Marv Albert stopped by to clear up all the stories from the weekend about his entourage fighting with 50 Cent's entourage in the green room of the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
Albert said that an associate of 50 Cent wanted to make a call from his dressing room and he got into an argument with a security guard who was guarding the room.
Albert said a reporter from the Los Angeles Times was following them and wrote this. Then the story evolved and became Marv and 50 Cent throwing punches at each other.
"I never crossed paths with 50 Cent," Albert said.
Albert is not happy with the coverage of this non-event: "I'll be able to laugh about this eventually -- maybe in a few days, but it's not that funny to me right now because you see first-hand, and you know this, how a story can be made up and then embellished you know just like a game of telephone tag with no accountability because it never happened."
Albert said the idea of him scuffling with 50 was ridiculous.
"I've never even been in a fight," Albert said. He implied the only person he can see throwing down with is Mike Fratello, because "The Czar" can get under your skin.
Dan asked if he's OK with 50 Cent. Marv said "they're going out for brunch." |
