Rapper Eminem turned down an $8 million offer to perform at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, according to his longtime friend and rapper 50 Cent.

He said he and Eminem were offered $9 million for the gig, and he wouldn’t mind taking the $1 million out of it.

“Because of the Super Bowl, I got an inquiry about World Cup and they had a budget of $9 million,” Fiddy shared. “I would’ve taken one and the other eight would have been for him.” Fiddy discussed it with Eminem’s manager, Paul Rosenberg. However, the Lose Yourself rapper was not interested. — IANS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
