50 Cent Addresses Weight Loss
Rap-Up caught up with 50 Cent and discussed his weight loss for the upcoming movie, Things Fall Apart. Fif says he’ll back to his normal physique in no time.
For those who still can’t believe it, can you confirm the authenticity of those photos?
Yeah, they’re absolutely real. I shot the first half of the film for eight days and then I left for my international tour, and I spent that time training to lose weight. I had a week and a half after coming back to really intensely train to get down to 160 for the last half of the film project, Things Fall Apart. It’s myself, Mario Van Peebles, Lynn Whitfield, and Ray Liotta starring in the project. It’s directed by Mario Van Peebles.We barely recognized you.
Yeah, it was a lot for me to actually get there. After the second week, it was crazy. They say it takes 30 days to make a habit, but man… I was on the Internet and I was looking at Christian Bale, while The Machinist was out, he almost killed himself. I was feeling like maybe I’m overdoing it and I’m dropping 54 pounds, but I was in such a good physical state prior to me deciding to go down on the weight.What motivated you?
I just trained to get as big as I physically could be for the first half. It felt like I had a lot of muscle on me still and I was trying to lose as much as possible to be authentic to what I saw in my experience, because my motivation for the project was my best friend, Charles Pringle. He lived across the street from me; he actually died of cancer. It’s a serious topic. One out of eight people in the world die of cancer. It tops HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria together. If you’re not actually gonna die of cancer, chances are someone you’re active with in your life is.Have you put on weight since then?
Right now I weigh 198 pounds. I’m trying to get back to 200 and then I’ll start weight training again to get my body back together.So will your fans still be able to recognize you onstage?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’ll never go out looking crazy like I just smoked something [laughs]. I’m trying to get myself back together immediately.
That’s true dedication. Hopefully these moves he is making for his movies will open the window for bigger roles in Hollywood. People blogging about his self financed joints going straight to DVD like it’s a failure. The DVD market is still profitable and doing all these roles should hopefully help him strengthen his acting skills. He has along ways to go in that regard, but if he keeps at it he can only get better.
That liquid diet could have killed him because that shit is not healthy.
But good for him.
Hopefully he can use that dedication to provide us a better album. 1st 2 (GRODT & Massacre)joints were hard body. Those last 2 (Curtis & BISD) were bullshit. I got faith in this nigga to correct his mistakes.
And we know that G-Unit/Def Jam announcement is coming soon, so you may all start your hating now on this nigga that is filthy rotten rich.
50 lost
@E-Hustle

Another straight to DVD movie by Curtis Jackson
Wow that’s dedication. But those pics make me ill. And this nigga could have died. And he still in danger now. Cutting that much weight and putting it back on in a short period really messes with your body.
@ dat k00n nigga –
I doubt it now after all the publicity the movie has. But if it goes straight to DVD that would be a sad blow
50 lost
^^^
Lost what?? The nigga has the money to finance his own movies. If 50 woke up and had Rick Ross money he’d jump out a fuckin window.
he looks like Gary Coleman
Drake – Shut It Down f. The-Dream [Final CDQ]: http://bubblegumway.wordpress.com/
u guys only talk about money?? i know 50 does, but from this interview, u can see he is not chasing money from doing this movie, it is a tribute to his friend, and he will still get paid
LMAO @ bloggers talking about his health and shit. Yall really think with all the money this nigga 50 has he doesnt have a personal trainer + nutritionist and all that shit?
fuck outta here with your stupid comments…seriously kids
Well, Interscope Employee, maybe their thinking is along these lines: Michael Jackson, who also had guap by the way and access to the best physicians and nutritional experts died under the care of one of his doctors. Not so dumb now is it?
HE WOULD BE HUSKY AS FUCK IN 2 MONTHS money
AHAHAHAH!!! Niggas talkin about “if it goes straight to DVD”… He said it’s starring Mario Van Peebles, Ray Liotta and 50 Cent… That shit is the definition of STRAIGHT TO DVD… Mind you, I’m sure that was part of the strategy, cause this shit WILL NOT be getting a major release… I’m just sayin…
