Rotund funnyman Jack Black recently admitted to reporters that he eats two breakfasts a day -- no wonder he was told he's too big for Bergdorf Goodman! But don't be too quick to assume that he's filling up on bacon and eggs. His breakfast choices sounds kind of healthy: "My new thing is that I have oatmeal and ice green tea for breakfast," he says. "Then I have a second breakfast! I try to eat foods that give me energy to try to make it through the day."

Still, he adds that losing a few pounds isn't easy: "I try and work out but it's a losing battle with the fine food and good red wine that is available." As for fitness? "I do some special stretches, sit-ups and sometimes even some push-ups. But I think a good walk down the street is great workout."

Well, it's a start, I guess. But maybe Jack needs to add a few of these morning moves to his routine to help matters along.

Funny man Jack Black dressed up in a well-tailored tuxedo the other night and attended a black-tie gala in honor of pal Ben Stiller. The whole experience -- well, the suiting up part -- was both hysterical and humiliating, says the big guy.

First of all, Jack hates to dress up. "I was going to say screw it," he reports. "I was just going to wear my jockies and trench coat." But he followed suit after deciding he better look the part since he'd be sitting next to the sharp-dressing Robert DeNiro and P. Diddy. So, off to Bergdorf Goodman he went, where he was greeted with this comment from the sales lady: "Your neck ... it's too big. It's too big for this store! I'm sorry Jack Black, but you might want to go to Big and Tall."

Ouch. Black became flushed with shame and marched off to, yes, the Big and Tall store. "I was welcomed with loving open arms by my people," Black reports. No mention of any plans for trimming down. Perhaps the star is happy with the skin he's in.

Alicia Keys is super excited to see the sun for the same reasons we are -- she loves getting active outdoors. When the musician isn't camped out behind her piano or deep in thought writing a new hit, she says, "I like to do outdoorsy things. Hikes, trails, running, swimming. I love the sun. I'm all about the warmth."

Mariska Hargitay put down the Pringles and chocolate and found something new and healthier to crave -- tropical fruit.

Britney Spears is rumored to be trying a new diet to slim down -- the Victoria Beckham diet, which starts the day with water and lemon. Mmmm, satisfying.

Jack Black might not be the laughable, lovable lug we've come to know for long. No doubt he'll remain laughable and lovable, but the comedian decided it was time to lose some weight after seeing his bare tush on the big screen in Margot at the Wedding.

I can see where that would be some motivation.

Anyway, Jack has joined a gym and is cutting down on fast foods. Though a big part of the priority is to look better, he's interested in health as well, saying "I want to feel good too. Now, if I eat a cheeseburger and fries, it tastes so good at the time and then right after it's like, 'What did I do? Why?'"

Now, as a father of two, I'm sure health is more important to him than ever, so I'm going to wish him all the best on his new, healthy lifestyle.
