50 Cent fans are in for a dramatic change to the rapper’s muscular physique — 50 is losing 65 pounds for his upcoming movie Things Fall Apart. The “In Da Club” hitmaker co-wrote the screenplay, about a college football player suffering from cancer. Things Fall Apart is scheduled to begin shooting in Michigan in May. 50 made his acting debut in the semi-autobiographical 2005 film Get Rich or Die Tryin.’

50 Cent teams up with his former lover Vivica A. Fox and Joe Budden’s highly-blogged about ex, Tahiry, in the music video “Do You Think About Me?” — which is inspired by Martin Lawrence’s hit 1996 comedy A Thin Line Between Love and Hate.
“I actually wanna write a sorta ‘Thin Line Between Love and Hate’ – a piece that kind of has that energy that the film with Martin Lawrence had to it……You know, of course they were happy in the beginning. [Then] she only sees what she wants. She was so angry, she could hurt him.”
The single is taken from the rapper’s fourth — and lowest-performing — album to date, Before I Self-Destruct.
