number of analysts to offer their thoughts on Prime Minister Lawrence Wong's National Day Rally speech on 17 August. Dr Gillian Koh, a senior research fellow at the Institute of Policy Studies (IPS), described the speech as a rallying call around the Singapore spirit.

Dr Mathew Mathews, a principal research fellow at IPS and head of its Social Lab, said PM Wong's emphasis that Singapore must be a 'we first' society instead of "me first" was a much-needed refrain.

WP urges govt to engage widely and consider all options amid global uncertainty The Workers' Party (WP) – Singapore's largest opposition party – have responded to Prime Minister Lawrence Wong's National Day Rally speech. They urged the government to "leave no stone unturned" as Singapore looks to thrive despite global economic uncertainty. "Against this cautious backdrop, the Workers' Party urges the government to engage widely and explore all solutions tabled in good faith, including previously untapped ones," said WP. Among the needs addressed in WP's lengthy statement included ensuring that Singapore's economy remains resilient and keeps up with the times. "We reiterate our manifesto proposals that JTC Corporation should expand its market share for industrial space and continue offering low-rent options at different price-value points for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) alongside its private sector-run facilities," said WP.

Leona and her pink kaftan conquer Merdeka 118 Tower
18 Aug - Social media influencer Leona has recently become the first woman to have ever conquered the Merdeka 118 Tower. The content creator, who is also the daughter of actor Azhar Sulaiman, did so as a part of a challenge hosted by radio station ERA; where two of its "3 Pagi" show presenters Nabil Ahmad and Radin climbed up the 2,845 steps to the top of the tower. Joining the two presenters were Leona and Muar MP Syed Saddiq. Not only was she the only woman in the group of men, Leona climbed the tower while wearing a pink kaftan. "Leona is truly powerful," the caption on ERA's official Instagram post read. On the other hand, Leona seemed to be taking her achievement in a very relaxed and unserious fashion, as she commented, "Next, ERA will host a special segment for me, right?"
