Julia Roberts gained 10 pounds in weight whilst filming “Eat, Pray, Love” in Italy, she tells the Daily Mail today. During the film, the actress had to eat pizza in Naples and says that by 8.45 am on that shooting day, she had eaten up to ten slices.
The weight gain was planned, though, as Julia didn’t want her fans to laugh at the film and say that she could not have eaten all that food because she is so slim. Julia’s character in Elizabeth Gilbert’s book, on which the film is based, also gains weight in Italy.
Whilst some of us may be comforted by the fact that even Julia can put on weight , the extra pounds do not show on the tall, svelte star.
Have you ever gained weight in Italy?
