A Fat Suit For Bridget Jones?
Renee Zellweger has signed on for the third installment of the Bridget Jones films, but instead of famously packing on the pounds again like she did for the earlier movies in 2001 and 2004, she may just opt for a fat suit.
Oh, these poor actresses! How awful it must be to have to GAIN weight for a role!
Apparently Zellweger is concerned about how long it took her to lose those extra 30 pounds after the last film wrapped and that rapid weight gain/loss could adversely affect her body.
True, but we're not sure how authentic Bridge will look with a fake pudgy frame!
Maybe Renee is just concerned about holding on to her latest man candy, Bradley Cooper!
We're just excited for the expected return of both Hugh Grant and Colin Firth!
YUM!
Holly Gets Her Own Reality Show Too!
Seth Green Gets Bart Simpson's Old Job
her face is already bloated enough to match a fat suit
I dont blame her at all. The older you get, the harder it is to lose. At least she did it the first 2 times.
I thought she looked good in the movies with the extra pounds. She's much too thin in real life.
can't wait to see Bridget Jones 3… amazing!!!
cool that she's not putting on weight again… bad for her health (going up or down too quickly is dangerous)
My Perezcious can totally relate to the difficulties of shedding a few pounds. The Perezcious stopped dieting when it became clear that his entire body was nothing but unwanted fat.
The sad thing is her "fat suit" Will be the normal weight for most women. her face is super bloated, though!
I think if she gains 12-15 lbs and wears mid-rift padding she'll look just as authentic.

And yes, it is scary to have a weight gain in mid-30s and discovering that it is VERY difficult to lose. She's probably rich enough that no amount of money is worth the damage and work involved, so smart move. A 3rd movie could be fun, but she doesn't need to sabotage her health/well-being for it.

Gaining and losing 30 pounds is unhealthy. Also, gaining weight is NOT acting!
Pack it on toots, remember the more cushion the better the pushing!!
I enjoyed both of the BJ movies so this movie will have very high expectations. But I will watch for Colin Firth. He's sooooooo feakin Cute even if he is balding you know.
I love the Bridget Jones movies. And I too can't wait to see Hugh and Colin again!!!! Great Movies!!!
For sure it's all because she's scared of losing Bradley.. NO DOUBT
How about just doing what they should've done in the first place and cast the role with an ACTUAL plus-size actress?? I'm sure they would adore a little work thrown their way.
yeah bc she probably doesnt understand (like most of america) how she got sucha hott guy like bradley, and doesn't wanna do anythin to mess that up
I think she is WAY too thin as is, but I do understand not wanting to put on all that weight. It has got to be terrible for your health, even if you lose it shortly afterward.
Gaining 25 or 30 pounds would not kill Renee. She's underweight to begin with. Bridget wasn't even "fat" anyway - just not skeletal like the H-Wood freaks.
If she takes the time to lose it and doesn't crash diet to do so, I think she'll be fine.
No need for Renee to gain 30 pounds .. again.
So many advanced techniques and special effects available today.
It can't be good for her to gain and lose 30 pounds .. she's already
done it twice.
Go Renee. Both movies were good.
I don't blame her she looks good now.
What she needs to work on is her horrible British accent.
Yo-yo dieting like they do for these roles is not healthy. If a fat suit looks genuine I say go with it.
She could stand to gain a few pounds, her head is bigger than her body at this point. But I do understand her hesitancy to gain and lose that much weight. It's not healthy, plus it's hard to lose it when you're older.
ditto on the "yum"
Ha ha, I bought a copy of the first movie just so I could rewind and rewind the part at the end where Colin Firth says the word 'fucking'. That man can have me anytime he wants, dayum!
I wish she realized how great she looks with more weight! When she is skinny she just looks plain freaky weird… when she is Bridget Jones… just YUM!
It really is a health risk to do it so many times. I bet you would love to have to gain weight, huh?
It's very very unhealthy for your weight to fluctuate the way hers would if she opted to gain the weight naturally. If you can wear a fatsuit instead, why not?? Although, in the first instalment, Bridget claims that 135 pounds is heavy, which is absurd.
I don't really care about another one of these, but for fans sakes, fat suits NEVER look right. I can say I don't blame her for not wanting to do that again, but for all those millions, sign me up!
i thought she was more attractive in bridget jones
What bugs me is why she had to gain so much weight? The whole point of the Bridget Jones books is that she's not fat, she just thinks she is! Her weight fluctuates around 126-130lbs the entire time throughout. The films definitly dont do the books justice and I dont see where they're getting the material for a third film.
Re: Poindexter-X – almost everyone thinks so too, everyone but her… stupid woman.
How does she NOT realize that putting some weight on would make her look WAY better??!! She is probably 90 lbs NOW and looks way too thin - SICKLY thin, to be honest! Gaining 30 lbs would make her a NORMAL 120 lbs - actually, 120 lbs is STILL THIN! These Hollywood people are really nuts! I DO agree, though, that rapid weight gain/loss/gain/loss is bad for a person's health - BUT…she should gain the weight and KEEP it on!
Fuck the role, she needs to gain weight just to gain weight. Woman looks like a bobblehead and has a bad case of permanent bulimia face.
Meh, she's already ugly with a face fucked by plastic surgery,
so it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black to say she can get uglier than
the rrectum face she has already.
