RAPPER turned rap mogul and actor 50 Cent has announced that he is getting married.

The 35-year-old 50 Cent, real name Curtis James Jackson III, revealed on Twitter that he proposed to his girlfriend, who was last known to be R’n’B singer Ciara, 23.

“Good morning I was so high after the show last night. I got engaged. I love me so, sept 6 I’m getting married.”

50 Cent, who had a son Marquise with then girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins in 1997 which is still before the courts, met Ciara when he worked on her single Can’t Leave Them Alone, in 2007.

Last week, 50 Cent insisted that he was giving up Twitter to concentrate on completing his new album.
