Actress Rebel Wilson has been having an amazing 2021!
The “Pitch Perfect” actress lost 77 pounds during her year of health and told Today that she hasn’t gained any of the weight back. In fact, she admits that she lost “a few extra pounds” without even trying to!
"It is weird because I haven't been trying to, it's just that the lifestyle habits that I did last year have kind of become ingrained," Wilson explained. "So it's good. I think I'm a little bit shocked because I was worried. I think everybody who's struggled with their weight has at times (felt like that) ... I've managed to maintain that for almost a year. It's just all those lifestyle habits changing."
Now, Wilson is ready to say goodbye to 2021 and see what 2022 has in store for her!
Rebel Wilson: ‘Peace Out For 2021’
Wilson began her goodbye to the year by saying, “Peace out for 2021. What a year!”
“It started in LA with POOCH PERFECT for ABC - bringing me back to my roots of growing up in a dog showing family and selling dog products out of a yellow caravan at dog shows,” she continued. “Thank you to everyone who was a part of this experimental, sentimental, inclusive show that celebrated dogs and the people who love them.”
“THEN it was off to the UK to film THE ALMOND & THE SEAHORSE with a dream cast of European actors and where I play a very different role to what you guys are used to seeing me in…” she shared. “I’m so excited to get back to dramatic acting with this film about traumatic brain injury and showing you guys even more of my serious side in the future.”
“The UK is my ancestral home and I always feel at home there and love working there with all the brilliantly talented artists who I adore and respect,” she added.
“THEN I journeyed to Atlanta to film SENIOR YEAR, the huge cheerleading comedy for Netflix which is coming 2022 to spread so much cheer and heart,” she continued. “I’m so proud of my talented cast and crew on this one - it’s such a funny and heartwarming movie that I’m pumped to share with you!”
“THEN I left to Rebel Island to celebrate my belated 40th birthday, which was literally the best week of my entire life,” she shared. “You have to celebrate - life is short and you just have to love and live it.”
Rebel Wilson Named In BBC’S Top 100 Women For 2021
“I shot some great campaigns for @ollywellness @afterpayusa @tourismfiji and am a proud ambassador for the LA Rams whom I hope get to the SuperBowl this season!” she continued.
“It was also a huge honor to be named in BBC’s list of Top 100 Women for the year amongst absolutely extraordinary women,” she added.
“Up next is the challenge of co-directing my first movie, GIRL GROUP, which I’ve also written and am producing,” Wilson revealed. “We’re currently getting a world class team together for that baby with Lionsgate. It’s massive and musical and hopefully will fill that PITCH PERFECT space that I know you guys love and miss!”
“Speaking of love, thank you everyone for being on this epic year with me!” she concluded. “I love you guys. You know how I’ve been theming my years for the past few years? Well this year was the The Year of The Rainbow… after the storm always comes the rainbow.”
