Rapper turned budding film star 50 Cent has unleashed a string of abuse and images on Twitter, with one particularly risque picture earning him a ban from posting further photos.

But that brief ban was soon lifted and he was back in action, uploading photoshopped images showing himself as Osama bin Laden, Adolf Hitler, Hannibal Lecter and Saddam Hussein. Another image showed the rapper as an "angry old man".

Just over a week ago 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, took control of his Twitter page from his management team.

He immediately began hurling abuse at everyone from Kanye West to Paris Hilton to even his own grandmother.

One particularly risque image he published showed a woman with a giant burger wedged between her buttocks - he dubbed it the "Kim K burger" after celebrity Kim Kardashian. This led him to be banned from Twitpic but his account has since been reinstated.

"Twitpic just suspended my account damn They got 30mns to get it back or ima go haywire," he wrote.

The rapper also published a video showing a blonde woman simulating a sex act with a large sex toy.

In one of his first tweets since he took over his Twitter account, 50 cent railed at his grandmother for bossing him around.

"I can't belive my grand mothers making me take Out the garbage I'm rich f---- this I'm going home I don't need this s---," he wrote.

He also revealed his "aunt Sylvia" killed his dog by putting "roach spray in a bowl".

50 cent was so taken in by his newfound Twitter following - which now sits at over 3 million users - that he nearly crashed his car while tweeting.

"Oh shit this b---- almost hit my carTwitter almost killed meYou can't tweet and drive at the same timeIll f--- wit yall later," he wrote.

50 cent let fly at Lindsay Lohan for only serving a fraction over her prison sentence: "You get perks when ur a fine white women in america they gave lindsay lohan 90 days da b---- did 4 how come when I get 90 days I do 90 days."

He also wrote how he had seen Paris Hilton on a cocaine binge and attacked fellow rapper Kanye West over his tweets.

"I just looked at kanye page what the f--- kind a spaced out tweets are those. f--- that I aint never looking at that s--- again," he wrote.

Many of his tweets could be lyrics to his rap songs - he frequently launches nonsensical tirades of abuse at no one in particular.

At one point he fired a broadside at strippers: "If you a stripper and you have a low self esteem Its probably because your fat and ugly. I suggest you kill yourself."

Eventually 50 Cent apologised for his swearing before launching into another profanity-laden mind dump.

"You know one day I might wanna run for president like wyclef I must stop using such profanity. Then again f--- that," he wrote.

"I really don't like when people call me crazy I'm not crazy I'm special and I don't wish bad on anyone. Learn to love me"
