Omar Gooding Falls Victim to Cam’ron’s Elaborate Fake Movie Prank

Omar Gooding found himself the target of an elaborate prank orchestrated by rapper Cam’ron, who hired the actor for a fake movie role that will never see the light of day. The Harlem rapper revealed his scheme on Instagram, announcing his new concept called “Book My Opps” while sharing footage of the Miami-based hoax.

The $3,500 Revenge Plot

Cam’ron took to Instagram recently to reveal that he pranked Gooding by hiring him as an actor for a fake movie, telling followers: “I booked the n—a to do a movie that’s never coming out like three weeks ago.” The elaborate setup cost the rapper approximately $3,500, covering Gooding’s hotel, flight, and other expenses for the fake production in Miami.

The prank represents the latest escalation in an ongoing feud between the two entertainers. During the Instagram revelation, Cam’ron explained: “Yeah, Omar. That movie that you flew down to Miami for? It ain’t no movie coming out. I booked you. And I was laughing at you behind the scenes. I was there. I was sitting there laughing at you.”

Origins of the Cam’ron-Omar Gooding Feud

The beef traces back to December 2024 during an episode of Cam’ron’s show “Talk With Flee.” The conflict began when Cam’ron mistakenly confused Omar Gooding with his older brother Cuba Gooding Jr. by adding the Jr. suffix after the younger Gooding’s name during a conversation with 50 Cent about certain Black actors not having consistent work.

During that controversial discussion, Cam’ron made comments about Black actors waiting for opportunities. He stated: “Like Ving Rhames, you sitting around, or Omar Gooding Jr., y’all n—as sitting around — I would have saved my money and shot my own sh– by now — but the Black actor has to sit around for a 50 Cent or somebody in your lane to come pick them up to put them in something.”

Musical War Escalates

The situation intensified when Omar Gooding responded with three diss records aimed at the Harlem rapper. The actor has been releasing music tracks targeting Cam’ron on his YouTube channel, turning their disagreement into a full-blown hip-hop beef.

Cam’ron’s “Book My Opps” Strategy

The fake movie prank represents Cam’ron’s newest strategy in handling conflicts. He announced plans to continue this approach, saying: “Now do another record; I’ma book you for my goddaughter’s baby shower. Her sh– is in October and we’ll book you to do all the diss records. I’ll pay you for that too because what I’ma start doing is paying n—as just to laugh at them.”

The rapper compared the cost-effectiveness of his prank to other entertainment expenses, noting that booking enemies for fake projects costs significantly less than attending NBA games.

Omar Gooding’s Response

True to form, Omar Gooding didn’t back down from the embarrassment. He responded with his own Instagram video, thanking Cam’ron for the free Miami trip and asking him to book him again, saying “Keep booking, I’ma keep spendin’ it.”

The actor also promised another diss record in response to the prank, describing his upcoming musical retaliation as “diabolical.”

The Bigger Picture

This elaborate prank highlights how modern celebrity feuds play out across social media platforms. The incident occurred in Miami, where Cam’ron filmed the entire fake movie shoot before revealing the hoax publicly. The rapper’s ability to document and share the prank adds a new dimension to traditional celebrity conflicts.

Industry Impact

The ongoing situation shows no signs of slowing down, with both parties continuing to escalate their responses. Cam’ron’s “Book My Opps” concept could potentially influence how other celebrities handle their disputes, introducing financial elements to traditional beef scenarios.
