The most embarrassing moments in hip hop history
From 50 Cent on QVC to Jay-Z's guyliner days...
50 Cent: In a moment of money-grabbing madness 50 Cent appeared on TV shopping channel QVC in 2012 to help sell his brand of 'SMS' headphones. Afterwards he bragged about making nearly $200,000 from the plug - but he'll never be able to buy back what little dignity he had left.

This week 50 Cent appeared on the shopping channel QVC to shamelessly plug his 'SMS by 50' headphone brand.
Let's face it he was in it for the money. He made $177,000 in nine minutes.
But then again he's already a millionaire, what he probably should have been more worried about was hammering the final nail in the coffin of whatever scrap of coolness he may have had left.
So Gigwise thought we would take a look at some more of the rap world's most uncool moments.
From Subway adverts, to bright green Ugg boots, to Justin Bieber collaborations - we've scoured the history of hip-hop to find the cringe-worthy moments that the stars would rather forget.
So sit back and take a look at the likes of Snoop Dogg, Dr Dre, Jay-Z, and Lil Wayne make complete prats of themselves... enjoy!
