Rapper 50 Cent has made no secret of his crush on Helen Mirren, first admitting his admiration for her in a 2017 Instagram post.

“I think I love her man,” he wrote in the caption, accompanying a newspaper photo of himself with the Oscar-winning star of such films as “The Queen” and “RED” when they met at the Cannes Film Festival.

“She knows she turns me on,” he added of the 73-year-old.

His feelings have clearly not diminished since then, and he continued to praise Mirren during a Monday-night interview on Conan O’Brien’s late-night talk show.

“She looked at me and this interesting thing was going on in her eyes,” he told O’Brien. “She knows she’s sexy!”

Could it be possible, asked O’Brien, that 50 and Mirren could get together if her husband, director Taylor Hackford, were to perish in, say, “a zeppelin crash?”

“As long as he’s alive I wouldn’t say ‘yes,’” admitted the 43-year-old rapper. “It’s not right. Because you know what, I don’t want nobody waiting on me to get knocked off in a crash or something. It’s just not the right thing to do.”
