You may have heard the rumors about rapper 50 Cent buying movie co-star Val Kilmer an expensive collector’s automobile. In this interview with MTV, Kilmer speaks on Fiddy’s extravagant gift and how it came about. Kilmer totally loses me with this explanation. Maybe someone can translate it for me:
It was quite shocking. It’s a 1965 Impala convertible. He knows how close I am with my kids. And it was actually cruel that he would take over as the centerpiece of their affections with an object. [Jokingly addressing 50:] You may have been shot nine times and you may be the #1 rapper on Earth, but I know where you live. I’m going to wait until you’re asleep, and you’re going to wake up screaming, buddy. He’s still got a slug in his tongue. And yet he gets up in the morning and makes a living speaking. Amazing.
Kilmer also praised Curtis Jackson’s acting skills, saying, I’d have to say he’s a better actor. He’s very effective. He’s a real genuine, kind man. He made a song for my kids.
