50 Cent is overjoyed to be honored with his own day in Bridgeport, Connecticut - and plans to celebrate it with "a nice picnic."

The rapper/actor - real name Curtis Jackson - filmed new movie Righteous Kill in the state, which he also calls home.

Now authorities have decided to give him the key to the city on October 12 - which will officially be known as Curtis Jackson Day.

But instead of going overboard with his celebrations, the star has something more peaceful in mind.

He says, "I'd probably just have a nice picnic! But everybody should have a block party - with just my music being played!"
