Rapper 50 Cent is almost unrecognizable as he has gone from 214 pounds to 160 pounds for an upcoming movie role -- and he reveals how he dropped the weight.
The rapper plays a cancer-stricken football player in the movie 'Things Fall Apart,' and, according to his Web site, he went on an all-liquid diet to shed the weight and endured three-hour-a-day treadmill walks for nine weeks.
"I was starving," he says on ThisIs50.com. "I've been eating. I'll be back in shape in no time!"
