50 Cent spoke out on the incedible weight loss he has undergone for the upcoming film, 'Things Fall Apart,' where he portrays a cancer stricken football player. While many allege that recent pictures of the rapper's weight loss are the product of make-up and photoshop, the rapper is said to have fallen from 214 pounds to 160 in nine weeks. The rapper revealed he used a liquid dieting and running on a treadmill three hours a day but revealed it was not the first time he had undergone a similar regime. 50 explained that when he was shot in the jaw in 2000, he could drink only liquids and his weight dropped to 157, saying, "This time it was a lot tougher for me, 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." 50 went on to reveal that he looked to other weight-loss actors including Robert De Niro, Christian Bale, Tom Hanks and Rene Zellweger for inspiration, saying, "I actually got on the computer," adding, "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." The rapper is, however, putting the weight back on and has reached 198 pounds. Despite the effort he went to, 50 Cent doesn't see himself winning any awards for his acting, ""Well, you know, I haven't received accolades that comes with the success that I've had in music," he said, "It would be a surprise" to win any acting awards, he said, noting that it's already a reward to have people aware of the role." 'Things Fall Apart,' which is about a childhood friend of the rapper who died of cancer, is currently in production.

Rapper Mac Minister failed to have his murder conviction overturned. He was charged with murdering Kansas City rapper Anthony 'Fat Tone' Watkins and Germaine 'Cowboy' Atkins in Las Vegas in May 2005, in retaliation for the 2004 killing of Bay Area rap legend, Mac Dre. Mac Minister and an associate are said to have lured Fat Tone and Cowboy to Las Vegas with the promise of meeting Snoop Dogg. The pair were seen leaving their hotel with Mac Minister hours before they were murdered. Fat Tone and Cowboy dead in a construction area outside of Las Vegas having suffered multiple gunshot wounds. Lawyers for Mac Minister argued that at least 10 errors were made during his trial but the Nevada Supreme Court ruled that only two of the errors shouldn’t have been allowed and said even those had no bearing on the ruling. While it has never been proven, it was suspected that Fat Tone was involved in Mac Dre’s death.

We'll just have to take our source's word for it as there's not much chance of us wanting to see that :)

Gary Coleman, who rose to fame in the sitcom 'Diff'rent Strokes', has died aged 42. The former child star died of a intracranial hemorrhage suffered during a fall last week where he hurt his head. Coleman was on life support before wife, Shannon, made the decision to pull the plug. A rep for Coleman released this statement, "Thanks to everyone for their well wishing and support during this tragic time. Now that Gary has passed, we know he will be missed because of all the love and support shown in the past couple of days. Gary is now at peace and his memory will be kept in the hearts of those who were entertained by him throughout the years."  Let's have a moment of silence for him, and bury is catch phrase with him, too, which we felt haunted him in life.
