Whodda Thunk It?! 50 Watches ‘Gossip Girls’!

VIA MTV:

Initially, hearing Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson [click here to read] talk about Gossip Girl heartthrob Chace Crawford might seem unusual, but it makes a lot more sense when you remember that the duo are working together on the new movie “Twelve.”

Fif did his research on Crawford, checking out a few episodes of his teen drama. “I got a chance to see it,” he told MTV News.

Twelve — which director Joel Schumacher is shooting now in New York — also stars Kiefer Sutherland, Emma Roberts and Ellen Barkin. The film is based on Nick McDonell’s debut novel of the same name. McDonell, who wrote the book in 2002, was only 17 when it was published.

“It’s cool just to be in the presence of talented artists,” the rapper, who plays Harlem drug dealer Lionel, added about the flick, which is expected to be released in the winter of 2010. “It’s an interesting character. The dynamics are kind of exciting.”
