Christian Bale is known for going through major physical transformations for his character. The Batman actor gained a significant amount of weight and sported a shocking comb-over to play con-man Irving Rosenfeld in the American Hustle. However, comments by Jennifer Lawrence about Bale’s weight surprised the fans, and they called out her for body shaming.

During an ABC News special Walters appearance, Jennifer Lawrence said, “I just think it should be illegal to call somebody fat on TV. Because why is humiliating people funny”. With the statement, she urged the media to be more accountable for portraying positive body images to young women. The statement was given before she commented upon Bale’s weight which gained more eyeballs.

Amidst all the comments, director David O. Russell had confidence in his American Hustle actor. He said, “The shocking thing is that Christian can charm ladies even with the comb-over and the belly because it comes from confidence and heart.”
