Meryl Streep, 50 Cent make a night of it at the Knicks game

Meryl Streep can’t help but hang out in starry company, it seems, but this time it wasn’t at an awards show. The three-time Oscar winner found herself in the front row of the Knicks home game versus the Lakers on Sunday night, seated next to rapper 50 Cent.

And Fiddy did the world a favor by chronicling parts of the evening on Instagram.

The picture above has to be the best, with injured Laker Kobe Bryant, Streep and 50 Cent striking poses outside the locker room after the game. “Things got a little gangsta Lol,” he captioned the shot. “TURN UP, Turn Down for what!

“Best ball KOBE, Best Rap 50, Best Actress Meryl Streep. TOP THAT,” read the caption on a shot of the three in a more serious pose.

The actress and the rapper also held hands while having a laugh in their seats, and Fiddy captioned a picture of just himself and a smiling Streep with, “Man I got a good life man lol.”

No kidding. We’re jelly!
