50 Cent Sues For $1 Million Over Internet Ad

    50 Cent is seeking a minimum of $1 million damages from the makers of an internet advert which used his likeness.

The rapper is suing Traffix Inc. for their �Shoot The Rapper� ad, which carried the message, "shoot the Rapper and you will WIN $5,000 or 5 RINGTONES GUARANTEED�.

The lawsuit filed in New York State Court says the advertisement wasn�t just "completely unauthorized" but also "vile, tasteless and despicable" and "quite literally calls for violence against" him.

Some might say that�s a little rich coming from someone who made a film of his life called �Get Rich Or Die Tryin'� and launched his own blood splattered computer game, but there we go.
