Battle of the Bulge
Super-stardom does not make celebrities immune to the plague of love handles and cellulite. True, they do have access to high-profile trainers for fitness and top chefs for nutritional meals, but beer bellies and badonkadonks happen to even the best of ‘em.
Janet Jackson was recently spotted (above) in London looking a little less than ab-licious like the smokin’ hot photo to the left. Janet Damita Jo Jackson, 42, at the height of her musical career was one of Pop’s highest paid artists. She has broken records, selling over 100 million albums worldwide and gaining worldwide fame for her choreography. The singing sensation struggled with weight as a kid, given the nick-name dunk (derived from donkey)from her brother Michael. Skinny Janet…we “Miss You Much.”
Hunky Matt Damon really beefed up last summer. Don’t worry ladies, it was for an upcoming role! The Oscar winner will surely be back to his Ocean’s 11 physique before too long. His career is littered with a bevy of box office performances. The 38-year-old has graced the silver screen in award winning films like Good Will Hunting, Saving Private Ryan and the Bourne series.
Damon is also known for his support of ONE, a campaign fighting AIDS and poverty in third world countries. He has appeared in their print and television advertising. Bring back the Jason Bourne body!
The most recent of these celebs to battle the bulge is Jessica Simpson. The starlet has caught much flack for her recent weight gain. The once buff-enough-for-daisy-dukes singer has crossed over to a new musical genre and lost her figure in the process. Simpson, 28, has achieved seven Billboard Top 40 hits, has three gold and two multi-platinum RIAA-certified albums.
She’s now trying her hand on the Country music scene with her latest single, Come On Over. Jessica, we say…Come On Back instead, to the daisy dukes that is.
