50 Cent getting tattoos removed for role

50 Cent is taking his transition from music to movies extremely seriously. The hip-hop star is working to drop 50 pounds for his next screen role — and having some tattoos removed. It’s for “Things Fall Apart,” which “Fitty” co-wrote and is producing. A source said, “He’s on tour in Europe and has already started losing the weight and is excited to begin production in May. He’s also having tattoos removed from his right arm, which will save him time in the makeup chair.” He still bears two tattoos on his back — “50 Cent” and “Southside.”
