50 Cent says he turned down $500K to attend Trump inauguration (Is this true or fake news?)

50 Cent was on The Late Late Show Tuesday and while sitting next to Massachusetts Senator and Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren, he revealed how he could have made more money thanks to President Donald Trump.
The rapper, actor, executive producer and all-around media mogul told host James Corden that Trump offered him “half a million dollars” just to attend his inauguration in January 2017.
“I didn’t do it because I didn’t know if I could fix the damage,” 50 Cent said.
50 Cent told a similar story to Hot 97 back in 2017, only then the $500,000 offer was for an event leading up to the election in 2016, right around the time 50 Cent was going through bankruptcy issues. But in both instances, his reasons for not accepting the major payday haven’t changed.

Perhaps in a few years his story will be Trump offering to pay him 500 million just for his autograph.
To: Cubs Fan
Was anybody really famous at the inauguration at all that was paid?

Why would Trump care this person was there, to pay them half a million to just show up?
I mean really. Press obviously just believes whatever comes out of Trump haters mouths these days.

Maybe he turned down 500K to stay away, because he was a man of principle and you couldn’t have paid him to attend? /S

Not at all. I know he’s lying. As far as I know, Trump didn’t have many celebrities there at the inauguration.

Before Trump was a politician, he was very popular with Hollywood.

Sitting next to Elizabeth Warren...
Maybe that means he was offered $488.28.
If it’s too late for math, 1/1024 of $500k is ???
