Jack Black’s Surprise Weight Loss

June 9th, 2008

Jack Black has two reasons to be happy this week as his latest movie, ‘Kung Fu Panda’, grossed over $60 million at the U.S. box office - and he’s feeling great, thanks to his recent weight loss.

Discussing his trimmed down appearance with Parade, the funnyman joked, "When I saw my rear end in my nude scene in ‘Margot at the Wedding‘, it actually had a double chin."

Explaining that he was determined to do something about it, Black admits, "I’ve joined a gym because the next time you see me naked I’ll be trim. I want to feel good too. Now If I eat a cheeseburger and fries, it tastes so good at the time and then right after it’s like, ‘What did I do? Why?’"
