Rebel Wilson Weight

Wilson has become a prominent figure in the body positivity movement, serving as a role model for women of all sizes. She spoke out about the unrealistic expectations placed on women to conform to a thin body image, particularly for younger women, and advocated for people to feel comfortable and proud of their own size and shape, without being subject to bullying or other forms of abuse (Associated Press).

Throughout her acting career, Wilson has often played characters that celebrate her plus-sized figure, such as Fat Amy. In an interview with Hunger Magazine, Wilson acknowledged that her physicality was an important part of her comedic style, and that as long as she had her current body type, she would continue to make fat jokes. Her agency signed her because they had no one else like her, and Wilson felt fortunate to have a body type that was accepted in the industry. She emphasized that being comfortable in one's own skin, regardless of size, was more important than conforming to a specific body type (Hunger Magazine).

Wilson served as a spokesperson for weight loss and nutrition company Jenny Craig in Australia in 2011, and claimed to have lost 10 kilograms since signing up for the program in 2012. However, she confirmed in 2013 that she had ended her agreement with Jenny Craig the previous year (The Daily Telegraph).

While filming Pitch Perfect, Wilson's contract stipulated that she could not lose any more weight, a decision made by the film's producers. However, she planned to resume her diet and strive for a target weight of 80 kilograms once her filming commitments were over (The Daily Telegraph).
