Rapper 50 Cent has lost 50lbs for a new film where he plays a football player with cancer. For the movie Things Fall Apart, he dropped from 214lbs to 160 in nine weeks after liquid dieting and running on a treadmill three hours a day. But the 33-year-old said that when he was shot in the jaw in 2000, he could drink only liquids and his weight dropped to 157lbs. “This time it was a lot tougher for me,” the 6-foot-tall rapper said “I had to discipline myself not … to actually have myself be in the physical state to convey the energy I felt. It’s a passion project for me,” said 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson. The film is about a childhood friend of the rapper who died of cancer. Actors including Robert De Niro, Christian Bale, Tom Hanks and Renee Zellweger are known for adjusting their weight in movies, and 50 said he did research when keeping the weight off got hard. “I actually got on the computer,” he said. “When it started getting difficult, I was looking to see what their experience was like and I got a chance to see all of the interviews they had at different time periods when they were doing promotion for the projects.”
