50 Cent drove his fans crazy when this year’s U.S. election came round, but he have topped his list of crazy moments with the recent claims that Donald Trump attempted to bribe him for his endorsement for $1 million.
With contradictory statements occupying social media, we just don’t know what to expect from 50 Cent, with statements on Twitter saying ‘Vote for Trump’ and tweets reading “F* Donald Trump, I never liked him.”
With 50 being the controversial figure he is, we don’t know what to believe, but let’s just say that nothing will surprise us from these two figures.

Programmes like X Factor and Malta’s Got Talent have their fair share of controversy, no less in Maltese television, as outraged Yada ‘N’ Heels fans start a petition following their replacement due to COVID-19 issues.

Do you think their removal was unjust? Or is it just the way things go? Let us know!
The petition can be found here.
