John Goodman Loses a Huge Amount of Weight!
John Goodman showed up at a red carpet event last night [above right] looking fitter and healthier than ever. He was significantly heavier as recently as October 2009 [above left, in Germany]. The 'Big Lebowski' and 'Roseanne' star turns 58 on June 20.(snip)
"when Anna Elizabeth Hartzog, at the time 19 years old, approached him during the shooting of 'Everybody's All-American,' Goodman was so convinced this very pretty college student couldn't be interested in him that he was rude. They were married two years later."
"Everybody's All-American" is from 1988 which would put Goodman at around 36 years of age. Hartzog 19, Goodman 36. Two years later they were married. That would put the new Mrs. Goodman at around 21 and Goodman at or very near 38, a 17-year difference in age.
According to his Wiki page, they're still married. He'll be 58 to her 40 or 41.

John Goodman Loses a Huge Amount of Weight!
John Goodman Loses a Huge Amount of Weight!
John Goodman showed up at a red carpet event last night [above right] looking fitter and healthier than ever. He was significantly heavier as recently as October 2009 [above left, in Germany]. The 'Big Lebowski' and 'Roseanne' star turns 58 on June 20.
Congrats on the weight loss, John! Tell us your secret!
"For almost all his life [Goodman] has also been overweight, and his acting draws on both the genuine status that comes with being big, and the stigma that comes with being fat," the New York Times reported in 1991 in a piece called 'Being the Big Guy.' "Being big can make his characters heroic, being fat can make them tragic, or at the least, give them one more cross to bear."
The weight loss has Entertainment Weekly fretting Goodman may not be able to reprise his iconic character Walter Sobchak if the Coen Brothers ever elect to pen a sequel to their cult classic 'The Big Lebowski.'
London's Daily Mail reports a photo of Goodman in 2008, filming 'Confessions of a Shopaholic,' prompted fiery controversy about his weight. Tabloid The Globe wrote a piece titled '400-lb Goodman eating himself to death,' which delved into friends' concerns about his habits.
The '91 Times piece went into great detail about Goodman's history and feelings about weight:"While Goodman is far more of a big man than a fat one, he's always seen it the other way around. He saw magazine polls a couple years ago listing him among America's sexiest men as an effort 'to taunt the poor boy.' And when Anna Elizabeth Hartzog, at the time 19 years old, approached him during the shooting of 'Everybody's All-American,' Goodman was so convinced this very pretty college student couldn't be interested in him that he was rude. They were married two years later."In 2009, during a New York City theater stint, Goodman said alcohol -- specifically Jack Daniels -- nearly ruined his memory. "I had a 30-year run, and at the end I didn't care about anything," he told the New York Times of his drinking. "I was just fed up with myself. I didn't even want to be an actor anymore."
Goodman finds all praise of his dancing and grace insultingly condescending. 'Yeah, for a fat guy,' he says when complimented about it. 'Right, like watching the elephants in 'Fantasia,' and those hippos in their tutus. It's sad but true. A fat guy that moves around like that doesn't think of himself as primarily a fat guy moving around like that. He's just a guy trying to find the groove like anyone else.'"

Good on him.
I don't want him to pull another John Candy.

Or Chris Farley.
In early 1997, a decline in Farley's health was frequently noted in the press. Following his guest appearance on SNL for the last time on October 25, 1997, his hoarse voice, continual perspiration and flushed skin were the subject of public scrutiny. In the years before his death, Farley had sought treatment for obesity and drug abuse on seventeen separate occasions. On December 18, Farley was found dead by his younger brother John in his apartment in the John Hancock Center in Chicago. An autopsy later revealed that Farley had died of cardiac arrest caused by an overdose of a combination of cocaine and morphine early that morning. Advanced atherosclerosis was cited as a "significant contributing factor". His death is often compared to the death of John Belushi, a comedian and actor who, like Farley, was a member of The Second City and starred in Saturday Night Live, and who died aged 33 of a drug overdose involving cocaine and opiates.

Yeah I saw him in the last episode of Treme and he was laying on a bench just pouring off of it like Jabba the Hut on a pallet jack......
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
