He's obviously trying to hide the omelet that got splattered on his face after boasting that if Kanye West's cd did better than his he'd retire...from starPulse (http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2007/09/16/50_cent_to_spend_2_million_on_six_mile_j):
Rapper 50 Cent is set to spend over $2 million on a six-mile journey through London to honor separate performances at two award shows on the same night, according to reports.
The Candy Shop star is performing at the Vodafone Live Music Awards in West London next Wednesday, but is also booked for the MOBO Awards at the O2 Arena in Greenwich, south-east London afterwards.
The star - real name Curtis Jackson - is reported to have booked three helicopters, a fleet of SUVs and a team of ex-special forces to ensure he and his entourage have a smooth journey.
A source tells British newspaper The Mirror, "He is aware that it's extravagant but he wants to get there in good time and chill out before his performance."
A spokesman for the star adds, "He'll do whatever it takes to get to the MOBOs in ample time."
It didn't take long for other sites like FARK Forum (http://forums.fark.com/cgi/fark/comments.pl?IDLink=3073319) to jump all over and have a field day with this one. Some of the comments from the Forum:
"That headline looked like the start of a math problem.
'50 Cent is spending $2 million to go on a six-mile trip from one award show to another. If his brother, Two-Bit, left the other award show at the same time, how much money would he spend?' "
"50 Cent is spending $2 million to go on a six-mile trip from one award show to another. If he commits a drive by every half mile, using two 20-round clips at each shooting, sells half of his 20 grams of coke to his biatches, and does the rest, how much is it a case of "The White Man" keeping us down?"
"even worse, after Kanye blasted Britney's appearance and said she was 'unimportant to music' (true), guess who spoke up for her? lol"
It's a good thing both Rock Band and Guitar Hero focus on playing music instead of adding a rep sidequest...would be detrimental having your character spend lots of money after a bad performance in an attempt to save face.

To Harvest or not to Harvest, that is the question;
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The pipes and bullets of outrageous Splicers,
Or to take arms against a horde of Big Daddies,
And by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep...
