50 Cent has received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and it was quite a ceremony, with appearances from Eminem and Dr Dre and, unexpectedly, a diss at noughties rock band Evanescence.
Curtis Jackson, attended the ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard on Thursday (30 January), where large crowds gathered to watch the milestone moment in Fiddyβs career. Looking especially dapper in a two-piece grey suit and red polo neck jumper, 50 Cent was joined by close friend and Power actress Lala Anthony as he accepted the honour. But he was particularly touched that his old pal Eminem, 47, made the effort to support him and deliver a speech that was, frankly, beautiful.
βOf all the things I donβt remember about 2002, I have a very clear memory of the first time I met 50,β Eminem told the audience who cheered along. βOne of the first things I noticed about 50 was his presence because of it just kind of felt like, heβs gonna be a starβ¦ It just seemed like he was the whole package.β Eminem clearly had a crystal ball at the time as Fiddy went on to become one of the biggest rap stars and music moguls.

The Godzilla rapper continued: βDre and I knew that if something worked on us, it was gonna work on the rest of the world and Iβm glad we trusted our instinctsβ¦ βI just wanna say man, Iβm here today because this is not only a business partner to me, itβs one of the best friends Iβve ever known in the world.β Referring to 50βs love of a good argument, Em then joked: βI would say that itβs much more fun to be his friend than it is to be his enemy because this guy is f*****g relentless. And he wonβt stop. βAnd the same way that heβs relentless in his battles, heβs also relentless in his business. βHeβs an artist, an entrepreneur, an actor, a director, a producerβ¦ he can juggle, heβs great at Scrabble. He pretty much does it all.β Weβre always up for a game of Scrabble, guys.

On more of a personal note, Eminem said: βAnd heβs also helped me through a lot of hard times in my own life and heβs always been there when I needed him. So 50, congrats on your star, man.β 50 Cent then rocked up to the stage to deliver his own speech and started by crediting Eminem and Dr Dre for propelling his career.
