50 Cent Ordered to Pay Punitive Damages


Last week rapper 50 Cent was ordered to pay Rick Ross' baby mama, Lastonia Leviston, $5 million in compensatory damages for posting her amateur sex tape online during the height of his rap beef with nemeses Rick Ross [click here if you missed that].

Despite filing for bankruptcy and testifying that his wealthy lifestyle is actually an illusion 50 has been ordered to pay millions in punitive damages as well…

On Friday a jury awarded Lastonia Leviston $2 million in punitive damages bringing the total amount of her settlement to $7 million.

Outside court Fifty's lawyers said they plan to file motions to have the settlement reduced.
