It's, like, sort of a dream thing for an actor when they're told to gain weight.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are dedicated actors and there are people now who only stay famous for putting on weight, losing it, then putting it on again.
Most actors will tell you they have some sort of dream of doing something other than what they're doing.
It actually makes perfect sense why women in Hollywood get so skinny: because it's a way of controlling how people see you.
As an actor, a role can be a great excuse not to be in shape. I mean, you wouldn't want to see the Dude with a six-pack, so you eat that Haagen-Dazs. My weight goes up and down.
It's easy to gain weight when you're in the studio.
I had spent my entire career not wanting to talk about weight, not wanting to deal with it, wanting to be an actor first.
There's nothing better than an actor who is really, really hungry to show everything they've got.
Really skinny actresses make me hungry - I see them and think, Honey, you need to eat!
I hope the next actress offered millions to play the 'fat girl for the day' stops to think about this before she signs the contract - even if just to ask, like any professional actress would in any other situation, 'Why does she weigh 350 pounds? And why me for the part?' If the director can't answer these questions, don't do the movie.
It's interesting when people make comments about celebrities' weight gain or lack of weight gain as if they're a medical professional that's treating that celebrity. Like, 'This doctor does not treat Jessica Simpson, but thinks her weight is unhealthy.' If you don't treat her, then how do you know?
