December’s Hunk of the Month Contest
This month we take a look at UnHunks…
Now… these guys are normal quite hot. But wow -the lengths they went to for their roles were pretty extreme and the results were definitely NOT hunky. In one case it was a little chunky though 
So what do you think? Which hunk is the hottest, the hunkiest or the sexiest, despite his extreme appearance here?
Christian Bale, for his role in The Machinist, dropped from about 180 pounds down to about 120 pounds. His diet consisted of one can of tuna and an apple per day. His 63-pound weight loss is said to be a record for any actor for a movie role.
Johnny Depp portrayed two real life characters in the film Before Night Falls, one of them being Bon-Bon, a transvestite in the prison.
Jared Leto gained 62 lbs for his role in Chapter 27. To add the weight he put pints of chocolate Haagen Dazs ice cream in the microwave so he could drink them – with olive oil and soy sauce, to make sure he looked bloated enough.
Oh my… the things a guy will do for a role, huh? What do you think? Which normally hot hunk went the furthest to unhunk himself? Which one do you think is still the hunkiest, despite how far he went? Be sure to leave a comment (or two *g*) and I’ll pick one name to win a copy of Beth Andrew’s NOT WITHOUT HER FAMILY.
My choice is Johnny Depp.
Johnny Depp is so gorgeous & charismatic that he shines through no matter what the role or exterior may be.
Come, on! It’s Christian Bale, easy. He’s even got a voice that’s hunky on the ears.

but seems to be the best of this lot!!!

I have to say Johnny Depp is the sexiest out of the three options. He has always been attractive to me no matter what role he is playing.
I am going to have to go with Christen Bale on this one. I think he went to the extreme on this one. It is easier to gain weight the to lose.I am just not into Johnny Depp at all. I don’t care for his movies or anything about him.
It’s so hard to lose weight, that the fact that someone would gain it for a role is a big deal to me. Plus, I loved him in My So Called Life and he’s a rock star nowadays, so I’m going with Jared.

With all of the special effects in movies today, why do stars have to subject themselves to this treatment of their bodies? It is mind-bogglng. Of them all, Johnny Depp doesn’t have to do much to his appearance but act and it is believable.
I think Christian Bale went the farthest for the role, and possibly put his health into some danger, since he was basically on a starvation diet. Even though the actors that gained weight might have some health aftereffects, temporary extra weight (especially if it is VERY temporary)would probably have less long term effect. Besides, I think he looks about the best when he is at his normal weight!
I love Johnny Depp in just about anything but in this case I have to go with CB, taking off all that weight was extreme.
