Did 50 Cent snort coke backstage?

A Croatian video has just hit the internet which appears to show rapper 50 Cent snorting cocaine. In the video, a Croatian reporter is ushered into 50’s dressing room by what appears to be some of the rapper’s entourage. As soon as he steps foot into the room and says “Good evening,” we see a group of men sitting around a table bending their heads forward. One man is standing over them, and he turns and uses his hand to indicate that the reporter should leave the room. The reporter quickly turns around and exits, though the camera aims into the room for a few seconds longer. The man who told the reporter to leave returns to the table and crouches down. Within about ten seconds, 50 Cent comes to the door and greets the reporter. Here’s the video – the pivotal moment is about 1:30 into it.

I will be the first to admit that I don’t know the difference between what you snort, smoke, inject, or insert into your ear. I have no idea what a person who’s just snorted cocaine should sound, look, or act like. But other people seem to think something fishy was afoot. Central Station noted:

Speculation is rife that rapper 50 Cent is on the chizarles after a European video surfaces on YouTube. While the video doesn’t clearly identify 50 Cent hitting the stuff on the table, the entourage quickly ushered the TV crew out of the green room before any incriminating evidence could be filmed. The video shows, however, someone bending over a table and doing something with something. That’s the best we can allege right now.

Prayer circle? I’m going with a prayer circle. You know how performers are always thanking God and/or Jesus whenever they win an award? Don’t tell me they do that only when they win a Grammy. I’m sure they’re meditating on Leviticus as we speak. Though I just want to point out – 50, if you’re reading this – you’re a spokesman for Vitamin Water. You have your own drink with them – Formula 50. You even went on “The View” promoting its health benefits. And you’re making $100 million for the endorsement. I know Coca-Cola supposedly originally had cocaine in it. And they do own Vitamin Water. But I think it’s a stretch to assume that they’re going to want you promoting their drinks if people are afraid that you’re possibly putting something illicit into that oddly-yellow Energy Water. No one’s going to believe you got all that energy just from the b vitamins and guarana. Just a thought.
