Whenever Hilary Swank does something to radically alter her appearance on screen, she wins an Oscar. When she went all XY for BOYS DON’T CRY, she won an Oscar. And when she went all white trash butch for MILLION DOLLAR BABY, she won an Oscar. And with E! Online reporting that she’s about to pack on the pounds for FRENCH WOMEN DON’T GET FAT, an adaptation of Mireille Guiliano’s book, she may just be racking up her third Oscar. If she’s still struggling to get roles after winning three Oscars (not necessarily for this movie), she may as well just call it quits, move to Idaho and live on residuals. Her reps claim this won’t be her next film but the above report says it will so she’ll either be fat now or fat later.
