One of the most celebrated vehicles within the Mercedes-Benz lineup, the SL series has seen much success over the course of its 60-year existence. The series has also enjoyed its fair share of screen time being one of the notable favorites to Hollywood directors and actors alike to the tune of 150 appearances in both film and television since its inception. To celebrate the series’ 60-year anniversary, Irvine, California-based Mercedes-Benz Classic Center will be hosting a special commemorative showcase to the SL series titled “Timeless: 60 Years of the Mercedes-Benz SL.” The event will highlight every model from the automaker’s extensive 60-year archive. Additionally, Mercedes-Benz has pledged a substantial donation on behalf of its SL Series to the Film Foundation to aid in the organization’s film restoration efforts.

Showing a more humanitarian side to himself, 50 Cent recently traveled to Somalia, one of the poorest and lawless countries in the world, on behalf of the United Nations World Food Program and Street King. The Jamaica Queens rapper donated meals to hungry children who only ate once a day in the drought stricken and war torn region. Most notably remembered for his controversial music, the rapper expressed that he wanted to be remembered for more than just his music.
