Jennifer Hudson

Jennifer Hudson first captured our hearts when she competed on American Idol season 3 in 2007. Despite placing seventh in the singing competition, she still rose to fame, and by the age of 30 had won the Golden Trinity - a Golden Globe, Grammy, and Academy Award were all under her belt. She put her efforts next on losing weight, dropping 80 pounds using Weight Watchers. Her real-life success story of using the program meant that she was the perfect spokeswoman for Weight Watchers.

Renee Zellweger

Renee Zellweger is a serious actress, and she's not afraid to drastically alter her body in order to perfectly embody a character. For the movies in the Bridget Jones' Diary trilogy, Renee committed to the part of the British journalist who struggled with her weight by putting on approximately 20 pounds. She followed that up with toning up and dropping the pounds again for her lead role in 2003's Chicago. But whatever her weight may be, she always looks gorgeous!
