NO TIME TO FOLD NOW!!!

For his most recent movie role, 50 Cent went to extreme lengths to play the part.

In his upcoming movie, Things Fall Apart, 50 plays a football player diagnosed with cancer, reports ThisIs50.com.

In order to look the part, he dropped from 214 lbs to 160 with the help of a liquid diet and a three-hour-a-day treadmill walk for nine weeks.

"I was starving," said 50, who is currently on tour. "I've been eating. I'll be back in shape in no time!"

Other actors have been known for losing and gaining significant weight for their roles. One notable example is Christian Bale, who dropped to 120 lbs for 2004's The Machinist, and gained over 100 lbs for the titular role in Batman Begins.

Look I respect desire, determination & a strong will...I mean that is a big staple of my entire being but even I think this is a little drastic. But I still applaud 50 for building his own project, networking his ass off to get the top talent and doing everything that is needed for for it to be a success and for those reason alone I will watch this movie and root for it. I pretty much hated any movie 50 was in but this time I am on your side 50.


Some inspirational music for my boy Fif!!!

Ghostface Squashes Beef With 50 Cent, Says He’s Open to Record a Collabo

The feud between Ghostface Killah and 50 Cent is officially over. In a recent interview with XXLMag.com, the Wu-Tang vet said that his beef with Fif is a thing of the past.

As fans know, the two New York rappers had a public war of words years back, after 50 included the Shaolin heavyweight on 1999’s “How to Rob.” Ghost notoriously then fired back on a skit from his critically acclaimed Supreme Clientele album, as the deep-throated Clyde Smith. “Yo that nigga 50 Cent, I don’t even know why he did that lil bum ass shit right there,” he said. “But I’ma tell you something. You can say all them other niggas names but niggas gonna see you based on that big daddy…If I see you up in here I’ma have about 500 wolves on you…like I said 50 you a bird and niggas gonna see you.”

After seeing an interview with Starks on Fif’s web site, thisis50.com, XXL asked Tony what caused the change of heart. “That’s some old-school shit,” he shared. “Back then, things were all snowballed in the air on some other shit. I didn’t like what he said, that’s where it all started from anyway. But we kicked it on the phone one time, and after we kicked it on the phone that was it.”

“I aint really trying to hold no grudge fucking 30 years later after he done said whatever the fuck he done said,” Starks continued. “So it was like whatever.”

Ghost says he would even be open for recording a song with Fif.

“It’s whatever God wills,” he said. “At the end of the day we’re still people just trying to get ahead. It’s like you’re having a fight with a muthafucka 10 years ago… you can either keep the grudge or be like ‘yo wattup’ and just let it go and shit, it’s like what the fuck I’m holding on to it for. I respect all these niggas. As long as you respect me, I’ma respect you.”

Wizard of Poetry, Starks’ R&B-tinged eighth solo LP, is set to hit stores on September 29.

50 Cent Planning Free Concert in Queens, Cops in Fear

Jamiaca, Queens-native 50 Cent is secretly planning to put on a free show near his hometown, but authorities and residents fear it will bring violence and gunplay to the neighborhood.

The New York Post reports that the concert will take place near the Queens projects where Fif almost lost his life before signing to Shady/Aftermath. “We can’t control the area,” one law-enforcement source told the paper.

“Someone’s gonna try to make a name for themselves,” another source said. “They’re gonna take a shot at him, and they’re either gonna hit him or they’re gonna miss him and hit some poor, innocent kid or grandmother.”

A slew of police officers will shut down the 20 block radius of the South Jamaica Houses for the performace, which is set to draw in close to 10,000 fans.

The show is scheduled for August 30 at 5:30 p.m. at public elementary school P.S. 40. It will be a part of the neighborhood’s Family Day celebration

50 Cent Working with Forest Whitaker and Bette Midler

Abel Ferrara has decided to rework the classic film The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde and he has enlisted the help of 50 Cent. According to Variety, 50 will work longside Forest Whitaker for this film, which will now be titled Jeckyll and Hyde.

The film will be produced by Glasshouse Pictures' Brett Walsh and Cheetah Vision Films' Randall Emmett. Executive producer credits will be granted to Chris Lighty, Bonnie Timmerman, Sean Walsh, Andrew Orr, Michael Robinson and Luc Roeg. Orr, Robinson and Roeg are part of Independent, a UK production company that will handle international work in sales for the film.

"The combination of such formidable talent in front of and behind the camera will turn this wonderful gothic story into a modern classic for a whole new generation," Roeg told Variety.

No finalized date has been set for the film's release.

In somewhat related news, 50 has also collaborated with Hollywood icon Bette Midler. In a recent conversation with E!, Midler praised Fif on his work with her enviornmental group, The New York Restoration Project. The two worked together on a public garden in Jamaica, Queens.

"He never asked how much," she told E! of his willingness to help. "He just said, Where do I sign?"

Expect more from Midler and 50. The two will be on hand to celebrate The New York Restoration Project's eighth annual spring picnic on May 19. The event, which will take place in New York's Fort Tryon Park, may also host guests like Dolly Parton and more.

Can a musical partnership come from this? Midler added that she is not opposed to it.

"I was hoping we'd sing songs from the Depression, but he's so young that I don't think he knows any of them. I'm going to have to check things out and see what he feels like singing."

Video: Rick Ross Enlists Lil Wayne For 50 Cent Diss Track ‘Valley Of Death’

MTV Shows

We already knew that Wayne joins Kanye West and T-Pain on Ross’ “Maybach Music 2,” but the Bawse revealed to us that Weezy will also be featured on “Valley of Death.” A snippet of the song was released online recently, and Ross disses 50 Cent on his part. There’s no word yet on what Wayne raps about, but Ross said the New Orleans superstar’s verse was easy to get because of their friendship.

” ‘Valley of Death,’ that concept was just, that’s really what it is — every day I get up and live the life that I live. Do the things I do. Move how I move,” Ross added. “Walking in the valley of death, I feel my life is on the line every day. It’s a 50/50 chance.”

For his part, Lil Wayne has stayed away from any type of quarreling with 50 thus far. In fact, he has chosen to not address 50’s attacks against him.

Another person Rick has been working with is 50 nemesis Ja Rule. Rule is on the remix of “Mafia Music,” the record that sparked the G-Unit/ Rick Ross beef. “Ja Rule is on the record,” he said. “Y’all gotta lay around for it.”

Eminem, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent Double Down At The Palms

As Eminem fans impatiently await the arrival of the upcoming album, Relapse, the rapper is actively making his presence known. According to the Las Vegas Sun, Em and fellow rappers Dr. Dre and 50 Cent [click to read] just finished a three-week stay at The Palms in Las Vegas filming a music video and putting down tracks in the studio.

The video, reportedly for Em’s upcoming single, “We Made You,” also featured Palms owner and business mogul George Maloof.

“We [shot the video] in the casino playing blackjack,” said Maloof. “I actually dressed up as a dealer and it was kind of [like the] scene from Rain Man. I dealt cards to the three guys, to Dr. Dre and Eminem and 50 Cent.”

Before the three rap giants wrapped up the video shoot, they hit the studio, in what Maloof called one of the loudest recording sessions he’d ever heard.

“I think it’s the only time that we’ve had anybody in our studio where you could actually hear the sound through the walls,” he said. “The room…is four rooms in one. It’s like, impossible to hear through the walls—except for those guys.”

Although Maloof said the trio held noisy studio sessions, he also said that they were very focused.

A clip of the video will premiere April 7 on MTV at 6 a.m. and every hour afterwards. Relapse is reportedly set to drop on May 19.
