50 Cent has a new
show on M TV , where
business-savvy contes­
tants compete for a shot
at fame and a huge cash
prize. But the rapper says
he's not following the path
o f that other famous real­
ity show hosted by Donald
Trump.
"Im m ed ia tely when
you say a reality show
that has a business spin
to it, they think The A p­
prentice.' and the d iffe r­
ence is these people
don't actually want to
work for me." the 32-
50 Cent
year-old said. "They have their own busi­
ness ideas that they created and they're
competing for $ 100,000
in seed money."
"50 Cent: The Money
and the Power" features
14 contestants compet­
ing to show that they are
the best entrepreneurs.
50 Cent w ill chop down
the number o f contes­
tants until the winner is
crowned.
People w ill be seeinga
lot o f 50 Cent in the next
few months. Besides the
M TV project, he is re­
leasing his latest album,
"Before I Self Destruct,”
on Dec. 9. The CD in­
cludes an accompanying feature-length film
with the same title.
