Bryce Dallas Howard admitted recently that she was sent to a "fat camp" before filming began on Lady in the Water. Friend Natalie Portman was shocked when she heard the news, and said, "You went to weight-loss camp? But you were so, so tiny!" to Howard during a joint interview in Elle mag. Howard responded, "I went to this spa. It wasn't called a fat camp but it totally was. There was one night where I was contemplating ending my life - that's how hungry I was... I was on 30 pizzas a day when I got back."
