Fitty stole show: suit

Two men are suing 50 Cent for copyright infringement claiming that the cable show “Power” was ripped off from a script the duo wrote and pitched to the rapper three years prior to the program’s premiere.

In a lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court against Fitty — real name Curtis Jackson — as well as cable network Starz and its parent company, CBS, R. Byron Hord and Curtis Scoon claim that they wrote a script for a pilot episode of a show they called “Dangerous” in 2009 about a black drug dealer and his efforts to “go legit.”

A CBS spokesman said, “We were just made aware of this filing and we are looking into this matter. It is too premature for comment at this time.”

Reps for Starz and 50 Cent did not immediately return requests for comment.
