Rapper 50 Cent has claimed he turned down US$3 million ($5 million) to perform at a Donald Trump rally and also said he rejected an offer to appear at this year’s Republican National Convention. The 49-year-old, whose real name is Curtis Jackson , said he rejected an offer to appear at Madison Square Garden on Sunday as he is “afraid of politics”. He also added that he “didn’t even talk to them” about appearing at the convention as he was not interested, while speaking on IHeartRadio’s The Breakfast Club .
He told the show: “I got a call, they wanted me for Sunday, and they offered me three million dollars for this past Sunday”. The In Da Club singer was then asked whether he was also asked to perform at the Republican National Convention ..
