Celebrities Who Gained A Lot Of Weight

Jared Leto

Jared Leto is another star who had to add weight for a role in Hollywood. Leto had to gain an incredible 67 pounds when playing John Lennon’s assassin in 2007’s Chapter 27. To successfully add the 67 pounds, Leto had to eat five protein meals, and chug a couple of chocolate milkshakes a day. However, after the movie premiered, Leto was forced to a wheelchair since walking became incredibly difficult for him. In a 2014 interview, the actor claimed that the role pushed him to his limits and would be caught dead repeating such a life-threatening endeavour.
