A delayed start. Rebel Wilson claimed that she had to hold off on her weight loss journey because of her Pitch Perfect contract.“I did wait until Pitch Perfect seemed like it was over,” Wilson, 42, revealed during the Wednesday, February 15, episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. “I couldn’t lose a massive amount of weight because I was in the contracts for that movie.”The Australian actress, who portrayed Fat Amy in the musical franchise, added: “You can’t lose, I think it’s not more than 10 pounds or gain more than 10 pounds.

You have to stay at the weight. It’s in your contract.”While Wilson wanted to slim down, she insisted that the role of Fat Amy was one she “loved” playing in all three films, which came out in 2012, 2015 and 2017, respectively.“We have the most fun on Pitch Perfect movies.

It was just awesome to play [her], because she’s just so confident and ballsy,” the former Pooch Perfect host explained. “Part of it is me.

A lot of the people say it’s not really acting, [because] it’s just kind of just, like, us hanging out. But then there was another part of me [that] wasn’t confident.”Ultimately, the Isn’t It Romantic star began her “year of health” in 2020 and went on to lose 80 pounds by 2022. “Rebel’s not working with a trainer day-to-day anymore to lose more weight as she’s reached her goal, rather she’s focused on maintaining the weight she’s lost and feeling comfortable in her skin,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2022. “She’s a really positive person and feels really good about how far she’s come.”Wilson’s weight-loss plan was something she had been “thinking about for a while” as she grew older.In order to view the video, please allow Manage Cookies“I wanted to get healthier, and I was
