50 Cent throws first pitch 50 feet wide of home plate (Video)

Rapper, actor and entrepreneur 50 Cent threw an absolutely disastrous first pitch prior to Tuesday night's New York Mets game at Citi Field against Pittsburgh.

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, threw the ball hard enough to reach home plate, but let go of the ball way too early. As a result, the ball went about 50 feet wide of home plate. And no, we're not exaggerating - that much. It was really, really horrendous.

This was probably more embarrassing for Jackson than that kiss with Erin Andrews.  However, Jackson's throw wasn't as bad as the one Carly Rae Jepsen threw last year, which not only was wide of the plate, but way, way short.
