HE famously had a hit with In Da Club in 2003. But it seems bad-boy rapper 50 Cent has grown out of his party-loving ways.
Fiddy stunned locals in Glasgow, ahead of his headline set at TRNSMT last night, as he enjoyed an evening of ten-pin bowling with his G-Unit entourage.
He was at hotspot Vega, enjoying drinks in the sky-high bar and using its luxe bowling lanes.
And rather than bottles of champagne, I'm told 50 was enjoying his very own Branson XO Cognac.
An onlooker said: 'We couldn't believe it was him, we had to do a double-take!
Everyone knows he's a legend on stage, but he's also a legend in the lanes.
He scored strike after strike and was having a great time.
If it's any indication of what his TRNSMT performance will be like, it looks like he'll be at the top of his game.'
Sadly, my mole didn't tell me if he had the bumpers up but by the sounds of it he certainly didn't need them.

BEY SO GLAM AS COWGIRL

BEYONCE shows she's a cut above the rest as she continues her epic Cowboy Carter Tour.
The Drunk In Love singer wowed Landover in Maryland by donning this slashed leotard and Lycra trousers combo.
Ever the fashionista, Queen Bey sported matching gloves and a red cowboy hat.
Beyonce horrifies fans as she suffers mid-air drama in flying car prop during Cowboy Carter show
She only has one more city left to perform in before wrapping up the global trek in Las Vegas later this month.
While everyone is still guessing as to what the superstar will do next, we do know ACT III of her three part album series isn't far off.
Act I saw Bey take on the dancefloors with Renaissance while Act II saw her break the mould by tackling country music.
Act III is said to be a rock record.
If so, I can't wait to hear what she's cooked up for us.

YESTERDAY was full of surprises.
As well as Justin Bieber dropping a whole new album, Robbie Williams and Craig David also caught us off guard by releasing new songs.
Robbie has teamed up with Laura Pausini for official Fifa anthem Desire – a string-filled uplifting track that could have come straight out of a film score.
Meanwhile, Craig has teamed up with JoJo for beautiful ballad In It With You, which sees their vocals blend perfectly in harmony together.
TINA'S GOT REAL FLEUR

FLEUR EAST's stint as the legendary Tina Turner is a solid West End debut – even with impossibly big shoes to fill.
A bit like Tina's career, the show is a tale of two halves.
While the first half of the performance is slow to get off the ground, it's another story from curtain up on Act II.
The finale is also easily one of the most fun and joyous I've ever seen on the West End.
X Factor winner turned presenter Fleur has Tina's movements and mannerisms down to a tee.
Is it quite Tina vocally? No. But then again is anyone?
It's impossible to deny Fleur's vocals outshine most of the voices in the UK.
A special shout-out must also go to Rhianne King, who plays a young Anna Mae Bullock [Tina] and was fabulous from the start and throughout.
After running since 2018, Tina will close for the final time on September 13 and if you're in town or a fan of the music icon it's well worth a visit.
DAGNY: TOUR CAME ABOUT JUST IN TIME
SHE's just finished touring the UK with Justin Timberlake.
And Scandi popstar Dagny is already keen to get back on the road and perform for UK fans.
Chatting to Bizarre, the rising star said: 'The crowd in Chelmsford was lovely. Justin has such dedicated fans and they've made it easy for us as support acts to feel part of it.
'It's always interesting to see how a new audience responds. I appreciate when people are curious about new music, and it feels like we have a little 45-minute journey together and by the end we are connected. I hope I can come back on tour again next year.'
The singer added: 'I'd planned to spend this year working on the next album, but when the opportunity to support Justin came up, it was an easy yes.
'I always get a bit restless after sitting in the studio for too many months in a row, so it felt good to get out on tour.'
OLIVIA'S ALIVE AND SWELL
★★★★☆

FRESH from taking Glastonbury by storm, Olivia Rodrigo continued her quest for world domination by headlining NOS Alive! In Lisbon, Portugal.
Considering the American pop-rock princess only has two albums under her belt, Olivia's stage presence is the stuff of legend – and she made sure everyone in the crowd on Thursday knew it.
It was a no-frills rock show with shredding guitar solos, an all-female band and an energy that had everyone from her pre-teen superfans to their chaperone dads dancing.
Olivia is a powerhouse when it comes to angst-ridden boy-busting anthems, but she couldn't resist a shout-out to her British actor beau, Louis Partridge, to whom she dedicated track So American, before declaring she was 'so in love' with him.
While Lisbon missed out on the star bringing out a surprise collaborator – who could forget when she was joined by The Cure's Robert Smith on stage at Glasto – fans were given pure, unapologetic Olivia.
And she set the standard incredibly high for the weekend to come.
RYAN TEDDER and his band One Republic have given us hits for two decades.
But it seems the American group are only just getting started.
One Republic have signed a worldwide record deal with BMG – the home of Kylie Minogue and Rita Ora.
Prior to the new deal they had spent 18 years on Mosley Music Group/Interscope.
New single Beautiful Colors is the lead track off their upcoming seventh album, due out this year.
