50 CENT – LIQUID DIET

It was not new for actors to lose weight for a project. Christian Bale, Chriss Pratt, and Cillian Murphy are just a few of the actors who strategically lost weight for their roles in films. Adding to the list is the singer turned actor 50 Cent. In 2010, 50 Cent dropped a whopping 50 pounds in preparation for his starring role in the film Things Fall Apart.

He credits his immediate weight loss to a liquid diet and profuse hours of running on the treadmill. In just nine weeks, he achieved his weight goal. His manager even got concerned about his drastic weight loss and asked him to see a doctor. He claimed that this kind of diet was not something new to him. He once did this diet in 2000 after an incident that prohibited him from eating solid food.
