"It wasn't easy. It's a lot of hard work," pro wrestler Dwayne Johnson told USA Today of bulking up to play a bodybuilder in Pain & Gain opposite Mark Wahlberg. The actor said his added muscle appeared much larger on the big screen than it really was. "Onscreen, that small amount of extra pounds translates to 50 pounds, making my character look like an 800-pound silverback gorilla just released from jail."

"Lots of good flavors you can add without adding too many unhealthy fats."

"I like to jog and I try to focus on floor-based Pilates to strengthen and lengthen," the super-fit Extra cohost (showing her midriff in a Twitter snapshot) tells Us. "I'm not someone who carries any kind of serious routine. I try to keep a healthy attitude about it. I deal with whatever it is. The most I will do before a beach trip is run a few nights before."

No stranger to posting selfies on social media, Cyrus flashed her abs in a Twitter picture, which featured her in a bra top and studded leather jacket. In a recent interview with Elle U.K., Cyrus claimed she doesn't want to oversell her sex appeal. "A star is someone who doesn't have to take her clothes off to be sexy because you naturally have star power," she told Elle. "Sex does sell, but you have to find a way that's not just showing your tits. I don't want to be a glorified model."

As long as they're talking about Nicki Minaj, I'm good."
