In the realm of rappers-turned-actors, Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, aka The Guy Who Got Shot 9 Times And Has Thus Earned The Right To Not Shut The Hell Up About It, hasn't exactly achieved Will Smith level of credibility in Hollywood. Hell, he hasn't earned a Jazzy Jeff level of credibility in Hollywood.

Even in his big screen debut, where he was literally just playing himself, 50 looked about as comfortable as your average colonoscopy patient. He's loosened up a fair amount in the intervening decade, though now he looks way too relaxed on screen, like a colonoscopy patient coming out of anesthesia. Seriously, the guy makes Bruce Willis look absolutely full of zest in 2011's abysmal Setup.

If nothing else, though, you have to at least respect 50's dedication to the craft. as the dude even out-slimmed Christian Bale with his dramatic weight loss for a role as a football player battling cancer in Things Fall Apart. He dropped more than 50 pounds for the part, a decision which he likely regretted when the movie flopped hard and critics completely disregarded it.
