50 Cent and Lil’ Kim heat up the stage for the first-ever live performance of their 2003 collaboration “Magic Stick” at the WinterBeatz Festival in Perth, Australia, on Wednesday. The Queen Bee was far from shy, grinding up against a grinning 50, who made sexual gestures with the microphone. Watch them get freaky Down Under.

Chelsea Handler (Getty)Last year, it was rumored that E! talk show host and comedienne Chelsea Handler was getting intimate with rapper 50 Cent after the pair were spotted getting cozy...well...all over Chelsea's Twitter.

Handler initially denied any romance, tweeting, "Everyone, calm down. I met with Mr. Cent about a potential project. There's nothing to report yet, I'll let you know if there is." And then she tweeted a picture of them cuddling in bed (see above) shortly thereafter.

Now that Chelsea is romantically involved with hotelier Andre Balazs (who was rumored to be dating Courtney Love, at one point), she's come clean about her relationship with 50, admitting to CNN's Piers Morgan (via People), "We dated, very casually."

Handler had nothing but sweet things to say of the rapper, despite the fact that he tried a little too hard to impress her: "I don't really like when men buy me ridiculous gifts, especially when I don't know them well." She joked, "I can buy my own gifts. I really don't like gifts from rappers in general, since I'm not a hooker."

Nicole Scherzinger is determined to win. After attempting to launch her solo career in 2007, the lead Pussycat Doll gives it another go with the Jim Jonsin-produced “Right There,” the first U.S. single from her debut Killer Love. Filmed in the “concrete urban paradise” of downtown Los Angeles, the smokin’ hot babe steams up the screen with 50 Cent in the Paul Hunter-directed video.

“50 has been a friend of mine. He did his thing on the song. I thought I was cool until 50 showed up and he was a little cooler,” Nicole told MTV’s “The Seven.” “He brought the energy and the spirit. He’s 50 for a reason. He’s the real deal.”

Feast your eyes on the alluring visuals below.

50 Cent got hands on with Nicole Scherzinger on set of the video for “Right There,” the lead single from her U.S. debut Killer Love. Directed by Paul Hunter, the clip sees the labelmates getting down to the upbeat tune in the “concrete urban paradise” of downtown Los Angeles, with the former Pussycat Doll sharing her love for her co-star in between takes.

“50 has been a friend of mine. He did his thing on the song. I thought I was cool until 50 showed up and he was a little cooler,” laughed Nicole. “He brought the energy and the spirit. He’s 50 for a reason. He’s the real deal. So just being around him ups the game and it was a lot of fun.”

After watching 50 Cent’s unintentionally hilarious Things Fall Apart trailer, the rapper’s next movie looks like Citizen Kane by comparison. Fiddy stars in diamond heist flick Setup, co-starring Ryan Phillippe, Bruce Willis and a bunch of generic action-thriller baddies. Between his rap career, his snow-shoveling business and his pro-bono work offending people on Twitter, where does 50 Cent find time to be in all these movies? Setup trailer below.

50 Cent sends “All His Love” on his third freestyle release over the past few days. Boasting a snappy beat, the track sees the G-Unit leader spitting controversial rhymes about how he treats his ladies.

“If we goin’ out, we goin’ dutch, pay for your dinner bitch!/ Look bitch, this is my life, I’m on some different shit/ Every different day, I wake up to play with a different bitch,” he raps, while boasting, “Westside! This that shit right here. Feel like it’s supposed to be on that Detox.”

Surrender to Curtis’ romantic stylings below.

50 Cent went all Method actor while filming the Mario Van Peebles drama Things Fall Apart, dropping 54 lbs. to play a football player battling cancer. We finally get to see if all the effort was worth it, as the movie’s “unofficial” trailer (whatever that means) has hit the net. Watch it below.



Does calling it “unofficial” mean that a stranger stole all the footage and cut together their own preview? Or is this just a first cut that was never meant to be seen by the public? Either way, this looks just about as Oscar-worthy as that indie movie starring Nicki Minaj.

We applaud Fiddy for trying to stretch his range and attempt such a dramatic story, but based on what we see in this trailer, we don’t think this will transform him to a veritable movie star, or even an indie darling.

50 Cent claimed that Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine were angry that he released his Sleek by 50 Cent wireless headphones, but the Doc knows nothing about it. While leaving BOA Steakhouse in West Hollywood on Tuesday night, a TMZ cameraman asked the super-producer if there was any truth to 50’s assertion, giving a genuinely surprised response.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about. I never heard of his headphones,” the West Coast veteran said before driving off in his white Bentley.

Earlier this week, 50 took to Twitter to share that Dr. Dre and Interscope boss Jimmy Iovine were upset with him for directly competing with Dre’s Beats by Dr. Dre line. “Jimmy iovine and dre mad at me cause I’m doing sleek by 50,” he wrote. “I guess I’m not going to be on detox Lol.”

He also hinted that he could be making a diss record aimed at the two. “Would you faint if I told you I just wrote a verse about jimmy and dre. Oh my god this is hard. This shit gonna kill,” he said. “Em gonna have a heart attack when he hear this sh*t damn lol.”

50 Cent (Bauer Griffin)Sounds like 50 Cent could use an upgrade on his home security system. The rapper's home was broken into this morning. 

Police were called to the 52-room mansion in Connecticut after security guards saw a suspicious car in the driveway and officers promptly arrested two men, after finding one of them drinking wine inside a closet.

According to gossip website TMZ, the two suspects entered through an unlocked door and were in possession of marijuana when police arrived to the home.

Both men were arrested and have been held on $50,000 bond.

While the "Candy Shop" hitmaker is the owner of a huge 52-bedroom mansion, earlier this year he revealed he doesn't think his $400 million fortune is enough.

The rapper said his troubled upbringing made him believe that having a lot of money would solve all his problems, and even though he no longer thinks that is the case, he always strives to do better.

He said: "$400 million? I'm not sure how much I have, but that sounds great. I don't really think it'll ever be enough. I used to equate success with my finances because I didn't have anything, and when you don't have any money, it seems money is the answer to all your problems. Then you get money, and you've got a whole new set of problems."

50 Cent joins Jeremih in the Colin Tilley-directed video for “Down on Me,” the latest single from his sophomore album All About You. While YouTube star Keenan Cahill helped turned the song into a viral sensation, the 15-year-old does not appear in the official clip. Instead the collaborators keep it grown and sexy, performing in front of a myriad of fluorescent lights in a warehouse, while scantily-clad women dance behind them. Put it down below.

Though 50 Cent and Chelsea Handler are yet to confirm rumors that they’re dating, a picture says it all. The comedienne tweeted a photo of the two cuddled up in the sheets, sarcastically poking fun at speculation that they’re an item. “I don’t know why anyone thinks I would ever date a rapper,” joked the blonde bombshell.

50 later posted his own pic of Chelsea kissing him, writing, “Why people keep saying I got jungle fever. I ain’t never even kissed a white women. Lol.”

Handler previously denied that the two were dating after pictures surfaced of them getting cozy in a New Orleans nightclub in October. “I think @chelseahandler is beautiful I wanta see what that dog lookin at on her page,” tweeted Fifty after they were snapped by the paps.

The “Chelsea Lately” host also riffed on the rumors while chatting with teen superstar Taylor Swift, who shared her love for the Queens native. “I’m surprised that you warm up to 50 Cent ’cause I have warmed up to 50 Cent,” quipped Handler.

“Don’t f**k with my little ni**a,” warns 50 Cent in the video for “Mean Mug,” his hard-hitting collaboration with Soulja Boy from The DeAndre Way, due November 30. The 20-year-old rapper and his mentor rule the underground in the dark Colin Tilley-directed clip. Check out the terrible twosome mug for the cameras below.

An injured 50 Cent makes a visit to Chelsea Handler's talkshow "Chelsea Lately", whom he has recently been romantically linked to. The rapper couldn't keep off his Blackberry phone as he left the TV studio, wearing a baseball cap and a full on denim outfit. 50 Cent recently took part in a hilarious spook video (which was later aired on "Chelsea Lately") featured 15-year-old internet singing sensation Keenan Cahill.

50 Cent was seen at the Los Angeles premiere of the movie “Red” wearing a Dolce & Gabbana Silk and Herringbone vest (seen below in dark brown, $370) along with a pair of Fendi shoes ($525) from the 2010 collection. The shoes feature brown leather and canvas with Fendi print, and a black rubber sole. What do you think about 50′s overall look?

50 Cent and Chelsea Handler were photographed together at a jazz club in New Orleans over the weekend, sparking rumors that the two were dating, but it looks like the joke’s on us. The comedienne is letting inquiring minds know that she and 50 are not an item—at least yet.


“Everyone, calm down. I met with mr. Cent about a potential project,” tweeted the host of E!’s “Chelsea Lately.” “There’s nothing to report yet, ill let you know if there is.”

When TMZ caught up with 50 at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills earlier this week, the usually outspoken rapper remained mum, only smiling when asked by a cameraman whether he was dating the comedienne.

The pair flirted with each other when he appeared on her talk show in December 2009. “You’re very, very cute, you know this, right?” Chelsea told him, to which he replied, “Thank you, do you have a boyfriend? This would be great, like I deserve you.”

Chelsea Handler was spotted at a New Orleans bar last night with a very famous eligible man at her table: 50 Cent. TMZ reports that these two got pretty cozy while at the Blue Nile jazz bar, which is clearly fueling the romance rumors.

Chelsea Handler (Photo Agency)Just a few weeks ago Chelsea coyly announced that she'd split with Dave Salmoni, so she's definitely on the market -- and maybe these two are just perfect, boisterous match! Either that, or she's racking the rapper's brain for a new book. Hmm.

Fiddy has taken to his provocative Twitter page to get some attention from the ladies, so we know he's single and ready to mingle. We'll have to wait and see what happens next! Of course, no official word on this alleged new couple just yet.

50 Cent (Getty Images)50 Cent has told all his Twitter followers that he's looking for a good woman online. The rapper wrote: “A yal be on twitter meeting each other. Then yal be f***ing this s**t is crazy. I wanta find me a bad b**ch on twitter. Lol.”

But apparently plus-sized girls need not apply. 50 raised eyebrows recently when he revealed that he bedded a “fat” woman and isn't sure if he'd do it again.

He tweeted: “So look I just finished with a fat b**ch for the first time I wanta tell you don't knock it till you try it. it was bad.

“Hurt my back though I should a never tried to pick her up. Lol.”

50 has previously admitted he is wary about dating because he doesn’t trust the opposite sex.
The rap star, who is worth an estimated $440 million, revealed he is paranoid about getting involved in relationships because he thinks women are only interested in his money.

He said: "It's difficult for me to trust a woman. Men are attracted to beautiful women. Women are attracted to men who offer security -- financial security. And if you have money and you're famous, women find that sexy."

Looks like Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo will be making more of an impact with their rap hits as a result of the recent union between G-Unit Records and EMI Label Services.


G-Unit, formerly part of the Interscope Records family, recently joined forces with the music company. The new deal will exclusively distribute and promote 50 Cent’s label under the EMI umbrella. Lloyd Banks’ third effort, H.F.M. 2 (Hunger for More 2), due November 23, will be the first release to reap the benefits of the new deal. Yayo’s forthcoming untitled sophomore album will follow in early 2011.

Lloyd Banks spoke about the merger, namely the employees’ gusto surrounding his new album. “It’s refreshing to see the EMI staff excited about my project; they have the passion and energy I haven’t seen in a while,” he said in a statement.

With the additional push EMI has to offer, Mike Harris, the label’s vice president/general manager, feels the artists on the roster will continue cementing their name in the hip-hop landscape. “We are delighted to join forces with G-Unit and artists who are truly marquee names in hip-hop,” he stated. “G-Unit is a huge force. Lloyd Banks knows how to deliver a lyrical punch and his single has already generated huge anticipation for the album. Tony Yayo is a totally unique talent, and ‘Pass the Patron’ already has the hip-hop world buzzing about his album coming out next year.”
