Christian's Detox Hell! Beefy Bale Struggles To Lose Weight After Packing On 40 Lbs
Chubby Christian Bale is having a horrible time as he tries to get healthy and shed the weight he put on for Backseat – and it’s making his life a misery, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively!

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, fans become worried for Bale after he beefed up to play the former vice president for the upcoming flick, but the actor assured his devout followers the excessive weight gain was nothing to worry about.
