 From Shutting Down His Massive Unit

BHR Hollywood Reports..........50 Cent does not want to suffer in the dark ... which is why he's asking a bankruptcy judge to keep the utility company from shutting down his massive unit.

The entertainer, real name Curtis Jackson III, ususally shells out $72,000 in monthly expenses at his Connecticut estate.

But after filing for bankruptcy in July, the 40-year-old rapper must now get court permission to pay all bills, no matter how basic.

On July 24, the jury ordered 50 Cent to pay an additional $2 million in punitive damages after his bankruptcy bid.

The rapper was also embroiled in a $18 million lawsuit over his headphones businesses, and says his costly legal woes have forced him to file for Chapter 11.

The musician has sold more than $22 million albums, and Forbes once estimated the entertainer and businessman's net worth at $150 million.

However, in bankruptcy paperwork 50 Cent reported $32 million in debts - including $2,000 he owed to his grandfather.

And this is interesting ... between gas and electric, 50 drops an average of $10,597 a month. Remember, he has a 50,000 square foot mansion in Connecticut which he bought from Mike Tyson.
