Metallica lead singer James Hetfield has donated ten classic cars to the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, CA. Included in Hetfield's donations are a 1948 Jaguar “Black Pearl” and a 1937 Lincoln Zephyr “Voodoo Priest”.


The museum, whose mission is to "explore and present the history of the automobile and its impact on global life and culture," houses vehicles ranging from a 1910 Ford Model T to modern hypercars and an exhibit featuring sci-fi vehicles used in films like Blade Runner and Back To The Future.

The museum intends to pursue a couple of notable ventures in the next year.

50 Cent Talks Debut Novel, Celibacy and Never Getting Married on ‘Late Show’: ‘I’m Not a Happy Hostage’

The rapper also talked about the surprise Dr. Dre drop-in at his 12-year-old son Sire's birthday party.

According to 50 Cent, marriage is good for thee, but not for he. The hip-hop mogul sat down with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday night (Sept. 4) to chop it up about his happily unwedded lifestyle, as well as doubling down on a vow of celibacy he claimed has allowed him to stay super-focused.

“Listen, when you calm down you can focus,” 50 said after Colbert read a recent magazine headline touting the near-billionaire’s sex-free lifestyle. “I’ve been good to me.” Colbert wondered what the money was for then if not to share with the love of his life, with 50 (born Curtin Jackson) explaining, “[Money is] when things start getting complicated, things start getting confusing, ‘cause people come in for different reasons.”
