50 Cent Settles Out Of Court With Taco Bell

50 Cent has settled his legal battle with fast food chain Taco Bell after accusing the company of using his name in an advertising campaign without his permission.

The In Da Club hit-maker, real name Curtis Jackson, filed suit against company bosses in July, 2008, alleging the promo was "diluting the value of his good name" by using it in conjunction with their 79-89-99 Cent Why Pay More campaign. He claimed the ad campaign suggested he was endorsing the franchise. Taco Bell executives even offered to make a $10,000 donation to a charity of 50 Cent’s choice if he agreed to change his name for one day.

In an open letter published a month before 50 Cent took Taco Bell to court, bosses stipulated he must visit one of the chain’s restaurants and rap his order at the drive-thru window - using a new moniker : 79 Cent, 89 Cent or 99 Cent.

Nevertheless, 50 Cent was not amused by the marketing ploy and took legal action against Taco Bell, seeking $1 million in damages.

However, the dispute has now been settled out of court, according to Bloomberg.

Results of the financial deal remain confidential, but the rapper’s lawyer, Peter Raymond, declared on Monday that "both parties are satisfied" with the outcome.

I bought this shoe, because after trying it out, it was worth the price tag. I generally try to avoid buying Chinese made products, but since my work requires a great deal of indoor walking, I needed this shoe. It performs great, it does what it was designed to do, BUT the fit & finish is pretty bad. I have have owned many pairs of mbt shoes, and this is the first one that has costed SO much lasted so little. I’ve owned them since 05/09 now 8 months later they literally look like I’ve had them for years..... My point is that, they DON’T hold up well. I am satisfied with the feel, but the quality of the materials used, just isn’t there.... My other work shoe pair is a dressy loafer which I’ve had for nearly 5 years (the MBT was supposed to replace it), made in Brazil... after 5 years they look better than my MBT. Ultimately, I like how the shoe feels, but I’m not sure that I want to drop that much money once a year .
