50s, 60s and 70s bombshells who got fat in later years

Interesting stuff from a year and a half ago on some random celeb gossip forum. No pictures.

It explains whatever happened to Bridget Fonda (I know - not exactly from the time frame the thread describes but it's almost 2020 and she got her start in the late 1980s so, I think it's a long enough time). Anyway, the intrigue of the following:

She gained some weight, which is why you won't find any pictures of her from the last ten years.

She used to go to my hair stylist in LA (near the Beverly Center). She didn't just gain "some" weight. Probably at least 50 pounds. Almost unrecognizable. Good for her I say--so people won't come up to her and ask her why she disappeared from Hollywood.

—Anonymous

And as those posters and others acknowledge, no known photo of her has surfaced later than a red carpet for Taking Woodstock, which was 2009.  She had personal issues (car wreck and things unconfirmed), but the no-photos-of-her thing is weird. The Fondas are weird, but she was cute.

Lainie Kazan is one of my ATFs, a singer/actress who was never a huge star but appeared in many TV shows and movies starting in the 60s, was a top nightclub act and posed for Playboy in the early 70s. She's best known as the all-purpose ethnic middle aged mom in the 1980s-2010s: The Nanny (Jewish), My Big Fat Greek Wedding (Greek), My Favorite Year (Italian), etc. Her weight went up and down during this period, sometimes dramatically. For instance she's pretty zaftig in Love is All There Is (Angelina Jolie's first movie, fwiw) and downright svelte in The Associate, both movies released in the same year (1996).

I'd always suspected she used to be a pin-up at her prime years.
