FUGEES rapper PRAS MICHEL is living rough on the streets for a new documentary. The hip-hop star, 33, has spent the past nine days living on the streets of Los Angeles with a hidden camera and hopes to screen his experience in the film FIRST NIGHT at Canada's Toronto Film Festival in September (06). The READY OR NOT hitmaker tells the New York Daily News, "The dollar a day (budget) didn't get me much at all. "You have to hustle, steal, shoplift or prostitute yourself. I chose panhandling. People gave me the worst looks. Like I was invisible and at the same time the worst person on Earth." Michel admits he attempted to walk into The Standard hotel in the hope of a meal, but his efforts were rebuffed by security. He explains, "I went into the Standard to get some food. I showed the security guards my money but they threw me right out, because I looked homeless and my money was in change. "I slept in the rain. My tent was stolen. I experienced how these people live. "People aren't going to understand what it was like until they see it. Human beings should not be sleeping among rats."
