Court orders 50 Cent to pay Rick Ross’ baby mama $5 million

50cent2013The Manhattan Supreme Court has ordered 50 Cent to pay Lavonia Leviston, Rick Ross’ baby mama, $5 million in damages for uploading her sex tape to the internet in 2009.

According to reports, $2.5 million of the sum is for “violating her civil rights for using her image without her permission,” and the other $2.5 million is for “intentional infliction of emotional distress.” Leviston’s lawyer originally sought $20 million total in damages.

50 was absent during the court proceedings, not attending to testify nor hear the verdict. He has denied publishing the tape online, though it undeniably features 50 Cent in his “Pimpin’ Curly” outfit providing commentary from start to finish.
