In an interview in FHM magazine, rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube said of Oprah Winfrey: "I've been involved in three projects pitched to her, but I've never been asked to participate."

NEW YORK — Rappers Ludacris and 50 Cent have dissed Oprah Winfrey. Now, Ice Cube has a beef with the talk show queen.

"I've been involved in three projects pitched to her, but I've never been asked to participate," the rapper-actor tells FHM magazine in its July issue, on newsstands June 6.

"For 'Barbershop,' she had Cedric the Entertainer and Eve on, but I wasn't invited," says the 36-year-old rapper, referring to his 2002 movie. "Maybe she's got a problem with hip-hop."

Cube adds: "She's had damn rapists, child molesters and lying authors on her show. And if I'm not a rags-to-riches story for her, who is?"

A call by The Associated Press to Winfrey's spokeswoman at her production company, Harpo, was not immediately returned Friday.

Last month, 50 complained that Winfrey rarely invites rappers on her talk show: "I think she caters to older white women." Ludacris, whose real name is Chris Bridges, told GQ magazine that the media mogul was "unfair" to him during a show he appeared on last October with co-stars from best-picture Oscar winner "Crash."

Earlier this month, Winfrey defended herself in a surprise appearance on New York City-based radio station Power 105.1.

"I listen to some hip-hop," she told DJ Ed Lover. "You know, I've been accused of not liking hip-hop and that's just not true. I got a little 50 (Cent) on my iPod. I really do. Love 'In Da Club.' ... Love that, and you know, love Jay-Z, love Kanye (West), love Mary J. (Blige)."

Ice Cube, whose other films include "Friday" and "Three Kings," will release his latest album, "Laugh Now, Cry Later," on June 6.

Ice Cube wrote very militant songs about Oprah’s fan base and group of people she’s been trying to be apart of most of her career

Some of that shyt could’ve got him killed but someone guided him the right away

Her inviting Cube is like if Obama invited Farrakhan

She doesn’t want THAT TYPE of publicity

What about Luda?

2005: During an October 6, 2005 airing of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Ludacris joined the rest of his cast-mates of the Oscar-winning film Crash to discuss the film and how racism is something in which the whole world participates in and perpetuates. Oprah Winfrey who has famously been highly-critical of hip-hop music and rappers over the years took the opportunity to chastise the rapper for using the "n-word" in his music and that the television mogul did not agree with the content of Luda's music.

In subsequent interviews following his appearance on the show, Ludacris would claim that his rebuttal of Oprah's claims during the show were highly-edited by Oprah's producers and that Oprah had pulled him aside after the show to lecture him about his music, again. Despite the controversy, Ludacris says that he has since made up with the television mogul and would have liked to be asked back to the show.

If she's hating on black males specially I can't agree with that but if she's just hating on rap I can see her point

Jordan don't rock with it either

I like rap but I think it's protected too much this rappers aren't using rap and hip hop to uplift the community at all and they know it

Hip hop lyrics haven’t exactly been positive for the black community

:hubie:

It’s not like she hasn’t had Denzel, or Will Smith on her show.

Will even made a point to acknowledge he doesn’t curse and rap about negativity.
