#9: Weigh It Out
Rebel Wilson is a hilarious and talented actress known for her comedic timing and larger-than-life personality. But did you know that even her weight was subject to Hollywood’s strict rules? According to her contract for Pitch Perfect, Rebel was forbidden from losing or gaining more than 10 pounds during her time as Fat Amy. When her weight defines her character, she can’t be messing around with diets and exercise, huh?
But let’s be real – Rebel is a star no matter what her weight is, and she’s taken a lot of heat throughout her career surrounding her weight and body. It’s as if she can’t win with the public: when she loses weight, she’s “too skinny,” and when she gains weight, well, you can imagine some of the comments she’s receiving. Why is her weight even an issue? Should we start a “Leave Rebel Alone” petition”
