50 sues over DVD footage

Rapper 50 Cent has filed a lawsuit against three video production companies to stop them selling an interview he gave for free as part of a DVD - because they failed to make a promised charity donation in return.

The hip-hop star, real name Curtis Jackson, was interviewed by Czar Entertainment Inc boss Jimmy Rosemond about Kelvin Martin, a New York criminal who also went by the moniker 50 Cent.
