Almost everyone goes through phases where they aren’t happy with their physical appearance . As someone who just recently came from two Thanksgiving dinners — I can attest to that statement wholeheartedly.

But when you’re an actor or A-list celebrity in Hollywood, the pressure to lose weight can be staggering. Have a look and check out these celebrities who were either fired or pressured to change their weight for fame .

Back in 2014, Amanda tweeted out “Fun fact: I almost lost out on several roles in my career because I was overweight . Wrong, America.”

Can someone please tell me on what planet would anyone consider Amanda Seyfried to be overweight?

Josh Gad

Most people will no doubt recognize Josh as the voice of Olaf from Disney’s Frozen . He went on record saying that he lost over 30lbs specifically so that he’d have a more competitive edge when it came to booking movie roles.

Jennifer Lawrence

In an interview with Barbara Walters, Jennifer asked thoughtfully, “If we’re regulating cigarettes and sex and cuss words, because of the effect it has on our younger generation, why aren’t we regulating things like calling people fat?”

Chris Pratt

Before Chris became Star-Lord in The Guardians of the Galaxy , he was best known for playing the portly Andy Dwyer in Parks and Recreation . In order to secure the spot, Chris had to drop 60 lbs in only six months .

Mindy Kaling

Mindy was once offered a network sketch show about her life, and was then told she had to audition to play herself! The reasoning was that the network didn’t think that Mindy was attractive or funny enough.

Seth Rogen

Seth has maintained that his weight loss was purely for health reasons, but the timing of it all has left many people speculating whether or not that’s really the case. Seth also joked that his secret to shedding the pounds was a mixture of bulimia and cocaine.

Kate Beckinsale

Kate had an unfortunate experience working with Michael Bay on Pearl Harbour . She told Graham Norton that “I’d just had my daughter and had lost weight but was told that if I got the part, I’d have to work out . And I just didn’t understand why a 1940s nurse would do that.”

Jonah Hill

Jonah’s weight has been the topic of public scrutiny for the bulk of his career. There’s hardly a single interview wherein the question of weight isn’t brought up in some capacity or another — much to Jonah’s chagrin .

Tyra Banks

The fashion industry at large tried to tell Tyra that she was simply too big to be a model. She told Us Weekly , “Right now I’m like 25 pounds, 30 pounds heavier than I normally am, and I’m rocking it in these Nine West ads 25 pounds heavier.”

Ben Affleck

Ben Affleck became the subject of ridicule in a particularly cruel article published in The New Yorker . The writer remarked that Ben had a “pooching” gut and that his physique was reminiscent of a chubby child playing in a public pool.

Adele

When Adele wore a gorgeous green Givenchy Couture dress to the Grammys, fans and the media were less than kind. All over the internet people were smearing the renowned artist, saying that she looked like Princess Fiona from the movie Shrek .

Sam Smith

“I still feel pressured to look a certain way,” Sam told NME . “For women, the pressure in this industry is horrendous and it’s got to stop. But it’s the same for guys, even though they won’t speak about it.”

Kirsten Dunst

Kirsten Dunst and Sophia Coppola have worked together for years. But even their decades-long friendship wasn’t enough to stop Sophia from asking Kirsten to lose weight for her role in Beguiled . A request which Kirsten politely refused.

David Harbour

David once auditioned to play The Blob in one of the X-Men films. After his audition, the production team contacted him and informed David that he was simply too fat to play the character.

Too fat to play The Blob?! Come on!

Margot Robbie

When Margot was filming The Legend of Tarzan , she was told that she’d need to lose weight for the part. I don’t know about you, but I think anyone who would even think that Margot Robbie needs to lose weight ought to have their head examined — twice.
