50 Cent is turning down Donald Trump.
The 49-year-old rapper said he turned down a $3 million offer to perform at the former President of the United States’ rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday (October 27) in New York City.

Envy mentioned a report that 50 was asked to perform his hit “Many Men” at the Republican National Convention over the summer.
“They offered $3 million,” 50 said, presumably referring to the Trump rally, but confirming that he was asked about both.
“I didn’t even go far… I didn’t talk to them about that kinda stuff. I’m afraid about politics,” he said. “You understand? I do not like no part about them.”
“It’s because when you do get involved in it, no matter how you feel, some one passionately disagrees with you. That’s the formula for the confusion that sent Kanye to Japan. He said something about both of those things — and now he can only go to Japan,” he went on.
At the same time, one actor spoke out about his support for Trump amid Hollywood backlash.
