50 Cent gets MTV’s help in showcasing Connecticut home

Rapper 50 Cent has chosen an unusual platform for showcasing his luxurious Farmington, Connecticut mansion, which is currently on the market for a cool $18.5 million (that’s 37 million 50-cents).

You ready for it?

“Cribs.”

That’s right, the popular MTV show, which gives fans a sneak peek at how some of their favorite artists and Hollywood stars kick back and relax, had a “special edition” episode on Friday night to show off Fiddy’s opulent mansion.

The 48,000-square-foot home, which Mr. Cent purchased from the ex-wife of Mike Tyson for $4.1 million, has been sitting on the market for a while now, despite featuring 19 bedrooms and lush landscaping.

No word as to whether the episode of “Cribs” drummed up enough interest in the house, but we’d be willing to guess, with or without MTV’s help, this house can practically sell itself.

And that could get 50 Cent partying like it’s his birthday.
