50 Cent is to launch his own range of condoms.
The rapper is to put his name to a new line of rubber sheaths and has
revealed he is to donate a percentage of the profits to a HIV charity.
50, who recently announced that he has co-written three novels, said: “The
kids become immune when you constantly beat them over the head, 'Read a
book, read a book.’ We have to be a little more creative about it. It's the
same with safe sex. As opposed to being part of a safe sex campaign, I'm
going to make condoms and donate a part of the proceeds to HIV awareness."
The three books that 50, real name Curtis Jackson, has penned are entitled
'Death Before Dishonour', 'Baby Brother' and 'The Ski Mask Way' and are
based on the experiences of him and his G-Unit band.
Reports are rife that 'The Ski Mask Way' is to be made into a film starring
50.
He has previously appeared in the semi-autobiographical 'Get Rich or Die
Tryin’’ and has landed a role opposite screen legend Robert De Niro in 'New
Orleans' which is due out in 2008.
This is very smart of 50 and I applaud him for his efforts to try and reduce HIV, STDs and unwanted pregnancies. I think a lot of people will buy and use his condoms simply because his name is attached to them. Good move!

Lol Janice i might have to correct you on one thing you wrote:
Instead of having smart people buy them, they will successfully steal them in the automotives department at wal-mart.
