The Reason for Russell Crowe's weight gain


He's preparing for the cinematic version of Jake and the Fatman

Actually Russell Crowe has a tremendous love for hot wings, chicken wings & buffalo wings. His weight is related to basically over eating fried chicken. Divorce and family problems don’t help. He also stopped working out at Equinox Sports Club Los Angeles when he is in town. He also fired his trainer who was dating the guy that I use.

I took a trip to Australia unfortunately they have the same junk food as the U.S. so a lot of people are extremely overweight there as well.

I thought it must be a prosthetic at first, Didn't look natural - but DAMN. I think his gut was real.

Dedication.

I think the first movie he did in which he gained a lot of weight was Body of Lies. He likely had trouble losing the weight as he got older.
