‘I Don’t Know Why He Filmed That:’ 50 Cent Talks Diddy Documentary on ‘Kimmel’

Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, the multi-talented musician, actor, producer, and businessman, stopped by ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live to discuss his life, new endeavors, and the recent Diddy documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The four-part Netflix special earned three Emmy nominations and won in the category for outstanding picture editing for a nonfiction program. In an interview with Kimmel, 50 Cent humorously noted that he had won Emmys while people were bothering him.

The rap mogul also expressed his excitement about the documentary's behind-the-scenes footage, remarking, "When you get a RICO charge, you forget to pay the guy who had the camera." He recounted seeing the rushes on an iPad while Diddy was incarcerated, stating, "I’m sure (he) thought it was the best documentary he ever saw in his life." In the 2000s, 50 Cent enjoyed four No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including the nine-week reign of "In Da Club."

Since then, 50 Cent has continued to make waves in the entertainment industry. He teased that he's working on a documentary series about himself, reflected on the late DMX, shared details about his new film, Paramount Pictures' Street Fighter, and admitted to feeling a little intimidated by Robert De Niro. Street Fighter, based on Capcom's video game, premiered in theaters on October 16. Watch 50 Cent's candid interview with Jimmy Kimmel below.
