Kumail Nanjiani Says He’s Suffered Body Dysmorphia After Getting Buff For “The Eternals”
In late 2019 Kumail Nanjiani was the cause of millions of jaw drops (ow!) when he totally transformed his body for his role as Kingo in The Eternals. Dude got so muscly he temporarily became the face of PornHub’s “Muscular Men” category. A few months later, Kumail modeled for the cover of Men’s Health, and admitted getting buff had given him body dysmorphia. By the end of 2020 he experienced major backlash after posting a super-buff Christmas dinner pic to Instagram. Social media users made fun of his muscles, jawline, and accused him of abusing steroids.
In a new interview with Vulture, Kumail says the critical tweets affirmed all his insecurities and didn’t help his body dysmorphia. He says that no matter how muscly he got, nothing was ever good enough. His ideal shape? Arnold Schwarzenegger from Pumping Iron. Oh boy. Maybe he should’ve kept things realistic and gone with Johnny Bravo.
Lena Dunham Has Something To Say To People Who Criticized Her Body On Her Wedding Day
Lena Dunham got married eleven days ago to her boyfriend of about nine months, Luis Felber. The wedding was featured in VOGUE in stunning full-color display. Well, there was a lot to gawk regarding Lena’s wedding pics. Personally, the whole thing looked like a rich hipster-targeted Instagram ad for those carpet-cleaning lint removal tools (“It picks up human hair and vintage moth-eathen sweater lint!“). But that’s not what everyone else saw. Some people’s eyes zoomed in on Lena’s body, and then those same people might have decided to speak about it on social media. All that chatter about Lena’s body made its way back to her, and she’s released a statement saying she’s not ashamed of what her body looks like now.

Image description: Former wrestler-turned-extremely rich movie star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, wearing only grey shorts and a modesty penis towel, body absolutely bulging to the limits of human skin elasticity with extra-beefy muscles. But to some people, all they see on The Rock’s body is an absence of a six-pack. Embarrassing! The Rock recently explained why he doesn’t have the stereotypical washboard stomach you might expect him to. And all those body-haters can take a seat because The Rock says it’s all because of some necessary surgeries.
People Still Have Opinions About Kumail Nanjiani’s Buff Body
Last year Kumail Nanjiani bulked up to prepare for his role as Kingo in Marvel’s upcoming film Eternals. He showed off his jacked bod on the socials, was briefly the face of PornHub’s “Muscular Men” category, and graced the cover of Men’s Health. He also talked about how his transformation triggered body dysmorphia. Well, if Kumail was struggling with body issues then, his last few days must’ve been hell, cuz the Internet attacked him the moment he posted the above picture to Instagram. Twitterers made fun of his muscles and jawline and accused him of abusing steroids.
