( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) ( BAND PLAYING )
>> Stephen: NICE TO MEET YOU.
HAPPY TO BE HERE.
>> Stephen: HAPPY TO HAVE YOU.
HELP ME OUT WITH SOMETHING HERE.
I HOPE YOU WILL BE PATIENT WITH ME BECAUSE, OBVIOUSLY, I'M NOT
COOL ON ALL.
SO I CAN'T CALL YOU FITTY.
WOULDN'T BE PROPER, BUT IF I CALL YOU 50 CENT, I'M GOING TO
SEEM WAY TOO SQUARE.
SO I'M THINKING MAYBE "HALF-DOLLAR JACKSON."
>> THAT'S JUST FOR ME AND YOU, STEPHEN.
>> Stephen: MR. HALF-DOLLAR JACKSON OVER THERE.
>> SHARON OSBOURNE GAVE ME THAT NICKNAME, FITTY CENT.
>> Stephen: SHE GAVE YOU FITY?
AID, IT'S 50-CENT.
SHE SAID FITY CENT, AN IT'S BEEN THAT EVER SINCE.
>> Stephen: YOUR NAME IS THAT BECAUSE OF AN ENGLISH ACCENT?
>> FITTY CENT.
>> Stephen: WOW, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
>> SO THEY SAY, ARE YOU FITTY CENT?
I'M, LIKE, ARE YOU SERIOUS?
>> Stephen: SO MOVIE, "DEN OF THIEVES," YOU'RE CURTIS IN THIS,
RIGHT?
>> YEAH, I PUT CURTIS "50 CENT" JACKSON, SO PEOPLE WOULDN'T
EXPECT WHAT THEY EXPECT FROM ME AS A MUSICAL ARTIST.
>> Stephen: IS THERE DIFFERENCE IN THE PERSONALITY
BETWEEN CURTIS JACKSON AND YOUR PERSONA AS 50 CENT?
>> WELL, CURTIS JACKSON IS MY GRANDMOTHER'S BABY.
THAT'S WHEN I CLEAN UP.
>> Stephen: CAN YOU SHOW ME?
HERE'S CURTIS.
>> AND HERE'S 50.

THAT'S AN ARTIST.
YOU'RE AN ARTIST WITH THAT FACE OF YOURS.
THAT'S REALLY GOOD.
LISTEN, IT'S THE FIRST TIME MEETING YOU, BUT, LIKE, THERE IS
SO MUCH TO KNOW ABOUT YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE EVERYWHERE.

FIRST ALBUM, GET RICH AND DIE TRYING, SOLD 1 MILLION COPIES,
FIVE STUDIO ALBUMS, GOT A GRAMMY.
YOU'RE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER AND STAR OF THE TV SERIES POWER.
E.P. AND HOST OF COMEDY SERIES AND INVESTED IN VITAMIN WATER TO
CASPER MATTRESSES.

TYCOON.

HEY, THEY'RE ADVERTISING A LOT OF PODCASTS, CASPER MATTRESS.
TRUMP IS ALSO FROM QUEENS.

QUEENS.
IS HE LIKE YOUR FRIENDS YOU KNEW IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD?
>> I DIDN'T KNOW -- SO MANY NEW THINGS HAVE COME OUT ABOUT
DONALD SINCE HE'S BEEN THE PRESIDENT OF AMERICA.
>> Stephen: WE'VE LEARNED A LOT.
>> TO BE HONEST, I THINK IT'S BY ACCIDENT.
WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS BY ACCIDENT, YOU'RE NOT PREPARED
FOR IT.
I THINK HE WAS TRYING TO GET A GREAT RENEGOTIATION FOR "THE
APPRENTICE."
( AUDIENCE REACTS ) >> Stephen: SO HE JUST WANTED
TO GO BACK TO NBC AND SAY -- >> HE WANTED TO LOSE THE
PRESIDENCY, HE DIDN'T WANT THE JOB.

YEAH, MAN.

RECOGNIZE THE THINGS WHY HE'S DOING THEM.
>> Stephen: RECOGNIZE WHAT?
RECENTLY HE WAS SAYING SOMETHING LIKE I GOT A BIGGER --
YOU KNOW, I GOT A BIGGER -- >> Stephen: BUTTON.
-- YEAH, NUCLEAR BUTTON.
THAT'S, LIKE, STUFF YOU DO IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
LIKE, IF YOU KNOW SOMEBODY'S GOT A PROBLEM WITH YOU, YOU WILL BE
LIKE, YOU WANT A PROBLEM?
NO PROBLEM.
HE'S BLUFFING.
THAT'S HOW YOU BLUFF.
BUT YOU DON'T BLUFF WITH THE ENTIRE WORLD!
WHAT THE (BLEEP)!

WE DON'T WANT THAT TO TAKE PLACE!
BUT HE'S, LIKE, I GOT A BIGGER NUCLEAR BUTTON THAN YOU!
THAT'S LIKE SAYING I GOT A BIGGER JOHNSON THAN YOURS.

CAN WE SAY JOHNSON?
SURE, WHY NOT.
>> THAT WAS THE CLEANEST VERSION OF IT I HAD.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: THANK YOU.
YOUR GRANDMOTHER WOULD BE PROUD.

SPEAKING OF BEEF, WHO'S BEEF ARE YOU IN, IN THIS?
>> I DIDN'T KNOW WHICH GERARD BUTLER WE WERE GOING TO GET, THE
GERARD BUTLER FROM "300" WHERE HE'S ALL THE WAY TOPPED UP, OR
THE SOFT AND CUDDLY GERARD BUTLER, LIKE THAT GUY, YOU KNOW.
>> Stephen: THE ROMCOM.
