Vivica A. Fox has recently made rare comment about her lifelong connection with former flame 50 Cent.

Calling the rapper “a gift”, Fox told PEOPLE, “To be honest, it's kind of like the gift that keeps on giving.”

“We're friends. There's no negativity,” declared the 61-year-old.

Fox also gave a reference of her latest comment she made about the rapper at the Ultimate Women’s Expo in Edison, N.J.

“Everyone got a good chuckle out of it, and it was refreshing to not fight with him,” stated Fox.

Earlier in a November 18 episode of Sherri, hosted by Sherri Shepherd, the actress clarified her comment about the singer.

“We’re no longer fighting, y’all … You know you got that one [person] that you always got a little special place for … We are in a good place,” she further said while speaking to Shepherd.
