Middle Age Hollywood

Hollywood starlet Renee Zellweger isn't keen on packing on the pounds again for the third installment of a "Bridget Jones" film after producers have told her she needs to gain 30 pounds on her svelte figure. Zellweger, who was recently seen at the Berlin Film Festival with a mysterious "bump" in her midsection, is trying to persuade producers to downsize her character Bridget to look more like her.

Internet rumors are reporting Zellweger fears that plumping up to a zaftig everyday woman might put a strain on her relationship with boyfriend and Hollywood heartthrob Bradley Cooper. The actress blames the demise of her previous relationship with Jack White of the White Stripes due to her having to gain weight in the first two Bridget Jones installments.

Previous reports say that the Texas native has even suggested wearing a fat suit while filming the third film, which she has denied.

According to Zellweger's IMDB page, an untitled Bridget Jones production is currently in development.
