50 Cent is one rich mofo

How much did you make last year? I bet it was less than the $75k 50 Cent made in about 30 seconds last week at a club in London. From the Daily Mirror:

50 Cent raked in £50,000 ($75k) for uttering one word at a launch party on Thursday.

And the word in question? "Hey."

Fiddy - who is in the UK on his Before I Self Destruct tour - was wooed by the owners of flash new Liverpool club Bamboo to attend its nopening night. And the extravagance didn't stop at his super pay npacket - he also had a budget-busting rider to match. Once he'd been ferried by a Hummer Heaven stretch limo to the city's first seven-star club, his entourage had magnums of Cristal and Dom Perignon champagne on tap - served up by two models.

Our spy says: "It was the most blinging night ever.

"People thought 50 Cent might perform a track or two, given the massive fee, but he just greeted the crowd with a 'Hey' and got back to his two personally requested ladies, who were lavishing booze on him."

When you consider the fact that 50 Cent made about $100 million by selling his stake in Vitamin Water, it's probably safe to assume that he used the money from his appearance fee as toilet paper. Although it certainly sounds like being a famous rapper is glamorous and exclusive, there's actually a name for the type of person that gets to travel around in a luxury car and spend money without a care in the world: Senator.
