?Get rich or go into debt tryin?.? Rapper Curtis James Jackson III, also known as 50 Cent, filed for bankruptcy on Monday. He filed just days after he was ordered to pay $5 million to a woman whose sex tape he released online with himself added in as a character named "Pimpin' Curly." A jury on Friday ordered the multiplatinum-selling Get Rich or Die Tryin? rapper to pay the damages to the lawsuit?s plaintiff, Lastonia Leviston. But according to the Wall Street Journal, the 40-year-old rapper filed for Chapter 11 protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Hartford, Connecticut, on Monday. The move will likely affect collection efforts.
