50 Cent's Plans for Tyson's House
Apparently it's 50 Cent week here at Luxist. We try to look away but 50 Cent like Donald Trump or Paris Hilton has tastes that we can't help but comment on. We've talked about his desire for the Dodge Charger and his love of Padilla cigars and now we have this report on his plans to rehab Mike Tyson's home. 50 Cent bought the Farmington, Connecticut home for a bargain basement price of $4 million but plans to update the 18 bedroom house from Tyson's lavish gold everywhere taste. His solution? Enlisting Louis Vuitton to splash the LV logo everywhere.

Drove by this HUGE mansion this weekend. It's no secret where it is in Farmington; just ask a local. The end of the street is marked by someone's big "50" on the road. It's an unassuming road, but the house is far from it.
I was disappointed that the entrance was covered in construction fencing and I couldn't get a clear view of the property. Opulence to the T. Wonder who it will go to when Mr. Cent is falling back down the charts.
It's a shame when someone's ugly lyrics, foul mouth, and lack of respect for women and authority get them all this attention and wealth. Just think of all the kids of this country that admire him and purchase his music. They don't see anything wrong with it. Hurrah our future leaders!
