Chubby Boy

Uh oh. Chubby Boy (CB) allegedly received the dreaded ‘Fat Memo’ from the higher ups. The said memo reminds talents who have gained weight that could affect how they look on screen. The five kilos (around ten pounds) usually make the talent bigger on screen than how he/she really looks in person.

CB is not new to getting a reminder. Several co-actors had to be reminded that they should take it easy on their food intake and perhaps visit the gym often. Often, the happy state, such as being in love, causes actors to miss out on keeping fit.

Sometimes, depression can be a cause of not taking time to look well as demanded by the craft. The opposite can be true as well. Looking thin can lead people to assume the talent is unhealthy or is taking substances. The point is that being in the industry has the demand to look healthy and fit. Unless someone makes money by playing roles that do care about looks and heftiness, then the actor is safe.

In the case of CB, his roles depend on looking fit. Given the importance of matinee idol looks, CB needs to get rid of the extra love handles. When CB was at his lowest weight, he was greatly admired and his projects were one after the other. Sadly, he had just come from a traumatic experience then and that was assumed to cause his weight loss. These days, CB is on cloud nine with the woman who is giving him all the love he needs.
