Organizers were willing to pay $9 million for 50 Cent and Eminem to perform together at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, but Eminem declined the offer, according to 50 Cent.
Rapper Eminem, 50, turned down the offer, the 47-year-old rapper claimed while making an appearance on Big Boy's Neighborhood on Real 92.3.
The If I Can't rapper said that officials in Qatar were hoping to hire the pair after their involvement in the lauded Super Bowl halftime show last year in Los Angeles, which also featured Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, and Anderson .Paak.
'Because of the Super Bowl, I got an inquiry about World Cup and they had a budget of $9 million,' said the rap artist, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, adding that he 'would've taken' $1 million and the remaining $8 million 'would have been for' Eminem.
The Candy Shop artist said that he tried to negotiate the appearance with Eminem's camp to no avail: 'They're like, "He's not gonna do it."'
50 Cent said, 'If you would do a one-off show, maybe you would do the biggest live sporting event in the world.'
Recall, the competition held in Qatar drew a number of controversies, including the country's human rights records, discrimination against women and the LGBTQ community, and the deaths of migrant workers who built the stadiums in the competitions were held in.
