Rebel Wilson is opening up about the way people started treating her following her weight loss.
In an exclusive interview with People and ahead of the release of her tell-all memoir Rebel Rising, the actress discussed the beginning of her "year of health" during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, she says she slowly lost weight in order to "drastically change" and eventually harvest her eggs.
(Wilson welcomed a baby girl on Nov. 7, 2022, via surrogate.)
“I was getting quite a lot of attention for the weight loss,” she told the publication. “I thought: ‘Gosh, people are so intrigued by this.’ Literally, I got more attention for weight loss than any movie I'd ever done.”
The Pitch Perfect star went on to say that while she knows "that's superficial," it "was nice" to receive the attention.
