Your Opinion Needed: Too Fat? Too Thin? Too Muscular? (Bro Version)

A while ago I solicited some opinions from the brain trust known as the Diet Blog readership, regarding female celebrities and body types. It was very interesting to hear the variance of opinions.

Once again I am asking for your feedback on the following male celebrities:

  • Do you find any of these men too fat?
  • Do you find any of these men too thin?
  • Too muscular?
  • Which physique would be considered closest to your ideal (guys?)
  • Which physique would be considered closest to your ideal (ladies?)

I'm looking for feedback from both men and women on this one.

It's a good bet that men can get away with being on the heavier side more-so than women. But, I'm curious to see how opinions contrast from the female version of this quiz.

From left to right: Kevin James, Jake Gylenhaal (Bulky) Jake Gylenhaal (thinner), George Clooney, John Cena (WWE wrestler), Leonardo DiCaprio, Marc Anthony, Russell Crowe, Skip Lacour (natural body builder), Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Vince Vaughn (Swingers Days), Vince Vaughn (nowadays).

Best in there is Jake Gyllenhaal (muscular) but beyond that none really jump out at me as being bad just different.

In case it's not obvious, I'm a female...

Skip and John Cena are too muscular for me - it's intimidating. Marc Anthony is definitely too skinny.

Philip Seymour Hoffman is too heavy and Kevin James is a bit too. But I'm more likely to overlook heaviness (to a point) if the guy has a great personality.

Vince Vaughn swinger-days or George Clooney would probably be my ideal, as far as physique is concerned. All the rest I'm ambivalent about.

There are few overweight guys in there but not obese.

Jake (thin), Leonardo & Marc are too thin to me.

Jake, muscular is pretty good.

John & Skip look good as I like muscle but for me, I prefer a bit less.

Saying all that, I don't choose a guy based on this though.

I tend to find leaner/slimmer guys more appealing in general--probably because I'm a woman who bulks pretty easily--but more than anything, I like what looks healthy and natural on the person's frame.

Kevin James - too fat
Jake Gylenhaal (bulky) - too muscular/bulky
Jake Gylenhaal (thinner) - fine. Maybe a touch more body fat would be good.
George Clooney - fine. Could tone up a bit.
John Cena (WWE wrestler) - too muscular/bulky
Leonardo DiCaprio - fine. Could tone up a bit.
Marc Anthony - way too skinny! He looks unhealthy.
Russell Crowe - He looks overweight, but could just be an unflattering pose.
Skip Lacour - too muscular/bulky
Phillip Seymour Hoffman - too fat
Vince Vaughn (Swingers Days) - fine. Probably an ideal for me.
Vince Vaughn (nowadays) - too fat

I just like "normal". Di Caprio is fine. Vince Vaugh is fine either way. A bit chubby is fine for as long as he is healthy.

Kevin James- Fat.
Jake Gylenhaal- He looks better when he's leaner, but I wouldn't mind either ways - hot.
George Clooney- Normal, average.
John Cena- Muscular, but not overly so. Shows how much he cares about his looks and physique. Hot.
Leonardo DiCaprio- Average.
Marc Anthony- Average, skinny but not too skinny.
Russell Crowe- Yucks, unhealthy.
Skip lacour- Too muscular.
Phillip Seymour - Overweight.
Vince Vaughn- Looks awesome before, fat now.

That's my opinion... I think men look better when they're toned and a little more muscular than when they are 'soft' and pudgy.

I'm a female, so you can take that into account:

Kevin James- A little bit too fat for my tastes
Jake Gylenhaal- Looks good both ways, but seems more muscular in the first pic. I prefer the thinner version.
George Clooney- Pretty average; good for an old guy.
John Cena- Muscular with big arms...I have a weakness for guys with huge guns, so I think he's pretty hot.
Leonardo DiCaprio- Average.
Marc Anthony- Kind of on the skinny side, but not bad.
Russell Crowe- Fat in a gross, drinks-too-much-beer kinda way.
Skip lacour- Muscular, but he looks really good. Not overly veiny or weird.
Phillip Seymour - Too much of a belly.
Vince Vaughn- Used to be average/muscular, now he's pretty pasty and mushy-looking.

I prefer guys to be bigger; skinny guys are a turnoff for me, but I like guys that aren't just "fat", but "husky"...I'd prefer someone with Kevin James' physique to someone like Philip Seymour Hoffmann.

I'd bet anything that Skip is no natural, or at least didn't build that foundation without drugs. Nobody gets that big while also staying that lean without chemical assistance.
