Rapper 50 Cent lost over 50 pounds for a role in a movie that he authored. And he looks very,very sickly. He is portraying a cancer victim & I guess he really submerged himself into his latest role. In "Things Fall Apart",I hope his acting skills matches the physical effort that he has obviously put into this part. Because, thus far, 50 cent has not shown himself to be a great thespian thus far. If there was an Oscar for extreme effort,he would definitely get the nomination. Dude really looks terrible.And,yes,he does looks like DMX.
But, DMX may even look better than 50 Cent right now. Who ever thought that would happen?
Here's more from Celebrity Smack:
"50 Cent’s weight loss total = a whopping 54 pounds! He went from 214 to 160 pounds. How did he do it you ask? He went on a strictly liquid diet and walked on a treadmill for 3-hours a day, for more than 2 months.
Wow, just wow. 50 doesn’t even look like the same guy since losing all that weight! Bitches everywhere are going to be hitting up the liquids and treadmill walking, heh.
The U.S. wants Jamaican don,Christopher "Dudus" Coke. Now that Prime Minister Bruce Golding has agreed to extradite Coke,all hell has broken loose on the streets of Kingston. Supporters of Dudus are literally fighting to keep that from happening. It's really going down in Kingston town.
Here's more from The Jamaica Gleaner:
"Coke, according to key police sources, manages a network of criminal associates across the island, the Caribbean, North America and the United Kingdom.
Dudus is benefactor to many persons who depend on him to send their children to school, buy food and, most important, settle disputes beyond Jamaican borders.
But the United States authorities say a big portion of the wealth Dudus spends so freely comes from the illegal drug trade, while
many of the guns on the streets of Jamaica are brought here through his criminal network.
"Dudus runs the most sophisticated drug ring in Jamaica," a senior cop told The Sunday Gleaner, although he could offer no explanation as to why local police had not arrested and charged him in connection with any major crime.
"Dem man deh big and have links on both sides of the political fence, even though you know him support the JLP (Jamaica Labour Party)," said a rookie cop who entered the force with the bright idea that he could be the one to arrest and prosecute some of the island's crime kingpins.
"The senior man them already tell me say some man bigger than me, so all if me see Dudus with a spliff (ganja cigarette), me fi just mek him gwaan," added the rookie.
power of the man
That is an indication of the power of the man, and if there was any lingering questions about the reach of Dudus - who is wanted in the United States to answer gun and drug charges - those should have disappeared in the past few days.
The extradition request for Dudus is threatening to put an end to the political life of a prime minister, has already caused the resignation of a government senator, and has led to questions about the credibility of an administration that came to power with great expectations less than three years ago.
In addition, it has reduced commerce in downtown Kingston to a fraction of its regular performance, forced the army to call out the National Reserve, and caused the police to engage in planning an information strategy that has never before been seen by or commandeered the full attention of the entire nation.
If that were not enough, the spin-off from the extradition request has led the US to issue a travel alert for Jamaica, caused Britain and Canada to issue travel advisories for their nationals, and has the international media flooding Jamaica with calls for information.
While widespread rumour has it that CIA operatives have flooded Jamaica on account of the Coke issue, The Sunday Gleaner can confirm that international law-enforcement agencies and national-security partners have been keeping a close watch on the Dudus drama.
outside plea?
The Member of Parliament for West Kingston - the home base of Dudus - Prime Minister Bruce Golding, has appealed to the residents of Tivoli Gardens to remain calm and allow the extradition request to go through the courts.
However, the appeal, delivered from the Office of the Prime Minister on Friday, sounded more like an outsider pleading for cooperation rather than the man in charge of the constituency.
Of note, Golding did not say to the residents, 'Remove the many fortified blockades that you have erected!, an order that if issued by Dudus, would take place in minutes.
Hundreds of residents of West Kingston took to the streets last week to voice their support for Dudus and, while some joined the crowd out of fear that they would be targeted if they did not participate, many were out because of a genuine love for the 'President'.
"After God, then Dudus," read one placard. "Jesus died for us so we will die for Dudus," read another, and these were not idle sentiments.
The police are hoping that lawyers representing Coke will convince him to turn himself in and if that does not work, the security forces are adamant that they will arrest him. But as that drama plays out, an entire nation holds its collective breath as one man holds a country hostage."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the rest here.
Eric Snow has filed for divorce from his wife,Deshawn Snow. She used to be on the "Real Housewives of Atlanta."
Now,when the countess from "Real Housewives of New York" got dumped by her count,it was no surprise because her husband was hardly ever home anyway. But, Eric Snow seemed to dote on his big spending wife.
I guess I should have known that he would grow tired of Deshawn Snow's lust for lavishness. Although she seemed nice on the surface,Deshawn Snow was truly shallow. There seemed to be no depth to her at all.That's probably why people found her to be so boring to watch.
Here's more from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
"Former NBA player Eric Snow has filed for divorce from his wife DeShawn Graves Snow, a former star of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."
Eric Snow filed divorce papers in Fulton County Superior Court on Wednesday. The two have been married for 12 years but are currently separated. They live in Alpharetta.
There is "no hope of reconciliation," the court papers state.
In the documents, Eric Snow has requested that he and DeShawn Snow have joint custody of their three children, Eric Javon Snow; Darius Michael Snow; and Jarren Christopher Snow.
On her website, DeShawn Snow refers to Eric Snow as her college sweetheart. She also lists attending a National Basketball Wives Association and All-star Gospel Brunch event during NBA All-star weekend in Dallas in February.
Eric Snow was drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks in 1995. He played for several teams, including the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is now an analyst for NBA-TV.
The first season of RHOA started with Eric Snow as one of the captains of the Cavaliers and DeShawn Snow as an extremely active Atlanta socialite, sitting on the board of three different charities and running her own non-profit that focused on improving self-esteem in teenage girls.
She hosted two charity benefits -- one in front of RHOA cameras -- to little success.
After being criticized for failing to get in the middle of the show's dramatic muck, she was replaced by Kandi Burruss for the second season."(END OF EXCERPT) Read more here.
