What happens in Vegas... is captured on TMZ cameras for the world to see.
ESPN's Stephen A. Smith must know that now. After 50 Cent appeared on ESPN's First Take last week, the outspoken sports personality joined the rap superstar on stage during a performance. While barking at his First Take co-host Skip Bayless makes for good morning television, the footage of Stephen A. two-stepping to 50 is priceless. See for yourself.
While TMZ Sports was probably a little harsh in labeling his two-step as the "what the hell am I doing up here" swag, we will say that Stephen A. could use a little more bounce in his two-step. Loosen up, Stephen! You're in Vegas. Have a good time. Who cares who's watching? Who cares if you're older than anyone in G-Unit? It's about having fun.
The only thing that could have made this moment more memorable is if Skip would have joined Stephen A. on stage. Now that would have been pure gold.
Of course, the leaked footage flooded the Internet with comments like this one:
Sure, it looked a bit awkward, but he's not harming anybody. The fact that 50 is close friends with Floyd Mayweather Jr. – and that Stephen A. has gone to bat for the undefeated boxing champion – will likely generate more Money Team hate. But then, Stephen A. is already turning the page to the NBA playoffs.
