Lola Luv Starring in Flick With 50 Cent

Hip-Hop model Angel “Lola Luv” Fershgenet is furthering her career in film with a co-starring movie role with G-Unit front man 50 Cent.

Fershgenet confirmed her work with the rapper during a recent interview with Blok TV.

Although she didn’t specify details surrounding the project, the model/actress revealed that the feature, titled “Before I Self Destruct,” is being produced and directed by 50 Cent, who also stars in the movie with Clifton Powell.

According to Fershgenet, the movie will be released “probably by the end of this year.” “Before I Self Destruct” is one of a string of projects on deck for Fershgenet.

In addition to modeling, the rap video fixture is embarking on a career as an artist in the world of music.

When asked to describe her foray into music, Fershgenet stated that she would pursue rapping rather than singing.

“I got too much swagger to do anything else anyway,” she said smiling.

Fershgenet’s new rap ambitions comes after her first film “Crazy Like a Fox,” debuted earlier this month at the 12th Annual American Black film Festival (ABFF) in Los Angeles.

Although she doesn’t have a single coming out right now, Fershgenet did confirm that fans will get a musical offering from her before the end of the year.

“I’m working on my mixtape….I’m doing it all. I’m versatile,” she said, “So definitely doing it all. Modeling, acting, music. All.”

In addition to working with Fershgenet on “Before I Self Destruct,” 50 Cent will be seen alongside big screen icons Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro in the upcoming film Righteous Kill, which is slated to hit theaters on September 12.
