Nick Cannon has taken a shot at 50 Cent over his weight.
Cannon made the comments about 50 while discussing Vivica Fox during Friday's episode of his "The Daily Cannon" podcast.
"You can like, fantasize about Fif from 15 years ago," said Cannon, adding that the old 50 is "different" to the "fat" 50 of today.
"He look like he got a pack of hot dogs on the back of his neck," he said.
After Cannon's cohosts Mason Moussette and Courtney Bee said that they still find 50 attractive, Cannon said: "You looking at them pictures from 'Get Rich or Die Tryin',' now it's get thick or die fryin'."
Below Cannon's Instagram post of the clip, commenters were critical of the "Wild 'n Out" host for commenting on 50's weight.
"Hating on a man and being a chatty patty with women is nasty," commented one user.
Another wrote: "Nick Cannon an omega level hater I swear to god."
One person accused Cannon of being "mad" because 50 roasted him last year over a diss track he aimed at Eminem.
50 called Cannon's diss track "trash," and said he couldn't understand why Cannon would pick a fight with Eminem, who he described as a "different kinda animal."
"Calling him fat don't change the fact 50 is 50 and you are just you," wrote the Instagram user.
50 Cent is yet to publicly respond to Cannon's comments.
In other Nick Cannon news, the father-of-12 recently revealed that he is pushing his children to pursue non-entertainment careers so they won't be considered nepo babies.
A nepo baby, short for nepotism baby, is often used to describe a child of a celebrity who follows in their famous parents' footsteps.
"Out of all my kids, I'm like, if they want to be in entertainment, that's fine, but that's almost easy," Cannon said. "I want you to do something that's challenging, go outside of the box, so you can see effort and perseverance and those things, because they're a nepo baby. There's advantages to a kid. You're just like, 'Oh, this is natural.'"
