Everyone knows that it's next to impossible to make in Hollywood. The competition is fierce, and getting work is all about looking the right way, sounding the right way, and being at the right place at the right time. That being said, it's pretty remarkable that an actress like Gabourey Sidibe has come as far as she has. She's unconventional, unexpected, and has already achieved more than many young starlets do in a lifetime. Of course, one of the issues that constantly surrounds her is her weight. Though Sidibe is proud of her body, people can't help but comment on it -- and sometimes, the commentary is just plain mean. Still, it seems to roll off her back and she continues to be unbothered, but she's begun to take her health into consideration. She's gone through a bit of a transformati...
