NE-YO TO PUT HIS LIFE STORY ON THE BIG SCREEN


After only a couple of years in the music industry, Ne-Yo has taken it upon himself to create a film based on his life story. The singer, who released his second album Year of the Gentleman just last month, compares the project to Eminem's 2002 blockbuster biopic 8 Mile, which was "inspired" by the Detroit rapper's early path toward stardom. "We are putting together the (film) right now as we speak, as a matter of fact," the artist tells Rap-up.com. "The name of the movie is Venice Beach and basically it's going to be my 8 Mile, loosely based on (my) life, but not really." I mean really, dude. Why? Anywho, like Eminem, Ne-Yo also plans to star in his film.

His acting resume includes an appearance in 2007's Stomp the Yard.
