The 'She Wants It' rapper and Ciara canoodled in a booth, while 50's 10-strong entourage sat at a large table opposite.

The group arrived in a fleet of cars, led by 50 driving a Lamborghini. Ciara and 50 met while working on the young singer's latest single 'Can't Leave 'Em Alone.'

The rap king recently said that he had been too kind with the rappers signed to his label G-Unit Records, spending .5 million on their most recent tour.

He said: "Whether I got to give them 0,000 or 0,000 just 'cause they want 0,000 more to make what they are doing at the time comfortable. Like, 'yo, I want to get this new place over here.'"

The 'Candy Shop' star has now made clear to the artists that he will no more be offering free handouts to them.
