Fiddy: But I'm Big Overseas!
Rap star 50 Cent said he would retire if he didn't outsell Kanye West. But he doesn't plan on retiring, even though he did lose to Kanye -- at least in the United States. Don't be so geocentric, people!
"[My album] was No. 1 internationally the week it came out," he told Gatecrasher. "It was the No. 1 European album!" Yeah, that's every rap star's dream -- to be big in Belgium.
But technically, Fiddy is right; he did have the #1 album and single on the Billboard European Hot 100. His family must be proud.
McConaughey Out of the RV, Into an Actual Home

The shirtless wonder will now call a 3,500 square foot, $10 million dollar house his new home, according to Hot Property. The four-bedroom, three bath house sits on more than an acre of land and was built in 1949.
Considering Matt doesn't seem to own a shirt, there isn't much need for closet space.
