Being a celebrity has some drawbacks, including constant public scrutiny. Fans were constantly observant of celebrities’ physical appearance, regardless of weight gain or loss.
Most individuals frequently criticize actors and actresses whenever they get the chance. Many actresses have body dysmorphic disorder and will do anything to get the perfect body due to negative comments.
Likewise, Abbie Cornish gained much online attention from fans after the release of the Netflix film Blackout. Following the film’s release, online fans wonder if she has suddenly gained weight.
Abbie Cornish’s weight gain and body transformation
Cornish was in better shape for Sucker Punch because she had to fight, dance, and wear incredibly tiny outfits. She had lost a lot of weight at the time but gained significantly over the years.
Despite gaining a lot of fat, Cornish had never felt insecure about her body. The actress acknowledged that she likes to see how her body changes as she loses and gains weight for various acting roles. Regardless of her size or shape, the actress loves her body.
In one of her interviews, she said, “Sex scenes are definitely easier than action scenes. I’m pretty unusual for an actress in Hollywood because I am totally unselfconscious about my body. I’ve never been in better shape than when I did ‘Sucker Punch’ because we had to fight and dance and wear incredibly tiny outfits.”
As she continued, she talked more about her weight loss and weight gain, “I lost a ton of weight when I was a junkie in Candy, with Heath Ledger playing my boyfriend. I was incredibly thin. Now I’m a lot more curvy because I eat what I want. I like to watch my body go up and down in size for the roles I play; it’s interesting, and I have no worries about taking my clothes off for love scenes. It doesn’t faze me at all.”
