Bad boy rapper, 50 Cent says his mentor, “Stan” star, Enimen makes his life hell by constantly tormenting him.

50 Cent, real name Curtis Jackson, turned to the singer / actor for acting advice before shooting his auto-biographical film, ¡Get Rich or Die Tryin”, but his friend used his plea to ridicule him.

50 said: “He¢s not a big help for me. We¢ve become such good friends that he¢ll take advantage of opportunities to make me uncomfortable for a moment.

“Like, he¢ll call and go, ¡Yo, they told me you¢re doing a film.¢ I said, ¡Yeah. They told me they thought it¢d be a good idea if I did one based on my life, because you did ¡8 Mile¢.¢

“And he said, ¡You¢re going to hate it, you¢re going to be there for eight hours every day. Then they¢re going to expect you to make amazing songs in between each cut!¢

“He made it sound like hell!”

50 - who set to release his third album ¡Curtis¢, after his real name Curtis Jackson - also believes Hollywood is starting to wise up to his box office appeal.

He added: “I think they see me initially. I¢m 50 Cent, and the interest that¢s raised through my music draws my fan base to the box office. That¢s what makes some film companies feel likes it¢s a good idea to put 50 in.

“But when you deliver a good performance, they start to see other reasons to actually involve you in projects.”
