50 Cent and Taco Bell
50 Cent decided to settle a lawsuit with Taco Bell back in November 2009. This lawsuit was filed because Taco Bell had sent a state to news stations around the country suggesting 50 Cent to change his name to ’79 Cent,’ ’89 Cent’ or ’99 Cent’ so he would promote the low prices off their menu.
Taco Bell didn’t tell 50 Cent about the promotion, and they settled out of court before he could claim the full $4 million he was initially asking for.
