Rapper 50 CENT was forced to leave a shopping mall in Scottsdale, Arizona last week after security guards objected to members of his entourage carrying weapons through the building.

The In Da Club hitmaker was in Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall on Thursday for an appearance at Paris Hilton's pre-Super Bowl bash that night.

But he had to cut short his shopping trip when mall security realised some of 50's crew were in possession of guns, according to the Scottsdale Police.

The hip-hop star and his entourage happily obliged and left the mall without incident.
