Bugs and Bette Midller, opened up the Curtis Jackson Community Garden yesterday in Queens:

The two joined forces Monday to celebrate the opening of “The Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson Community Garden” in Queens, New York. “I called and nagged him,” Midler said, describing how she got 50 Cent involved with the garden. “His G-Unity Foundation gives a million dollars away every year in grants to non profits all over the city … They’re just brilliant.” The garden (the most recent endeavor for Midler’s New York Restoration Project) is located in Jamaica, Queens, where the rapper grew up. It will mainly serve as a living classroom for neighborhood school children to learn about how food grows.“I wish I had this to come to when I was growing up around here,” he said. “The opportunity to create this garden for the youth and the community is a great one.” “Besides,” he noted, “When Bette calls you don’t say ‘no.’ Not if you want your reputation to stay the way it is.”

Look at Bugsy trying to clean up his image. At least he trying to set a good example even if it is nothing more than an obvious tactical move.

More pictures of the good deed below.

    thank you, 50 and Bette. And this isn’t white folks news. this is community news. i don’t think this is an act. i think the thug sh-t is an act.

    i’d rather 50 do this instead of fake beefs. this is how you ‘spread the wealth’. some kids are going to be saved because of this project.

    Why belittle the brother when he’s actually doing something positive. You can hate on rappers all you want, but when it comes to giving back, they out-donate all the athletes and actors. I may have to buy the album now.

    “At least he trying to set a good example even if it is nothing more than an obvious tactical move”

    why does it have to be a tactical move? Look the man is putting his money to good use, now sure when you have money you have to donate some of it to charity, as to not get taxed on that money (just write it off) but who cares!

    Nothing wrong with cleaning up your image and that nucca needs a bath like a mutha!

  • Aunt Viv waited in line for 2 hours to vote and would do it again!

    This is a great idea. I’m proud of Fitty! I like his suit.
