Eight million dollars, or more than 4 billion FCFA, is the sum that was offered to an American rapper, but the latter declined it. This rapper is none other than Eminem. And the reason he gave was his honor.
Indeed, Eminem is this rapper who commands admiration not only thanks to his talent, but also thanks to his character.
At a time when young rappers are excited in front of large sums of money, he remains the same.
Rapper 50 Cent, who was close to Eminem, revealed that the latter declined an offer of more than 4 billion FCFA. He had been approached for several films, but his response was negative.
A reaction that greatly surprised 50 Cent. He was indignant at this indifference of his friend towards money.
This, while specifying that the rare times that Eminem has acted in a film, it is following a lot of pressure that he put on him.
« Eminem’s contempt for money always makes me sick. Eminem has turned down $8 million for movie roles like a hundred times.
He only participated in 15 films and that’s because I put pressure on him. Eminem is always paid well for every movie role but he always refuses the money.
There were times when Hollywood would have offered me $2 million to have Eminem in a movie. But he would still have refused. There are projects that were willing to pay Eminem more than $8 million, but he refused.
I look at Eminem and I’m like, ‘Did you just turn down $8 million?’ And he would say, ‘Yeah, it’s nothing. I want to spend time with my daughter, Hailey.’ Like he wasn’t even upset.
And I’m like ‘What the hell is this?‘“, confided 50 Cent.
