50 Cent Challenges Jay-Z
I wonder if 50 Cent is sad because nobody cares what he’s up to and he wants attention. He already complained about how Chace Crawford was prettier than him last week and now the rapper is bashing Jay-Z. 50 said “Jay-Z’s not smart enough to be afraid of me. We’re big rivals. If it ever came to an actual altercation he’d know what it’s like to be afraid.” I guess he didn’t realize just how stupid he sounded when he said that. As if Jay-Z would back off from that challenge. Maybe 50 is jealous. That’s the only explanation that can be given.

50 Cent is No Longer the Ladies Man
Feb 5, 2010 50 Cent
Chace Crawford apparently got way more female attention on the set of his upcoming movie ‘Twelve’ much to the dismay of his co-star 50 Cent. The rapper turned actor explains “I made a fool of myself the first day of shooting. I got to my trailer and I saw this huge crowd of girls screaming. I stopped and was kind of having a moment. Then I turned around, and Chace was behind me, and that’s who they were freaking out for. I remember thinking, ‘What kind of bull—– is this?’” Sorry 50. I guess all those girls wanted the younger and hotter of the two stars of the movie.

50 Cent – Tiger Woods should have been more gangster
Dec 15, 2009 50 Cent, Tiger Woods
Rapper 50 Cent says Tiger Woods could have kept his mistresses a secret if he’d been more ‘gangster’.
The hip-hop star offered the golfer advice on the women in his life as he appeared with U.S. host George Lopez.
He said: “Tiger… It’s interesting. Fear factor – you need a little fear there, a woman need to feel that maybe he’s going to snap, ‘So I ain’t going to say that.’ With Tiger, there’s no fear there.
“They be like, “He left a message on my phone, he say he love me. He was going to leave her.”
“And he says, “Hey, it’s Tiger, baby. I was trying to get my freak on a little later – if you could call me back.”
“Damn – he’s been tried and convicted when his wife hears that.”
Fiddy added that he has been working on a brand of condoms and is now considering adding a tiger stripe to the product.
He said: “Thirteen women and no condoms – you’re a gambling man, ain’t you, Tiger? Rappers use condoms often. Golfers apparently don’t use condoms.”

50 Cent wants to work with Susan Boyle
Dec 7, 2009 50 Cent, Susan Boyle
Since she is rising to the top of the charts very fast, it seems 50 Cent figured he might snag onto Susan Boyle so that he may also gain a few bonus popularity points. This is what 50 Cent said about his latest idea; “She’s got an amazing voice, and together we’d get everyone dancing. I’m always looking to do something new and she’s cool, so I’ll ask somebody to let her know. I got to get her on a track, for real. We’d make a hit.” The diamond trade is not going so hot anymore, is it? Well, surely 50 Cent will get what he’s looking for out of this collaboration.

50 Cent is not impressed with Jay-Z
It seems that after a failed collaboration attempt, 50 Cent felt the need to blow off a bit of steam and decided to share the fact that he doesn’t really care that much for Jay-Z. This is what 50 Cent said about his fellow rapper: “What I did was Freeway went out and found his publishing deal, and we started the album, and Jay did ‘Big Spender’ and I did ‘Take You to the Top’, and when it came time to put the record out, he didn’t want to shoot his video, so I’m like, ‘Why am I going to shoot mine? I’m not shooting it. It’s on your label. He has a king complex, he thinks he’s fucking Jesus, you know what I mean? This J-Hova shit.” Aw, isn’t that cute? Jay-Z didn’t think 50 Cent’s diamonds were shiny enough and now 50 Cent is all upset about it.

50 Cent’s large pockets
Dec 1, 2009 50 Cent
It seems this particular rapper really wears those baggy clothes for a good reason. 50 Cent is not one to travel with lose change and always carries around twenty-five thousand dollars cash. 50 Cent himself admits to this: “I always carry $25,000, in cash, just in case something happens… I don’t know whether I’ll have to buy something or not. I like to have cash on me because it feels like I have money.” What in the world could happen that would require 50 Cent to have that much money on him? A light bribe, an underpaid bodyguard or what? 50 Cent’s bodyguards better be very well paid and well trained because after this latest news from him, you can bet some people might look at him differently when they see him… especially if alone.

50 Cent wants to star in romantic comedy
Nov 9, 2009 50 Cent
Rapper 50 Cent wants to star in a romantic comedy.
The hip-hop artist says he is considering trading his tough-guy image for a softer persona – by appearing in a feature film as a Hugh Grant-style role.
He said: “It would be interesting for people to see that side of me,” he says. “It would be a challenge, but I’ve seen artists like Ice Cube [who went from rap to acting] make the transition and challenge themselves.”
The In Da Club musician, real name Curtis Jackson, said: “It’s easier if a woman accepts you as a manly man.
“But a softer moment works, too, because then she’ll suddenly see you as a romantic.”

50 Cent and a Destiny’s Child
Oct 26, 2009 50 Cent, Destiny’s Child, Kelly Rowland, Music Artists, Music Videos
Sources are saying that while 50 Cent was filming his new music video for ‘Baby By Me’, the rapper was getting a little too friendly with former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland. It’s being said that things got pretty steamy on the set of the video and that it may have led to a bit of a fling. I don’t think either of them could do better than the other anyway. At the very least, they haven’t stooped to anything lower. It shows that the entertainers still have some sort of dignity left in them – however little it may be.

Dr. Forest and Mr. Whitaker
Oct 8, 2009 50 Cent
Forest Whitaker is currently in the midst of negotiations to star in a modern adaptation of the classic “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”. And he will be staring alongside rapper 50 Cent in this one… Forest Whitaker calls this an “on screen father-son relationship”: “We’re still figuring out what we’re going to do, if I am going to be doing that or not. If I end up doing it, I would be playing Jekyll and he would be playing Hyde. It’s a father-son kind of relationship. It’s also an interesting script because we are dealing with similar things. Jekyll has a lot of issues and problems personally. Hidden passions, hidden perversions – and it is acted out by 50.” Dude, make up your mind: are you playing Jekyll or Hyde? How is 50 cent ever going to be able to work with such an undecided man?

50 Cent Gets Sued
Aug 7, 2009 50 Cent, Concert Gig
50 Cent and his reps have pissed off a German promotional company. And now, they are all facing a lawsuit. The German company, Major Movez, claims that the William Morris Endeavor agency charged them $125,000 to negotiate a concert as a good faith gesture. If the concert were not to happen, the money would be returned to them, with no deductions. However, the concert did not take place and the money wasn’t returned. Now, the option that’s left is to go to court and have all the issues aired out. I wonder if this will turn out into an all out war like the rapper’s recent court battle with his ex-girlfriend.

50 Cent’s miscalculated error
Jun 4, 2009 50 Cent
The rapper recently sued an engineering firm called BHV Integrated Services due to the fact that they might have under-evaluated the costs of repairing a mansion he bought from Mike Tyson’s former wife. 50 Cent said that the company evaluated the total repairs at about five hundred thousand dollars, but he spent three million on repairs. In turn, the guys from BHV defended themselves by saying that the rapper spent that money on extravagantly expensive upgrades. Now who are we going to believe: the rapper 50 Cent who seems to be trying to subtly amortize his expenses with Mike Tyson’s former mansion, or the BHV guys?

50 Cent Gives Diddy a Compliment
50 Cent recently had an interview in the new issue of King magazine where he gave Diddy a backhanded compliment. The rapper said “Puffy has the best model for staying relevant, because [he does it] without a song. He’s been able to maintain an interest and stay in a space to executive produce television and film projects, and stay relevant to hip-hop culture. What was the last record that made you feel like, ‘Oh, my God, Puffy is on fire’? You don’t need it. That’s what makes his business model exciting to me. There are only three of us to look at: Jay, [me] and Puff. [We have] three totally different situations. We’ve just been a part of hip-hop culture. That’s the similarity. I still think they’ll be relevant. I just think they’re like the fire hydrant: You can’t move those guys out of the street. I think they’ll [still] be the guys you need to connect with [to] get a shot.”
50 Cent Waiting on Eminem
I was beginning to think that the people who care about 50 Cent’s career have become imaginary but it seems it’s really the rapper’s imagination that has gotten ahead of him. 50 just announced that he won’t be releasing his new album ‘Before I Self Destruct’ until after Eminem drops his tentatively titled upcoming album ‘Relapse’. It’s nice considering that Eminem was pretty much responsible for launching his career. One big problem though. Eminem’s ‘Relapse’ still has no release date so it might be a while before we get to hear 50’s album. That may not be such a bad thing.

Eminem is Number 1
Feb 16, 2009 50 Cent, Billboard Chart, Dr. Dre, Eminem
Even is the single ‘Crack a Bottle’ by the rapping powerhouse trio of Eminem, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent is somewhat of a dud considering the hits they have among them, the song somehow managed to set a new Billboard record for first week download sales. The boring comeback track from Eminem and company is the new #1 song in America as it stole the top spot from the previous opening week record holders, TI and Rihanna. Am I missing something with that song? I just don’t get how it got the top spot. Maybe people just got curious is Eminem is still the same douche bag he was years ago. I bet people will stop caring in a few days.

50 Cent Almost Tops Oprah
Oprah Winfrey always comes out on top of the list of Top Earning African American Stars by Forbes. But do you know who came in second this year? 50 Cent! The list was compiled from the amount of money that celebrities made between June 2007 to June 2008. According to Forbes, the rapper brought it around $150 million during that year. I doubt any money was made off of his music career though. His investment in Vitamin Water, his clothing line and video games must have brought in the cash. 50 has also recently launched a film company and is planning to launch his own line of dietary supplements.
50 Cents says ‘Nas’ career is over
According to the always arrogant rapper 50 Cents his rival ‘Nas’ is no longer a chart competitor and feels that the veteran singer’s career is all but over. He feels that ‘Nas’ is no longer a threat and if he is to be believed then his rivals’ career is “finished”.
Speaking to the XXL magazine he says, “Nas is cold as ice. Nas is the block of ice that sunk the Titanic… I didn’t even hear his record. I didn’t even hear what you talking about… I really don’t want to talk about Nas. I think he’s at one of those points to where his career’s finished, to be honest.”
I think 50 Cents is starting to feel the heat from other singers and therefore he is trying to target some of his lower radar rivals in a bid to make his presence felt. Frankly the music this chap makes is way too crap to even consider it as music.
But as we all know he is acclaimed for his business mindedness and therefore he is more often than not able to come with unique plans to sell his music albums.
50 Cent’s reality TV show shelved by MTV
Jan 2, 2009 50 Cent, MTV, TV Show
Rapper 50 Cent’s own reality TV show hosted by MTV called 50 Cent: The Money And The Power has been shelved by MTV after continuously receiving poor ratings.
This show is about rapper 50 Cents attempt to find the next hip-hop mogul from a group of fourteen wannabes, where the winner would be given prize money of $100,000. The sum will feature as an investment from 50 Cent and he will help the winner of the show to start their own business venture.
But from the time it debuted on TV on November 6th, 2008 the show completely failed to kick off and viewers weren’t forthcoming either and almost after one & half months after going on air the network has now decided to scrap the flailing show.
Yeah I somewhat agree with this, I too tried to get into it, mainly because it was aired on my B’Day, but it really didn’t stick. 50 did not leave anything to the others’ and as usual played the show as if he was some kinda mafia boss. 50, you’re not the really tough guy; you’re a snitch and poor dumb yoyo. You are a follower..didnt mommy teach you to be a leader?

50 Cent changes his appearance to dapper
Dec 18, 2008 50 Cent
50 Cent used to wear sliver and platinum chains till recently but 50 Cent now has kind of (temporarily or permanently it is not known) shifted his style from thug to dapper lately. Gone are the heavy chains and rugged looks and now we have tailored suits.
That was the crap news cos’ it really doesn’t matter what 50 Cent wears or how he looks to millions what we would rather cheer is if he would reduce the price of is music and we all deserve it. If the Fed can cut interest rates to their lowest since may be 1954 then man we got to have everything at cheap prices.
That especially we some of us still can bear to listen to a piece of crap that 50 Cent manages to call music and the music charts kind of award his albums some kind of rating. You know guys this is something that really surprises me about this insane world. People do not have clothes and food but animals as pets of some rich people live life in a 5 star hotel.
Hey not that I’m jealous, pleazzzzz or something just vouching for those less fortunate.
50 Cent Gets Locked Out
Dec 15, 2008 50 Cent
Sometimes things just have the way of being ironic. 50 Cent tried to not get spotted by the paparazzi but the opposite happened when someone locked the keys inside the Rolls Royce that he drove to his hotel in London. Thankfully, he had an escape artist in his security on hand. The rapper’s security team then proceeded to try and get the door opened with a wire coat hanger. Things got worse after that as a parking attendant gave them a ticket for leaving the car outside the hotel. 50 is currently in London to star in a new film called ‘Dead Man Running’ which is set to be released next year.

50 Cent locked out of his Rolls Royce
Rapper 50 Cent was in a terrible situation when he found out the he had locked himself out of his Rolls Royce, the incident took place on Friday last week when the rapper was on a visit to London where he was filming a new movie with actress Brenda Blethyn.
And this got worse thereon as his car was ticketed by a parking attendant. The only thing that saved him for the day that a member of his entourage was able to break into the car using a wire coat hanger.
Nothing to funny here as such things could happen to any one of us and who said just cause your a “big star” that human things like locking yourself out your own car and getting tickets wasn’t gonna happen.
But it would have been great fun if the hanger did not work and they had to bust his pretty Rolls Royce window out so that could go along with his ticket.
