Hip-hop’s sexy couple rapper 50 Cent and singer Ciara made it a Cirque du Soleil visit to Las Vegas. They took in the early show of O at the Bellagio, and even though hip-hop mogul 50 Cent was disguised in an Afro wig, baseball cap and sunglasses, he was still spotted. Ciara also tried to be incognito in a huge pair of trendy shades and a large parka.

The twosome arrived just as O began and entered through the back of the theater with the help of their bodyguard. Ciara snacked on Sour Patch Kids, Snickers and Hershey bars during the show, and they left seconds before the performance ended to avoid getting mobbed.

They also saw the sexy, adults-only Zumanity at New York-New York. The provocative production known as “the sensual side of Cirque du Soleil” features topless beauties taking milk baths and swimming in an oversized champagne glass under the guidance of a very tall male emcee dressed as a woman!

50 Cent also turned up at Caesars Palace to watch his rapper friends Dr. Dre and Eminem filming a new music video there. He’s a friend of both singers and watched their action from behind the cameras. If the video gives you a sense of déjà vu, that’s because it replicates Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman’s escalator scene from the Oscar-winning Rain Man, which also was shot at Caesars Palace.

Then 50 Cent began filming his own video over at the Palms. Before he went in front of the cameras, he treated himself to a manicure and pedicure at Michael Boychuck’s Amp salon there. The staff said he was polite and friendly during the treatments.
