LeBLANC BLUBBERS OVER WAISTLINE!
ROLY-POLY Matt LeBlanc wants to drop at least 50 pounds after the social media sniping at his chunky figure on the “Friends” reunion, insiders said! Sources told The National ENQUIRER the 53-year-old actor was especially mortified by the stinging “Irish uncle-esque” digs. “Matt loves his carbs and big portions, and even though there was pressure to slim down for the reunion gig he just couldn’t manage it,” spilled an insider. “He’s smashing the scales at
300 pounds at the very least and it didn’t help his ego that people were comparing him to a big lovable bear. “Bear or Irish uncle, neither is flattering — and his ego is bruised!”
While Matthew Perry took plenty of shots for his slurred speech and sloppy appearance, others noted Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow looked as though they hadn’t aged a day, and the years were kind to David Schwimmer, too. While Matt’s rep insisted the actor is nowhere near 300 pounds and doubted he reads online comments, the insider shared, “Some good has come out of the trolling over Matt’s waistline. He’s hiring a trainer to work him out four or five days a week, plus he’s tossed the bad stuff in his kitchen. “A nutritionist is planning all his meals, which he’s having delivered so he’s not tempted by the sweets and bread at the grocery store. Matt’s sticking with the program so far.
“He’s telling everyone close to him that in a few weeks he’s going to come back lean and svelte — and shove all the jabs down people’s throats!”
