Ernest "Jazzman" Resendes has checked in with another "heads-up" for SYLVESTER STALLONE fans:

In the June 2001 issue of InStyle magazine in the BODY + SOUL column there is a feature entitled ... ' SHAPE SHIFTERS . It talks about physically prepping for roles.

There is a section called Hall of Gain: Expanding Their Range. "When it comes to actorly sacrifices for roles, sometimes the thighs have no limit."

They list 5 actors/ actresses who have gained weight for roles . SLY is # 4.... SYLVESTER STALLONE sported 40 extra pounds in 1997's "Cop Land."

Thanks to Jazz for the tip! - Craig Zablo
