2nd day in...

Two days and still no followers? The horror of it! I should really start to promote this blog, the more followers the get, the more interesting I will be ;)

Well today is also an event, not quite so exciting as the thrills of the tapir but, it is World day for safety and health at work. So I thought I'd dedicate this post to those actors/actresses that went to extremes for their roles, even if it was damaging to their health...

(3) Natalie Portman for her role in Black Swan

 Natalie suffered an injury during one of the ballet scenes of 'Black Swan', in desperate need of a medic. However she was told the studio could not afford a medic on the low budget they had, spending much on Portman's trailer. She insisted that the medic was much more important, and the next day her trailer was gone.




(2) Renee Zellwegger for her role in Bridget Jones

The character of Bridget Jones was created to be, lets say, a little overweight. So when Renee was cast for the role she gained, a rumoured 25 pounds (nearly two stone for us brits) just to fit the criteria. Go Bridgettttt...








(1) Susan Sarandan for her role in The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Susan (far left) whilst filming the pool scene for 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' complained that there were no toilets on set and that it was much too cold. She was told that she was being far too fussy. She later repotedly, was diagnosed with pneumonia.

Thankfully all these people have since recovered/(lost the weight), but many people dont. For more information on this day follow this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workers'_Memorial_Day

Stay Safe! <3
