50 Cent has been ordered to pay £3.2 million ($5 million) to the ex-girlfriend of Rick Ross for leaking a homemade sex tape featuring the woman.
The video has been online for over five years and features footage of Rick Ross' ex-girlfriend, Lastonia Leviston, and her then-partner Maurice Murray. Leviston is also the mother of one of Ross' children.
The tape is edited with clips of 50 Cent wearing a wig. In a 2010 proceeding, Leviston claimed that Fiddy - real name Curtis Jackson - admitted to leaking the video during an interview and repeatedly referred to her as a 'call girl'.
Speaking about the ordeal, Leviston said: "This was something done to me. I didn't have a choice. I would never, ever do this to myself".
There have been accusations that Jackson released the tape in an effort to mock Ross as a part of their ongoing rivalry.
Cent's legal associates say they are "disappointed in the verdict but very appreciate of the service of the jury and the court".
