Rapper 50 Cent spends $5,000 a month on gardening and $3,000 a month on clothes, new court documents have revealed.
Papers filed to a court in Connecticut revealed how the star spends his monthly income of $184,969, around £118,000, most of which comes from royalties and interest paid out on investments.
The rapper’s monthly expenses are $108,000, around £69,500, including $1,000 on grooming as well as $9,000 on security, the New York Daily News newspaper reports.
Hip-hop heavyweight Fiddy declared himself bankrupt in July, three days after he was ordered to pay a woman $5 million.
A jury determined the rapper had intentionally acquired an X-rated video she made with her boyfriend, added himself as a crude commentator and posted it online without her permission to embarrass his rap rival Rick Ross, who fathered a child with the woman.
The court filing also stated the Candy Shop star pays $72,000 a month towards his house, $14,200 of which goes on the utilities such as electricity and gas as well as over $30,000 on the mortgage, tax and insurance for the property.
The star also has to pay out over $14,000 on support for his two children – 17-year-old Marquise, and Sire, two – as well as for his grandfather.

Fiddy, who is expected to attend a bankruptcy court today, previously addressed the situation, telling hosts on chat show The Talk: “I’m fine. It’s just we going through little legal issues. I got some trained professionals to help me.”
He also told E! News: “I’m taking the precautions that any other good business person would take in this situation.
“You know when you’re successful and stuff, you become a target. I don’t wanna be a bulls eye.”
The hitmaker, real name is Curtis Jackson, added: “I don’t want anybody to pick me as the guy that they just come to with astronomical claims and go through all that.”
