50 Cent ‘Things Fall Apart’ premiere or how I learned of @vibemagazine ‘s @popchips addiction
Earlier this week I hit up an advanced screening of 50 Cent’s Things Fall Apart. Starring 50, Lynn Whitfield, Ray Liotta, and Mario Van Peebles (who also helmed the project), the film tells the story of a football star (50) stricken by cancer. I realized about halfway through the film that it was shot in Grand Rapids, Michigan (whattup 646?!).
The good folks at NR have video from the screening, which was also attended by DJ Pauly D, Maino, Floyd Mayweather, Carmelo Anthony, Ryan Leslie and Jimmy Jones.
Aside from the film, perhaps the most interesting part of the night was the truly monstrous amount of PopChips consumed by the Vibe homies J Hall and JFK. Guess you can’t just pop one bag eh?
