Of course not! He is just dedicated to his art.  50 Cent has already made his mark on the rap industry, the movie industry, and even the thirst quench beverage industry.  50 Cent is a straight up mogul taking over one business after another but where is he now?  He is still everywhere, we just can’t see him because he is so damn skinny.  To prepare for his new movie roll, 50 has lost around 60 pounds!  50 is playing a college football player who is dying of cancer in the new movie “Thing Fall Apart”.  How did he lose all this weight? He used a liquid diet and daily 3-hour runs on a treadmill to lose the weight over a 9 week span. The movie is due to come out next year and he will be starring along Ray Liotta, Mario Van Peebles, and Lynn Whitfield.  I have to say when you are known for being an artist and you’re not getting much respect as an actor I think transforming yourself is the way to go, it worked for Maria Carey in ‘Precious’.  I think 50 looks very convincing in this picture so I’m really looking forward to seeing him dominate this role.

50 Cent recently talked about Dr Dre’s long-awaited “Detox” album. Saying the high-anticipated LP will have ten tracks, 50 gave his opinion on it. “Dre is actually working,” the G-Unit general promised fans during a recent interview. “I heard eight records. When it takes this long, I’ma tell you what I heard. I heard eight and Em [Eminem] said it’s ten. So it’s probably two I didn’t get a chance to hear.”

50 went on to talk about the album being delayed. “I think [the wait] actually builds more pressure. Are you trying to get it or are you trying to scare the sh*t out of ‘em? I know, its been taking him a long time. [He's also] so critical of himself at the same time. You know what it is too, I look at it like this. I love some of the things he thinks that are just ‘good’… I kinda feel like I can gauge what is necessary at this point…When’s the last time you heard a hip-hop record that didn’t have an R&B chorus in the Top 10? You understand what I’m saying. It’s changing hip-hop music to the point where it’s necessary for you to have an R&B artist or perform like an R&B artist on the hook…You can tell the deejay to slow down but when motherf*cking [Black Eyed Peas' ] ‘Boom Boom Pow’ is No. 1, how you gonna tell the artist what to make?”

In related news, the image above is from 50 Cent’s video set for “Ok, You’re Right” which is set to release soon.
