Earlier this week, 50 Cent threw out the worst first pitch in Major League Baseball history. This is a photogenic fact . Asked to explain what the HECK happened during an appearance on Good Morning America today, the rapper swore such an incomprehensibly poor toss was not a publicity stunt. “It slipped! It slipped out of my hand,” the 38-year-old said. “I’m not a professional pitcher, I make music.” 50 Cent First Pitch Fail Fiddy said the pitch has became so notorious so quickly that the police even pulled him over just to talk about it. “I was a little nervous when he pulled me over,” the artist said. “I was, like, ‘Oh no, what did I do?’ and then he said, ‘You know that pitch was terrible.” It really was. 50 Cent took to Twitter soon after and exclaimed: “I’m a hustler not a Damn ball player. LMAO…The sh!t almost hit the camera man damn, if you look close you can see them moving the plate.” Sorry, Fiddy. But we never wanna see this pitch ever again. Look below.

What do parenting and pitching have in common for 50? 50 Cent Throws Wayward First Pitch At Mets/Pirates Game When he isn’t busy defending his “deadbeat” fathering skills and chiming in on antics that don’t involve him , 50 Cent makes the odd publicity appearance. This time, he was tapped to throw the first pitch at Citi Field before the Met’s game. Unfortunately, the pitch went VERY left…literally. Hey, he said he was a gangster, not an athlete. …maybe it’s a good thing Curtis was never around to teach his son sports skills?

A 34-year-old Texas woman, Charity Anne Johnson, pretended to be a high school sophomore for nearly an entire year, fooling everyone in the process. Duping her Longview, Texas, teachers, classmates and even the woman who took her in, school officials said nothing of the sort indicated a ruse. “Everyone we talked to assumed she was a teenager like she said, because she looked like one,” said Stuart Newlin, principal of New Life Christian School. “She had friends,” he said, as puzzled as anyone. “Everybody liked her.” Texas Woman Poses as High School Sophomore It’s anything but clear why Charity Anne Johnson, who was arrested this week, allegedly enrolled at the school in October as 15-year-old Charity Stevens. “That’s a mystery. We have no clue,” Newlin said of Johnson’s stint at school. “She came in with a guardian; there was no reason to be suspicious.” “Usually, parents come in, they fill out the paperwork and we take their word for it. If they come from another school, then you transfer the records.” “If they come from home school, they don’t have those records.” Tamica Lincoln, the woman whom Johnson had been living with, was dumbfounded, saying, “She acted like a kid. She did her homework. She got good report cards.” Johnson even kept up a presence on social media, posing for selfies and posted snapshots of friendship bracelets and Hello Kitty on Instagram and Twitter. Lincoln had been Johnson’s caregiver since March. After meeting her at McDonald’s, where they both worked, she said Johnson told her she needed a place to stay after her parents died and her sister was MIA. “I allowed her to come into my house,” Lincoln said of Johnson. “I was just trying to be nice and kindhearted and get her out of the situation she was in.” She discovered Johnson might be lying about her age after getting a phone call from a woman who ran a group for needy children that Johnson tried to join. The woman had run a background check, Lincoln said. “I started looking into it. I contacted the manager that works at that McDonald’s. He pulled up her file and the date of birth was 1979. The name was Charity Johnson.” Police say Johnson is 34 years old despite jail records that list her being 31 years old. Johnson was arrested late Monday after Lincoln called the police. She lied about her name and was charged with failure to show identification, police said. Johnson is behind bars at Gregg County Jail on a $500 bond. THG’s Most Notorious Criminals 1.

The cast of Pitch Perfect 2 is officially in the swing of things. Check out this photo shared by Elizabeth Banks, who is directing the sequel in New Orleans: “365 days until Pitch Perfect 2 is released,” the 40-year-old wrote. In the pic, Banks, Anna Kendrick, Brittany Snow, Rebel Wilson, Hailee Steinfeld, and others wear matching “Bellas” jackets, for their Barden Bellas singing team. Earlier, it was announced that newcomer / Taylor Swift BFF Steinfeld would be joining the film. “It’s official and I’m SO excited!!!!!! #PitchPerfect2,” she wrote. Banks, for her part, has tried to keep tight-lipped about it. “All I can say right now is that they will be graduating seniors this time around, rather than freshmen,” the Hunger Games: Catching Fire star said last month. “I’m really excited to direct the girls. The whole project speaks so much to me and to women and to making women funny in really fun and interesting ways.” “I’m looking forward to letting the girls let loose.” So are we, even if we have to wait a whole year to see the finished product.
