The rapper and actor known as 50 Cent has filed for federal bankruptcy protection, days after a jury ordered him to pay $5 million in an invasion-of-privacy lawsuit.

Curtis Jackson III, who owns a home in Farmington, Conn., filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in U.S. District Court in Hartford on Monday.

The filing lists both his assets and liabilities as between $10 million and $50 million.

It comes after a New York jury on Friday ordered Jackson to pay $5 million to a woman who said he acquired a video she made with her boyfriend, added himself as a crude commentator and posted it online without her permission.

Jackson's attorneys and his publicist did not immediately respond to phone and email requests seeking comment on Monday.

He's so full of shit and I hope the Feds get him for bankruptcy fraud. If he blatantly moved his assets before filing he's super stupid in today's climate.

F him. Despite what went down with him and Floyd, it was messed up to call him out for being illiterate.

Also, he and his crew shot at my step-brother out in Queens years ago so I'll never be able to support him.

What did your cousin do to get shot at?

Step-bro (mom's longtime boyfriend's son). This was before 50 was a known rapper when he was just a local street punk out in Jamaica/Laurelton. Gang stuff. The guy didn't get shot 9 times for nothing.
