50 Cents Shocking Weight Loss Photo

50 Cent looks like he's falling apart for his new film.

The Queens rapper shed nearly 60 pounds to play a football player who has been diagnosed with cancer in the upcoming Mario Van Peebles film, "Things Fall Apart."

Fitty, who normally tips the scales at 214 pounds, released a photo of himself this week at a frail 160.

The "Strong Enough" singer says he lost the weight by going on a liquid diet and spending three hours a day on the treadmill for nine weeks.

"I was starving," 50 Cent revealed on his official Web site, thisis50.com. But on the eve of his "The Invitation" tour, the aspiring actor has been gorging.
