50 Cent's $2 Million Night

We've seen in the past that 50 Cent has lavish tastes, whether it is his Connecticut mansion, his Manhattan office or his chromed-out Lamborghini. Now the rapper is set to spend a whole lot of money in one night just to honor his commitment to appear at two award shows on the same night. It has been reported that he will spend $2 million on a six-mile journey through London to perform at both the Vodafone Live Music Awards in West London and the MOBO Awards at the O2 Arena in Greenwich. For the events is said to have booked three helicopters, a fleet of SUVs and a team of ex-special forces so that he can get to the MOBO awards in time and have a little room to spare for relaxation.

UPDATE: Looks like 50 Cent has pulled out of the MOBO awards and is canceling a bunch of tour dates in Europe. Is he following through on his promise to retire if Kanye West bested him in the charts or just looking to s save some cash?

[Thanks, Zachary!]
