Bizarre celebrity diets that actually exist

Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala carb-cutting

Kim Kardashian dropped 16 pounds in just three weeks by cutting out carbs and sugar, sticking to clean veggies and protein. She also wore a sauna suit and ran on a treadmill to speed up weight loss, but experts warn this rapid loss isn’t sustainable or healthy.

Her extreme diet sparked controversy, with nutritionists cautioning that such drastic changes can lead to rebound weight gain and health issues over time. The quick-fix approach might work short-term but isn’t recommended for lasting wellness

Heidi Montag’s raw meat diet

Heidi Montag tried a carnivore diet that included eating raw meat and liver, aiming to boost energy. This extreme diet is controversial and lacks scientific backing, with potential health risks from consuming raw animal products.

Though some swear by meat-heavy diets, experts caution against raw meat due to bacteria risks. Montag’s approach is definitely not for the faint-hearted or those sensitive to food safety.

Joe Rogan’s all-meat month

Joe Rogan spent a whole month eating only meat and fruit, cutting out all other food groups. He claimed it helped with focus and energy, but nutritionists warn such restrictive diets can lack essential nutrients.

While Rogan praises the simplicity, doctors emphasize the importance of a balanced diet for long-term health. Extreme meat-only diets are trendy but controversial among experts.

Ashton Kutcher’s fruit-only prep

Ashton Kutcher ate only fruits, nuts, and seeds to prepare for playing Steve Jobs, but the diet landed him in the hospital twice for pancreatitis. This extreme restriction shows how celebrity diets can sometimes backfire.

His experience highlights the risks of unbalanced diets, especially when done for short-term roles. It’s a cautionary tale about pushing the body too far for a part.

Mike Tyson’s wild game feast

After veganism, Mike Tyson switched to eating wild game like moose and odd animal cuts to boost vitality. He believed these exotic meats increased his testosterone and energy levels.

This extreme pivot shows how some celebs experiment with unusual foods for health. Tyson’s wild game diet is definitely off the beaten path.

Jacob Elordi’s bacon bonanza

Jacob Elordi ate a pound of bacon daily while filming Priscilla, aiming to bulk up for his role. Despite the high fat and sodium, he credited this bacon binge for adding noticeable size.

Though it worked for his frame, such a diet is risky for heart health. Elordi’s bacon-heavy plan is definitely not your typical clean-eating regimen.

Victoria Beckham’s 25-year meal streak

Victoria Beckham has stuck to the same meal of grilled fish and steamed veggies for 25 years, according to her husband. He said she’ll “very rarely deviate” from her disciplined routine.

She later joked about it on TikTok, calling her diet “disciplined.” But a dietitian once told Insider that eating the same thing daily can lead to missing key nutrients.

Chrissy Teigen’s dorito licking

Chrissy Teigen enjoys Doritos but only licks off the seasoning, then tosses the chip back in the bag. This bizarre habit lets her savor flavor without extra calories or crunch.

It’s a strange but calorie-conscious trick that fits her playful personality. Teigen’s diet quirks prove that not all celebrity habits are about strict food rules.

Zoë Kravitz’s clay cleanse

Zoë Kravitz tried a clay cleanse to curb appetite and detox for a movie role, drinking clay and eating mainly pureed vegetables. She claimed it helped her body detox, though experts warn against such extreme cleanses.

This diet is definitely not for everyday use and can be harmful if done improperly. Kravitz’s cleanse is one of the more unusual celebrity diet stories.

Christian Bale’s machinist diet

Christian Bale famously lost 63 pounds for The Machinist by eating just an apple and a can of tuna daily. This drastic calorie cut shocked Hollywood and fans alike.

While effective for the role, such extreme dieting is dangerous and not recommended. Bale’s transformation remains one of the most talked-about in movie history.

Venus Williams’ raw vegan diet

Tennis star Venus Williams adopted a raw vegan diet after health issues, eating only uncooked plant foods. This diet aims to reduce inflammation and improve energy but requires careful planning.

Raw veganism is extreme and not for everyone, but Venus credits it for her athletic performance. It’s one of the more disciplined celebrity diet choices.

Megan Fox’s apple cider vinegar ritual

Megan Fox drinks apple cider vinegar before every meal to “cleanse” her system and aid digestion. This sharp-tasting habit is popular among celebrities but can irritate the throat or stomach lining.

While some swear by its detox benefits, medical experts say evidence is limited. Fox’s vinegar ritual is a classic example of a trendy but questionable celebrity diet habit.

Did you know that MGK calls having a baby with Megan Fox “bittersweet”? His surprising reason might break your heart.

Amanda Seyfried’s raw food diet

Amanda Seyfried tried the Raw Food Diet, eating only uncooked foods below 115°F to preserve nutrients, but ultimately found it too restrictive. This extreme diet excludes anything cooked or processed, focusing on fruits, veggies, and nuts.

While raw foodism can boost some nutrients, it’s tough to get enough calories and protein. Seyfried’s diet is a classic example of a celebrity going ultra-natural but restrictive.

Amanda Seyfried turned down Gamora because she thought it would flop. Guess who’s green with regret now?
