Seth Rogen: Health Concerns Motivated Him To Lose The Weight

Filed under: Film Flickers > Seth Rogen

As we've mentioned before, funnyman Seth Rogen has been losing weight and getting in shape.

And it's really paying off!

Rogen, who's currently prepping for his lead role in the Green Hornet film, spoke out about his decision for dropping the weight during a recent interview.

Seth reveals he decided it was time to shed the fat before he even started shooting for his latest flick.

Apparently while he was filming in New Mexico for Observe and Report, that's when he realized he needed to improve his health.

Seth claims "I'm somebody who can barely breathe in Los Angeles, which is at sea level. I can't walk up a flight of stairs. Albuquerque is at an elevation of about two miles and the air is very thin. There were some big action scenes. Every day it felt as if I were climbing Everest. So the stunts were really hard, much harder than they should have been. I realized if I was going to make Green Hornet I needed to lose weight."

But Seth didn't do it just to look hot. He says, "Aside from how the character is supposed to look, I couldn't physically make the movie in the shape I was in. It would have literally killed me."

We're sure what he really meant was "I lost the weight to get laid!"

Either way, keep up the good work. We want to see that sexy six pack by the end of the year!

      what Mario means is he, himself is loosing weight to try and get laid.



    3. 3

      he needs to STOP right where he is! he's getting too skinny, he looks effing hot now, but too skinny means he loses his charm!



    4. 4

      i actually really don't want to see a six pack on him!!! i think the weight he is now at, is super sexy. in the real world, you can still be healthy and not have crazy abs! and i think he kinda represents that right now, cuz he is super fucking hot.



    5. 5

      he looks so good when he is skinny!



    6. 6

      He previously said that he had to lose weight for the movie and was worried he was being a sell out. I guess his publicist told him to start saying this instead.



    16. 16

      he is not hot. what the fuck have ya'll been smoking…….



    17. 17

      Lol, I'm quite sure he didn't need to lose any weight to get laid. Even when he was chubby he was adorable.



    18. 18

      I'd hit dat, skinny or fat. Just don't shave that hairy butt.



    19. 19

      i'd like to attend this health 'concert'…



    20. 20

      i think he's hot, but he needs to stop losing weight now. of course, i like "my men" to have some meat on their bones :p



    21. 21

      You suck!!!



    22. 22

      OK….Perez….you really need to use spell check!! I have noticed so many spelling mistakes recently, that's all I focus on…being an english major I can't help but critique your slopiness…it takes away from your sparkling image!!!! I'm sure there must be other people bloggin' for you and they just aren't paying attention…tell your crew that spelling is a do or die thing!! It makes or breaks you in the media world - are you from the Bijou…Weez ate us sum Alleegaters….



    23. 23

      WOW THIS FATASS LOSER LOOKED ALMOST AS BAD THEN AS MARIO DOES NOW.



    24. 24

      yeah some other fatass should take a clue and be inspired… maybe then he wouldnt have to rely on poor abused teddy for his sex life… VILE EVIL TOAD!!!



    25. 25

      His Movie is fucking awesome!



    26. 26

      Do you think if you cut off your head you would lose 100 pounds?



    27. 27

      Re: Spindoc – I heard that too. He said he was turning into a guy that he and his buddies would rag on.



    28. 28

      Don't you mean "concerns;" dumbass? Jesus H. Christ, what is wrong with you today, Mario?

      Seth was a cutie when he was chubby, I just wanted to pinch his cheeks, but now, he looks amazing!!



    30. 30

      What's a Health Concert? Oh, right — too lazy and stupid to catch the typo AGAIN. I think you might be SHOCKED to know the real number of big mistakes that are made in your name through sheer laziness and probably lack of education by you and your staff. It's worse than a high schooler's blog.



    31. 31

      Everyday the typos get worse and worse. I think typos are gross just like you, Perez, think smoking is gross!!!!!!!!!!!!



    32. 32

      so hot! i would do him!! call me seth :-)



    33. 33


    34. 34

      Its good that hes doing it for his health but enough with the weight loss now. I love a big man



    35. 35

      Why did you post a fat picture of him? That's not showing us how good he's been doing!



    36. 36

      seth rogans hot either way.



    37. 37

      He's had a girlfriend for a while, you fat tool.



    38. 38

      Mario, since you aren't capable of seeing it on your own, consider this as your intervention. We have been concerned about that tumor on your head. Your head is freakishly large and you really should seek some medical attention. You never know, you may be featured in the medical journal someday! Just think of all the attention you could get then, and the new "Twitter" friends!!!!
      I'm just sayin', consider it, your head is not the normal size and it's not because your uber intelligent!!! (Those pesky health concerts!)



    39. 39

      um is there something wrong with me becuz i think he looks FINE in the above picture just the way he was I mean, like seriously my jaw would hurt by how fine he looks right there…



    40. 40

      what is his secret, too much bj from gays?



    41. 41

      what an ugly fatass he is



    42. 42

      SEXY SETH



    43. 43

      Albuquerque's elevation is a little over a mile high–not two miles like he said.



    44. 44

      i think seth rogan suits the chub!!



    45. 45

      umm. . he doesn't need to lose weight to "get laid," he has a girlfriend, who i'm sure takes care of that. . that being said, i think he looks great, i always thought he was adorable though



    46. 46

      I'd fuck him skinny or chubby! Seth…call me :)



    47. 47

      Seth lost weight so he could smoke more pot.



    48. 48

      Rogen's Green Hornet will FLOP. That's the bottom line. Congrats on the weight loss though…



    49. 49

      aw im so proud of seth



    50. 50

      ..maybe he shoudl stop smoking the weed. I think that has alot to do with getting winded while walking up the stairs. lol……but morepower to the man if he wants to shred the lbs!



    51. 51

      seth is a god. chubs or lean… giddy up!



    52. 52

      It is the strangest thing, my sister's boyfriend looks JUST like Seth Rogen! And they even started to lose weight at the same time! :O
      But one lives in the US and one in Sweden so I guess it's not the same guy…but it's CREEPY!
