A woman who says 50 Cent used her private sex tape to fuel the feud between himself and rival rapper Rick Ross is taking him to court. Lastonia Leviston, mother of Ross' daughter, accuses 50 Cent of editing himself into the video—in his wig-wearing "Pimpin' Curly" persona—as a narrator and posting it on his website, AP reports. She is seeking damages for unauthorized use of her name and image as well as for emotional distress.
