Miami Adult Entertainment: 50 Cent’s Big Sex Tape Mess
As for the legal matter, filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, the offended party, Lastonia Leviston, claims the rapper used her name and likeness without permission by publshing the video on his website, thus causing her severe emotional distress after it, um, spread virally online.
Leviston alleges that she and her beau, whose face is blurred out in the Fiddy version, “videotaped themselves engaging in sexually explicit activities” in June 2008, per the New York Daily News.
Although the dude purportedly promised to destroy the tape, he instead “transferred or sold” it to 50 Cent, according to the complaint. Fiddy then turned it into a comedy routine that also mocked rival rapper Rick Ross (for example, Fiddy’s commentary notes the initials “R.R.” tattooed on Leviston’s chest, and indicates they refer to Ross).
In a later radio interview, Leviston also accused the hip-hopster, real name Curtis Jackson, of labeling her a “call girl,” causing her further embarrassment.
