50 Cent's mansion goes up in smoke
Last Updated: 30 May 2008 10:24 PM

A "suspicious" fire has burned down a multimillion-dollar home owned by rapper 50 Cent. Arson squad investigators were on the scene of the blaze which injured six people.

A lawyer for the Grammy-nominated rapper's former girlfriend, Shaniqua Tompkins, said the woman lived in the Long Island house with two of her children.

A fire service spokesman said all six people were taken to hospital where they are in a stable condition after suffering smoke inhalation.

Earlier this year, Tompkins filed a lawsuit against 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, claiming he had promised her the £1.2 million house more than a decade ago.

A rap 'artist' turned criminal? I'm shocked.

For the record - my street name is One Dolla.

And what was she going to do with it? The up-keep on a place like that has got to cost a pretty penny.

Never heard of Saint Shaniqua? You need to visit the religious wars threads more often!

I’d expect that one of the male descendants would be named Fitty Jr.

I remember first hearing the name on SNL’s Weekend Update with Kevin Nealon, back in the early 1990’s. Ellen Cleghorne was Queen Shaniqua. It was funny, but I thought the name was made up myself.

You can take some people out of the projects, but you can't take the projects out of them.
