Bankruptcy Docs Show 50 Cent Will Pay $800+K To Son, 2
According to the Jasmine- brand, 50 Cent (real name Curtis Jackson) has filed new financial docs in his bank- ruptcy which reveal the rapper owes a total of $832K in child support to the mother for the next 16 years for his 2-year-old son, Sire Jackson.
The rapper/business mogul recently filed for bankruptcy, days after a New York jury awarded Rick Ross’ baby mama $5 million dollars in the legal battle she filed over her leaked sex tape. According to his Chapter 11 petition, the rapper claimed his assets were

between 10-50 million, but his liabilities were in the same range.
Trai Byers who plays Andre and Grace Gealey who plays Anika recently became en- gaged.
Joe Jackson Is Out Of The Hospital
Joe Jackson, the father of the late Michael Jackson and patriarch of the musical family, has been discharged from the Brazilian hospital where he was treated after he had a stroke in late July while visiting Brazil.
The 87-year-old Jackson was discharged Monday. The hospital gave no further de- tails.
Jackson is resting in a Sao Paulo apartment and is ex- pected to return to the United States on Saturday. His daugh- ter Janet and his son Jer- maine are with him.
Jackson was in Brazil to celebrate his 87th birthday. He

was diagnosed with a stroke associated with cardiac ar- rhythmia and hospitalized on July 26.
Trai Byers (Andre) and Grace Gealey (Anika) don’t play very likable people on Em- pire. That doesn’t mean they aren’t good for each other in real life, though.
The castmates are getting ready to become husband and wife.
Byers and Gealey have be- come officially engaged, ac- cording to US Weekly. The news comes after the two just spent some time together din- ing in Chicago.
So Luscious’ son is marrying his fiancée. Sounds very much like an Empire plotline.
Robert Downey Jr. Is Highest-Paid Actor Again
Robert Downey Jr., for the third year in a row, is the world's highest-paid actor ($80 million), but that's not the real news in Forbes' annual list of leading men with envi- able bank balances.
What's different this year is that for the first time three multimillionaire Indian actors little known among American movie audiences are included in an international top 10.
And Jackie Chan of China ($50 million) is No. 2.
It's yet another sign of the growing globalization of ... well, everything, but especially the film business. In an in- creasingly internationalized industry, China and India can be players, each with more than 1 billion people, many of them mad for movies made in their own countries.
Thus, Bollywood superstars
Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar are No. 7 ($33.5 mil- lion), No. 8 ($33.5 million) and No. 9 ($32.5 million) in the top 10 this year.
They rank ahead of Mark Wahlberg at No. 10 ($32 mil- lion), Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson at No. 11 ($31.5 mil- lion) and Johnny Depp at No. 12 ($30 million), for in- stance.
Third year in a row is the world's highest-paid actor ($80 million), but that's not the real news in Forbes' an- nual list of leading men with enviable bank balances.
Above them are: Vin Diesel at No. 3 ($47 million), Bradley Cooper at No. 4 ($41.5 million), Adam San- dler at No. 5 ($41 million) and Tom Cruise at No. 6 ($40 million).
Downey remains the Iron Man among the highly com- pensated thanks to that fran- chise: Avengers: Age of Ultron earned $240 million gross in China alone. But America, long accustomed to bestriding the world as the Colossus of the movies, has to make room on the list for other nationali- ties and languages.
Forbes forgot to add Denzel Washngton to their list.
Two people were killed and several others wounded after a shooting at Drake’s OVO Fest after-party in Toronto.
Just after 3 a.m. Tuesday, someone began shooting in- side Muzik nightclub, where Drake was hosting the official after-party. According to the website, one person was fatally shot inside the club, and at least one gunman fired more shots outside.
A man and woman died; at least three others are hospital- ized. It’s unclear if Drake was in the club when the shooting erupted.
It’s not the first time this has

happened at Muzik. A man was shot at last year’s OVO Fest after-party.
