One day you're wearing ice, the next day you're eating ice chips!

50 cent was admitted to the hospital Wednesday to undergo surgery, but that didn't stop the rapper from posting pics of himself to Twitter looking a little under the weather. He might be a ganster rapper, but we got a chance to see Mr. Cent's softer side, dressed in a hospital gown surrounded by stuffed animals.

The Get Rich Or Die Tryin' star didn't give any clues as to why he required an emergency operation, but he made sure to reiterate his illness would not effect the release of his upcoming EP. "I'm in the hospital but my gansta grillz LOST TAPE is done so it will be out on time," he posted to the micro-blogging site.

Not to worry, loyal fans! Hip hop artist DJ Drama, who collaborates with 50 on the new record, assured concerned well-wishers his pal isn't suffering from anything serious, but rather a nasty stomach virus.

We think our favorite lyricist is going to be up in the club in no time!

Twitter

File this one under friendships we didn't see coming.

50 Cent is the king of odd collabs (he was rumored to be dating comedian Chelsea Handler and was in talks to do a duet with Bette Midler last year), and now he can add one more to his list - Goldie Hawn!

"I had lunch with Goldie Hawn she is [a] complete sweetheart," 50 Tweeted.

We can't imagine what the two had to talk about, but it looks like they had a great time!

Nicole Scherzinger is proving to the world that her voice and incredible body are here to stay!

The Pussycat Dolls lead singer has teamed up with 50 Cent for the single "Right There." Sounds like Nic has another hit on her hands.

In the catchy track, 50 Cent raps the following: “I like it when you’re freaky, I’m freaky / I’ll explore your body completely!” Loves it!

Perhaps if she officially lands the X Factor judging spot, she'll perform this new track live on the show.

See one of our favorite photos of Ms. Scherzinger ... after the jump.

Yes, we spotted 50 Cent in Beverly Hills on Friday holding the latest issue of Vibe Magazine... and he's on the cover! Nothing wrong with loving yourself.

In the issue, 50 addressed alleged girlfriend Chelsea Handler and her sex appeal:

"Chelsea is confident. I think confidence is the sexiest thing about a person. She's the kind of person that if you're blessed with the opportunity to hang out with her, you'll enjoy it. I'm not sure you'll look at her and actually want to jump over the table and f*** her, but you might. You would leave after talking with her feeling that she is a cool person."

Yesterday we caught 50 Cent after a rather intense workout in Venice, and the buff rapper took a few minutes to chat with fans before hopping into his car and heading home.

When he's not pumping iron, working on new music or posting controversial tweets, 50 is busy preparing for his upcoming film roles, and there's plenty of them! He's already wrapped production on Setup and Vengeance, and later this year he's set to begin shooting Lives of the Saints and Freelancers, which also stars Robert De Niro. Can't wait to see more of him on the big screen!

50 Cent is not one of the many celebrities using Twitter to help raise money for the victims of the Japan earthquake and tsunami.

In fact, he's using the micro-blogging site to make jokes about the disaster!

Friday, he tweeted:

"Look this is very serious people I had to evacuate all my hoe's from LA,Hawaii and Japan. I had to do it. Lol."

But he clearly got a lot of crap for the joke, because minutes later, 50 tweeted, "Nah this is nuts but what can anyone do about it. Let's pray for anyone who has lost someone."

But the serious moment from the man with 4 million followers was short-lived. Because later, he returned to cracking wise, writing, "Man they made a movie about all this 2012 now you think that was a lucky guess."

50 did have a response to the critics who thought his tweets were in poor taste. "Some of my tweets are ignorant I do it for shock value," he tweeted. "Hate it or love it. I'm cool either way."

Unlike 50, several stars have rallied to raise money for the victims of the devastating disaster. Lady Gaga designed a red-and-white wristband inscribed with the words "We pray for Japan" and an image of the singer's monster paw gesture, which she's selling on her website for $5, with all proceeds going to disaster relief. Charlie Sheen is donating $1 out of every ticket sold from his "Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour. Even the Kardashians got into the giving spirit, using their Twitter accounts to encourage millions of followers to donate to Red Cross.

We knew celebs were posting random Twitter ads to make some sweet side cash, but we never figured they'd be worth millions of bucks!

Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, worked his Twitter account Monday to help launch the shares of a no-name penny stock company called H&H Imports, which he's also invested some major cash in.

Cent Tweeted:

"You can double your money right now. Just get what you can afford."

Who could resist that opportunity? It definitely worked out for the rapper; H&H closed at 39 cents yesterday, up 29 cents, and boosting 50 Cent's 30 million-share stake by $8.7 million. Cha Ching!

Hey, when your Twitter account is 3.8 million followers strong, it can definitely be considered a lucrative side business.

Chelsea Handler's been dodging questions about her relationship with rapper 50 Cent, but it only fuels the rumors of a romance between the two when he shows up unannounced on her show!

And 50 did just that yesterday (for the second time in days!), making a surprise appearance backstage with Keenan Cahill, the 15-year-old YouTube sensation, joining Cahill in a lip-sync to "Down On Me."

Chelsea kept quiet on her rumored beau's appearance... but the more she tries to avoid, the more we think there's something to hide!
