Exclusive: The real reason 50 Cent was dropped from movie…Bloggers.

50 Cent x The Expendables. Well you should know the story by now. 50 Cent accepts movie role in Sylvester Stallone’s action flick The Expendables. One day later 50 is dropped and replaced by Terry Crews. One day after that 50 says he was the one who dropped the movie so he could concentrate on his music. But we had heard otherwise right from the beginning.

Word is that Sly Stallone was very anxious to secure 50 Cent to broaden the appeal of the movie and he was so proud when 50 verbally committed to the movie that Sly went directly to Aint It Cool News and told the site. Apparently he did not get the reaction he hoped for as news spread like wild fire and the bloggers (including us) began slamming 50 Cent and Sly’s casting choice. WoooHa heard here in Hollywood that Sly was so disturbed by the immediate reaction, especially since he thought fans would rejoice, that he panicked and quickly killed the deal with 50 Cent and found Terry Crews to replace him.

The LA Times ran a separate story that confirms our findings. The paper had contacted Avi Lerner, producer on the film who states: Continue Reading…

50 Cent explains why he dropped out of movie “The Expendables”

50 Cent x The Expendables. Man this whole story line has more spin than a political convention. 50 Cent’s reps are now stepping in with an “official” statement that 50 was not dropped from the Sylvester Stallone directed movie The Expendables but rather 50 decided to drop out on his own. MTV had the full report as 50′s reps stated:

“50 Cent was offered the role of Hale Caesar in ‘The Expendables,’ however as he is currently in the process of completing his forthcoming album “Before I Self Destruct” with Dr. Dre and Eminem,” a rep for the MC told MTV News in a statement. “He was unfortunately not able to commit to the project.” Stallone reportedly told AICN hat former San Diego Charger Terry Crews, who debuted with Arnold Schwarzeneggar in “The 6th Day” and appears in this summer’s “Terminator Salvation,” will take on the role vacated by 50.

So there you have it. Hopefully this puts to rest any more issues surrounding 50′s casting on The Expendables. Unfortunatley, this is not the last of 50 Cent’s film studio problems….WoooHa.com is working on another exclusive we hope to drop by tomorrow dealing with 50 and another film project.

Pharrell busts out the McDonalds song…in a McDonalds

Pharrell Williams x McDonalds. Talk about some free publicity. Pharrell was so desperate for a McDonalds in a Paris airport to open early that he busts out in song and dance to convince the cashiers to open. Too bad he just ends up scaring them. McDonalds…time for you to ride the PR machine and give Skateboard P a lifetime supply of Big Macs.

Kid Cudi talks Reebok situation

Kid Cudi x Reebok. If you keep up on your Cudi news then you remember he had it in with a Reebok rep when he refused to wear the shoes at a concert. This led to a scuffle between Cudi, Cudi’s bodygurad and the Reebok rep. This happened awhile ago. I just assumed Cudi thought the Reebok’s were ugly and didn’t want to ruin his reputation. I was kinda right. Cudi finally talks about it in this new interview with Complex.Yes Cudi does have a bodyguard named Zule. Now where is the Gatekeeper!

Complex: So, the Reebok situation. There were a lot of rumors about you getting tasered by the police after wearing Jordans to a Reebok party. You never really addressed it outside of a blog post…

Kid Cudi: It was never about Reebok, the brand or anything like that. Nike don’t always make the dopest shoes, no brand makes dope shit all the time. I was opposed to the shoes they tried to give me—I didn’t like them. I didn’t get into because it was Reebok people, I got into it with one individual who approached me the wrong way. I’m a man at the end of the day. I’m not a fighter, I don’t like violence—hell, I don’t even know if I know how to fight. I’m not a strategic fighter, that’s not my steez. I don’t know how to work a gun if you gave me one, I wouldn’t want to fucking touch it. But at the same time, I ain’t no sucker and I was in a situation where a dude was trying to test me as a man. I let it get to me, but that will never happen again. A nigga want to test me? So what. I will never let anyone rub me the wrong way. It’s something I don’t regret at all. It was something I needed to do at that time. That dude was wrong. I reacted off of his reaction. He interfered in a conversation I was having with two other people. I wasn’t even the first one to put hands on him, my security Zule was. I tell people, he’s always close, he’s not even certified, he’s just a nigga from the hood.
