50 Cent released a sex tape last year - the only problem is that it wasn't his to release. This is certainly a new "twist" on the old "let's get naked for fame" game! Details, via Snarkerati:

[50 Cent hasn't done himself any favors when it comes to releasing a sex tape last year. The only problem? It wasn't his sex tape that he released to the masses. He did insert himself into it, however. In the form of his alter ego, Curly, Fiddy put the tape on his website last year.

The woman featured in the tape, Lastonia Leviston, is royally miffed, too. She has filed a lawsuit in New York on Wednesday accusing the rapper of posted the film that she made in 2008 on his official website.

She claims that 50 Cent blurred out her partner's face and then altered the video to make it look like he was in the footage as Curly.

She is suing for the unauthorized use of her name and image, as well as the emotional distress caused by the video's release.]

Hint to 50: the footage isn't usually what you insert yourself into when making a sex tape. How many starlets will now come forward with similar news? "That wasn't me - someone cut and pasted my face into that video!" Call it the 50 Cent sex tape defense. Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian are not eligible. That ship has sailed, ladies!

A Hilarious New Twist!
