Celebs Who Wore Fat Suits For A Role

Matthew Lewis blew everyone away in 2015 when he posed for Attitude in pretty much nothing but his underwear. Most fans only knew Lewis from his Harry Potter days, when he played the chubby, quirky Gryffindor Neville Longbottom, so his washboard abs threw everyone off their game. During the interview with Attitude, Lewis dropped a bombshell, saying, "I was excited I guess to go on the red carpet on the release of the last film and be me, and not to have to have the fat suit under my t-shirt." 

Wait... what!? That's right: turns out Mr. Longbottom wasn't actually a pudgy wizard. According to Yahoo, Lewis revealed during a 2017 Harry Potter panel that the fat suit actually messed with his self-esteem. "Being 15 years old in the middle of puberty, having to wear a fat suit. There's girls around. I've got this fat suit on every day," he said. "No one knows I'm wearing this damn thing, they all just think I'm fat." Trust us, Lewis: no one thinks you're fat anymore.
