12/14/06 - The double life of 50 Cent: Curtis branches out

markforlife · 12-14-2006, 06:58 PM

hit the rep up

50 Cent refused to use his stage name on the promotional posters for his new film - because he was concerned it would scare people away.

The rapper chose to be referred to by his real name, Curtis Jackson, for 'Home of the Brave' because he believes it gives him more credibility.

He said: "I think when people hear 50 Cent they directly associate it with the music and the aggressive content in the music. So I told them to use my real name and put 50 Cent in the middle."

50 - who plays an American soldier returning home from the Iraq war in the movie - insists his on-screen character is very different from his aggressive rap star image.

He added: "I think fans might be disappointed when they see my character and he doesn't have that same aggressive edge that they're familiar with from 50 Cent, the rapper."

The hip-hop star made his movie debut in 2005, when he starred in the semi-autobiographical movie 'Get Rich Or Die Tryin'', which focused on an aspiring rapper trying to make it in music business.

He also appears alongside Nicolas Cage in boxing drama 'The Dance', which is due for release in 2008.

Instead of letting this type of shit slide like most people used to, I think it's time motherfuckers start calling out bitches like FREZIE111 to PROVE that 50 snitched on ANYONE. Do you have a recording of him speaking to cops? If you do does he incriminate anyone? Who does this motherfucker incriminate bitch? Who has he sent to prison? If you say Ghetto Quran you get an automatic jab to the fuckin throat you stupid fuck, they have never used and will never use anything in the Ghetto Quran track to prosecute someone. Even with that being said, the people 50 talks about on that track were already on trial or incarcerated. So you stupid 10 year-old "he-said-she-said pansy," who did 50 snitch on?

markforlife · 12-14-2006, 09:03 PM

i guess its a good idea dont bother the kid
