Rap-Up.com || 50 Cent Slims Down for Film Role

50 Cent is looking more like 25 Cent these days. The usually buff rapper shed 54 pounds for his upcoming film Things Fall Apart, in which he plays a football player diagnosed with cancer. Fiddy brought his weight down to 160 pounds from his original 214 by going on a liquid diet and walking three hours a day on the treadmill for nine weeks.

“I was starving,” says the hip-hop mogul, who launches his “Invitation” tour in Cleveland this Friday. “I’ve been eating. I’ll be back in shape in no time!”

Holy shiznet! I didn’t even recognize him at first. LOL. It does show true commitment though when an actor or actress does something like this for a movie role. It shows that they are really focused on making their role seem realistic.

I picture everybody 50′s ever beefed with laughing hysterically and falling out of their chairs (with some of them, it’s not a pretty sight)

That picture is pretty good promo for The Darkside and The R.E.D. Album…Both Joey & Game should post this up and declare victory!

OMG FIFTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U BETTA BE EATINGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but honestly these pix might be from the movie set. I saw pix of him in concert recently & he looked slim, but just like he lost his buffness….so hopefully that was after the movie…because if these pix were taken recently like this week then OMGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! WELL at least hes DEDICATED!! but he looks sick!! im sure he has make-up to make him look like death but!! whoooo he shouldnt look like that!! but as playing a cancer patient this will be ideal when the movie comes out…I HOPE ITS GOOD!! especially for the drastic change he underwent!!

Not a good look at all, he really looks f’d. But at the end of the day it’s only temporary, he’s bloody rich so slimming down for a few months isn’t a thing to him. But personally I wouldn’t do this to myself. Shit son!

It really is like “The Machinist”! He looks like he coulda been in the cigarette about the dangers of smoking. He really looks like he’s dying. I’ll go see the movie just because…I hope he didn’t lose all that weight for nothing!
