- 50 Cent says he regrets hanging upside down during the Super Bowl LVI halftime show.
- "I think that was a mistake," he said.
50 Cent says that he regrets the decision to hang upside down during his performance at the Super Bowl halftime show in 2022.
The rapper famously hung upside down in the music video for his breakthrough hit "In Da Club" in 2003.
He recreated the stunt as he took to the stage with Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and Snoop Dogg at Super Bowl LVI.
"I think that was a mistake," the 47-year-old star told USA Today in an interview published on Wednesday.
"Everybody else walked in regular, the songs still went over and they got the trophy, too," he added. "They all won an Emmy. They got the same thing I got and I had to put myself upside down."
50 is currently celebrating the 20th anniversary of his debut album, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'."
Last week, he announced a global tour called "The Final Lap" in honor of the milestone.
"It's gonna be a whole new show," he told USA Today of the tour, which is set to feature Busta Rhymes and Jeremih as supporting acts.
"Sometimes, out of habit, you go to certain records," he said. "People love other things on it, so I wanna make sure I touch those records before I don't do those anymore."
Earlier this year, Insider spoke with numerous producers, engineers, and photographers who helped make "Get Rich or Die Tryin'."
Among them was Sha Money XL, the former president of 50's record label, G-Unit Records, who played a large role in the production of the album.
"Get Rich or Die Tryin'" was recorded at Sha Money's home studio, and he also produced three songs: "High All the Time, "Poor Lil Rich," and "Wanksta."
Sha said that the album was "hip-hop in its rawest form."
"A lot of rappers, they just come out with a song. And you either like the song or you don't," he said. "50 not only came out with songs, he came out with a story that people could relate with — not getting shot, but the world being against him and him still being fearless and ready to challenge everyone."
