Whoop, whoop, pull over that Bass too fat
Starlets are no stranger to constant weight scrutinization. Blake Lively is so paranoid she refuses to wear anything not labeled size 0 (accurately or not). Now, her Gossip Girl cast member is feeling the heat. We all saw those less that flattering pictures of Ed Westwick in Miami, obviously he’s seen better days.
MSN’s Scoop reports the costume department is fed up:
“Ed has been gaining a lot of weight — not just around the waist, but throughout his whole body,” said an on-set source. “First, the costume department had to buy him new, bigger pants. Then, his shirts and jackets got way too snug. The costumers even requested that producers talk to Ed — they don’t want Chuck to be fat!”
Update (4/10): Radar is reporting the weight gain stories are false - GG has already wrapped. Interesting to see the outrage this rumor sparked in just a few days, especially compared to the endless harassment of female stars like Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jessica Simpson.
