50 Cent
We are not going to get into who and why (or how many times he was actually shot), but on May 24, 2000, someone wanted to serve Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson with way more than the garden-variety fade. Fif looked death in the face, and gave it the “50 Cent laugh.” Sitting in a an idle vehicle in front of his grandmother’s South Jamaica, Queens home, Boo Boo was fired on and allegedly hit with nine rounds, including bullets to the face, hip, chest legs and hand. Jackson spent 13 days in the hospital. While recuperating, he signed a publishing deal with Columbia records.
