When you are someone who is doing a lot of on-screen work, you really need to exert an extra effort to look fresh and flawless most of the time. This is why many celebrities invest in proper ways to look youthful while also maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle.
While this is the right thing to do, many famous people also have their fair share of unhealthy lifestyle choices. We're here to let you know exactly what they are. The people on this list are definitely blessed to be alive despite having their fair share of vices or guilty pleasures.
Betty White, 97 | Processed Meat
Betty White has been working in show business for at least eight decades already. She has remained in great shape all these years, but it seems like a healthy diet isn't her thing. She happily eats processed foods like hotdogs and doesn't care if it isn't a healthy thing to consume.
She is already 97 years today, so whatever she has been doing over the years has helped her prolong her life. Some of you might assume that she is already retired, but The Golden Girls star is actually still booking new projects to this day. Her most recent one was a voice role in Toy Story 4.
Larry King, 85 | Sweets
Larry King is widely known for the success of his show called The Larry King Show. He is still far from retirement despite being 85 already. You guys can continue to watch him on Larry King Now. The photo above shows him enjoying a cup of ice cream.
He has been having problems with his heart in recent years, so ice cream should probably be one of the things he avoids. He actually had stents inserted and an angioplasty procedure done earlier in 2019, so we hope he has been watching what he eats.
Nick Nolte, 78 | Drugs
Nick Nolte became a popular actor back in the early '90s after his award-winning performance in the movie, The Prince of Tides. He developed a drug addiction at some point in his life, but he eventually was able to overcome it.
If he had continued it until today, he might have lost his acting career or he could have gotten a life-ending overdose. You guys might have watched him on Graves in recent years. But prepare to see more of him because he has one upcoming movie and two upcoming shows.
Henry Winkler, 73 | Junk Food
Actor Henry Winkler a.k.a. "the fonz" became popular for the years he spent starring in the show called Happy Days. Consuming carbs is not a problem for him, and he would freely enjoy a slice of pizza anytime he wants.
He isn't as slim as he used to be anymore, but we don't really think he minds being bigger these days. Anybody in their 70s doesn't really want to live a boring life and have a strict diet plan anymore. Winkler can still be seen on the big screen these days and actually has an upcoming film called The French Dispatch.
Regis Philbin, 87 | Unhealthy Diet
Regis Philbin is best known for his career as a host. You might remember watching him on shows like Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee, America's Got Talent, and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? He used to eat just about anything he wanted, and this later brought him serious health problems.
Of course, he took action right away and changed his eating habits completely. He mostly eats vegetables and chicken these days. Philbin still makes TV appearances from time to time, and his last one was on The Today Show earlier in 2019.
William Shatner, 88 | High-Calorie Meals
Fans of Star Trek know actor William Shatner for playing Captain James T. Kirk. He used to be fit when he was younger. But in recent years, he has remained somewhat on the heavier side. This is probably because he loves eating meals that are high in calories.
Gone are the days when he would care if a certain dish will make him gain weight or not. He really deserves it because he has been a hard worker in show business for decades already. There is no stopping Shatner yet, though. He actually has two upcoming films titled Devil's Revenge and Senior Moment.
Patrick Stewart, 79 | Unhealthy Food
Patrick Stewart is an actor who is well-known for the roles he had in Star Trek: The Next Generation and the X-Men franchise. He is another famous person who indulges in whatever meal he wants, and it seems like a huge slice of pizza satisfies his tummy.
The photo above was reportedly taken when he and his wife got pizza after a night filled with drinking. Pizza apparently helped them soothe their hangover. In 2019, Stewart will be appearing in the new Charlie's Angels reboot. He will also be starring in the upcoming TV show Star Trek: Picard.
Jay Leno, 69 | Junk Food
Jay Leno is yet another talk show host who made it on this list. It is not a secret that he isn't really strict with what he eats, and it seems like eating junk food is normal for him. The photo above shows him enjoying his dose of pizza and chicken wings.
There are many people saying that such food makes you gain weight easily, but this really won't stop Leno from enjoying them. We don't think he really minds if he has a belly or not these days. According to his IMDb page, Leno will be appearing in two new documentaries titled One Nighters and Rodman.
Whoopi Goldberg, 63 | Fattening Food
Whoopi Goldberg is a very talented actress who has already won numerous awards over the years. Some of her most memorable performances were in Sister Act, Ghost, and The Color Purple. She never really had a "bikini body" because of her not-so-healthy diet program.
As you can see above, she can enjoy a greasy sandwich without any guilt whatsoever. We're sure many of you are getting hungry just by looking at the scrumptious sandwich she's holding. We're guessing eating good food makes her really happy. Today, Goldberg is known for co-hosting The View since 2007.
Jackie Mason, 91 | Junk Food
Jackie Mason is best remembered for the success he had as a stand-up comedian. His greatest achievement has got to be his award-winning one-man show called The World According to Me. He always loved eating good food even if it was considered as "junk".
Photographed above is him enjoying a pizza, which probably came with a lot of calories. He is already 91 years old today, so this just proves that you can still have a long life even if you're not strict about what you eat. As of today, Mason hasn't fully retired yet. He actually did voice work for The Simpsons in 2019.
Jerry Seinfeld, 65 | Unhealthy Diet
Jerry Seinfeld is popularly known for creating and starring in the sitcom called Seinfeld. The 65-year-old Jerry gets to enjoy having good meals daily thanks to the fortune he has in his pockets. He doesn't really think twice even if the meal he consumes will make him gain weight.
The photo above shows him eating a sandwich, which probably isn't the healthiest but is 100% scrumptious. Seinfeld is still full of ideas these days. According to his IMDb page, he is working on a new show called Letters from a Nut.
Kevin Costner, 64 | Ice Cream
People first discovered who actor Kevin Costner was when he starred in the movie called The Untouchables back in 1987. Since then, he went on to star in popular movies like A Perfect World, Dances with Wolves, and Field of Dreams.
The photo above is a paparazzi shot of him eating ice cream and this just shows you how far from strict he is when it comes to his eating habits. Everybody loves ice cream, but those who are focused on losing weight should really avoid it. Costner is still far from retiring. You guys can catch him on the show, Yellowstone.
Alec Baldwin, 61 | Processed Food
Alec Baldwin is an actor who is best known for the roles he had in Knots Landing, Beetlejuice, and 30 Rock. You might have noticed that he hasn't been in the best shape in recent years, and this is probably because of the unhealthy diet plan he follows.
It is very understandable that he chooses to eat whatever he wants because he is already in his 60s and doesn't really need to have a "hunky" physique. As long as he continues to book acting work, we're sure everything is fine. Baldwin is set to star in the upcoming film Lamborghini: The Legend.
Rita Moreno, 87 | Unhealthy Diet
Talented actress Rita Moreno is best remembered for the performances she had in West Side Story, The Electric Company, and The King and I. As you can see above, she isn't really the type who follows a strict diet and freely indulges in food that some may see as "fattening".
Well, she is already 87 years old, so she doesn't really need to worry about what people think about her figure. Let's just hope she doesn't have unhealthy meals every day, though. Moreno still does acting work as of today and her most recent role was in the American telenovela Jane the Virgin.
Celine Dion, 51 | Processed Food
Celine Dion is yet another famous person who doesn't mind having a hotdog sometimes. As you can see above, she will eat a hotdog from a food truck even if she is wearing a designer gown. The photo above, which she posted on her Instagram account, was taken after the Met Ball in 2017.
She enjoyed the meal after the famed celebrity ball while other guests headed straight to the after-parties. It is not every day you see someone buying from a food truck in New York wearing luxury wear from head to toe. Still active in the industry at 51, Dion just released a new album called Courage in 2019.
Lindsay Lohan, 33 | Substance Abuse
Lindsay Lohan is well-remembered for the iconic roles she had in The Parent Trap, Freaky Friday, and Mean Girls. She became quite controversial at one point because of her problems with substance abuse. This led to her having a number of infamous run-ins with the law in the past couple of years.
Fortunately, she asked for help and is in a much better place these days. She is busy with her numerous business ventures and is slowly making a comeback in Hollywood. In 2019, Lohan appeared in her very own reality show called Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club. However, it was not renewed for a second season.
Russell Crowe, 55 | Fast Food
Actor Russell Crowe first became known in the acting scene when he starred in Gladiator. His popularity later grew even more after he had starring roles in other movies like A Beautiful Mind and The Insider. He somehow looks different these days because of his weight gain.
He has put on extra pounds because he doesn't really watch what he eats and consumes fattening meals like burgers and fries. His unhealthy eating habits might have also been a result of his failed marriage with Danielle Spencer. In 2019, Crowe will be starring in a new movie called True History of the Kelly Gang.
John Travolta, 65 | Junk Food
Most of you know John Travolta for starring in popular films like Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Pulp Fiction. His acting career is still bringing him a ton of earnings to this day, but you can easily notice that he doesn't look the same as before anymore.
Aside from the effects of time, he has also gained a significant amount of weight. One of the unhealthy grubs he loves eating is pizza. Travolta probably has no time to restrict himself from good meals since he is busy with acting work. He currently has an upcoming film called The Fanatic.
Britney Spears, 37 | Drugs
Britney Spears is one of the biggest names in pop music. She grew up under the limelight and has been blessed with a career that is still alive to this day. However, she recently entered a hiatus from music in 2019 because her dad got sick.
She already got addicted to drugs at one point. But fortunately, she was able to get professional help and overcome it. These days, her "worst" habits might be drinking Starbucks coffee; since many of their drinks are not good for staying slim. Well, she deserves a good iced coffee or frappuccino from time to time since she's in great shape anyways.
Vince Vaughn, 49 | Fast Food
Some of you might see actor Vince Vaughn as a "heartthrob" even if he doesn't have washboard abs. He was never the type who pressured himself to become a hunk, and it seems like he really loves eating good food. The photo above shows him enjoying a hotdog while watching a sports game.
We don't think he cares about how much calories there are in a certain meal he consumes, and this sadly takes a toll on his figure. Nonetheless, he is still able to book projects despite not being a typical "hunk". Vaughn is currently producing three new movies.
Robert Conrad, 84 | Drinking Alcohol
Most of you probably remember actor Robert Conrad for the starring roles he had in the televisions series The Wild Wild West in the '60s and Baa Baa Black Sheep in the '70s. He had quite the alcohol problem in the past, and this already got him in serious trouble.
He was involved in a vehicle accident back in 2003, and it was later discovered that he was drunk while he was driving. Aside from the five-year probation he got, he also had to undergo counseling and was confined to his house. In 2019, Conrad appeared in Then Again with Herbie J Pilato.
Cloris Leachman, 93 | Unhealthy Meals
Cloris Leachman is well-known for her performance in the 1971 film titled The Last Picture Show, which won her a ton of awards. There was a time wherein she gained some weight because of her not-so-good eating habits. She even experienced high blood pressure and a bad left knee.
She eventually realized that she had to make a change, so she started adopting healthier eating habits. In recent years, most of you guys might know Leachman for appearing in American Gods and Teachers. She is currently set to star in a new movie called A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Castle.
Mark Hamill, 67 | Fast Food
Another fast-food lover who made it to this list is Mark Hamill. The photo above shows him leaving Smashburger with a take-out bag. He used to be very slim when he starred in the Star Wars movies, but it seems like he lost track of his weight over the years.
He can actually still slim down again if he wanted to, but that will involve a lot of time dieting and exercising. He will definitely want to watch his weight if he wants to live a longer life. Hamill will be appearing in the upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker movie.
George Clooney, 58 | Processed Food
Actor George Clooney has been a popular guy for a very long time. Most of you have really seen how his looks have changed over the years. There was a time wherein he gained a lot of weight because he didn't really care about eating right.
One of the unhealthy food he frequently ate was a hotdog, which is said to have a ton of saturated fat. Sources say those who consume processed meat a lot have a higher risk of health problems. In 2019, Clooney starred in the mini-series Catch-22 and is set to star in a new movie called Good Morning, Midnight.
Ben Affleck, 46 | Alcohol Consumption
Another Hollywood celebrity who has been sporting a "dad bod" is Ben Affleck. However, you definitely can't forget that he was a hunk back in the day. He spent years with an alcohol problem, and this really took a toll on his figure.
Not watching what he ate also didn't help the Justice League star keep his old physique at all. Fortunately, he is completely sober these days. Sources say he is also working hard to get fit again. Affleck really needs to be in the right state of mind these days because he is set to star in three upcoming films in the next years.
Richard Branson, 69 | Unhealthy Diet
Richard Branson lives a comfortable and wealthy lifestyle thanks to his success as the founder of The Virgin Group. He has a net worth estimated at around $3.9 billion as of 2019. Because of his wealth, he definitely wants to be eating only the best food available.
This is why you won't really see him being strict with himself when it comes to his eating habits. We're sure he can have steak every single day if he wanted to. Branson is also in his late 60s already, so we doubt he feels any pressure to stay slim or buff anymore.
Charlie Sheen, 53 | Drug Abuse
Most of you know Charlie Sheen for the performances he had in Two and a Half Men, Spin City, and Anger Management. It is not a secret that he had a serious drug abuse problem in the past. This could have really ruined the career he had in Hollywood.

Flavor Flav, 60 | Fried Food
Flavor Flav became popular in the hip-hop scene thanks to the success he had with his group called Public Enemy. Photographed above is him eating a piece of fried chicken.

Despite this, you will still be able to find many restaurants and fast-food chains offering fried chicken anyway. In the past, Flavor Flav actually had his own kind of fried chicken restaurant named Flavor Flav's Chicken & Ribst. Sadly, they went out of business in 2013.

Mickey Rourke, 66 | Unhealthy Food
Actor Mickey Rourke is best known for his lead roles Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man, Angel Heart, and Barfly. He is just like every single one of us because he also freely heads out for a slice of pizza whenever he feels like it.
Even if he can easily gain weight because of this, he has still been able to stay fit by hitting the gym. The Wrestler star is actually one of the few guys in Hollywood who are still buff in their 60s. Rourke recently starred in the film Night Walk in 2019 and apparently has an upcoming movie called Legionnaire's Trail.
Adam Sandler, 52 | Junk Food
There was a time when funny actor Adam Sandler actually had a nice body, but it seems like having a "dad bod" has been more normal for him. The 50 First Dates star easily gains weight because he eats junk food like pizza. He also doesn't spend that much time in the gym.
Sandler is known for his humor and talent in making people laugh anyway, so he doesn't really need to think about having abs. He starred in the Netflix movie Murder Mystery in 2019 and is currently set to appear in another new movie called Uncut Gems.
Macaulay Culkin, 38 | Drugs

It seems like the 38-year-old actor-musician was able to beat it because he is looking healthier these days. It is really obvious when a certain person transitions from a toxic lifestyle into a healthy one. Culkin recently appeared in the 2019 movie Changeland.
Matt Stonie, 27 | Competitive Eating
To be honest, with all the different kinds of food that Matt Stonnie’s been known to eat, we’re surprised to see him still in such good shape! He’s a $5-million worth competitive eater that holds numerous world records. That includes eating a McDonald’s Happy Meal in just 15.22 seconds!
He is doing great right now since his YouTube channel has just surpassed 10.9 million followers in 2020! He has been uploading videos on it ever since 2012. Matt was born in California in 1992. Meanwhile, the last record he broke was eating 20.5 chicken spiedies in just 10 minutes.

Jack Nicholson, 82 | Fast Food
Jack Nicholson is an award-winning actor who is popular for the starring roles he had in Terms of Endearment, The Shining, and Anger Management. He was never the type who would spend hours at the gym, and it seems like he doesn't mind consuming fast food meals on the regular.

Denzel Washington, 64 | Fattening Snacks

Reports say that popcorn bought from movie theaters or arenas come with a ton of calories, so consuming it regularly will definitely make you pack on some unwanted pounds. Although, it seems like Washington doesn't really care if popcorn is fattening or not. He is currently set to star in two new movies titled Macbeth and Little Things.
Sam Elliott, 74 | Coffee
Sam Elliott is an actor who has been working in show business since the '60s and has no plans of retiring anytime soon. He doesn't have strict eating habits right now, and he also loves coffee. Too much coffee is apparently bad for you because of the health risks it can cause.
Sources say that large coffee consumption can cause insomnia, anxiety, agitation, and increased heart and breathing rate. For actors, they tend to consume a lot of coffee when they spend so many hours on set. Elliott drinks his cups of joe regularly, but it seems like he hasn't had any problems yet. In 2019, he had a guest voice role in Family Guy.
Keith Richards, 75 | Drugs
Keith Richards became a very popular rock star thanks to the success of The Rolling Stones. He had a serious addiction to heroin back then, and this really brought him a ton of problems in his life. This vice of him somehow affected his looks as well.

Sean Connery, 88 | Abusive Tendencies
Sean Connery became a huge star in Hollywood ever since he started playing James Bond in the 1962 movie Dr. No. As of today, he is already enjoying his peaceful life in retirement after his last project, the animated film Sir Billi, in 2012. If there was a bad habit he had, it has got to be his alleged abusive tendencies.
He was once married to Diane Cilento for eleven years. She has mentioned in the past that he abused her mentally and physically at times. He reportedly even said that laying a hand on a woman isn't really a "big deal". Let's hope Connery isn't abusive to his current wife, Micheline Roquebrune.
Al Pacino, 79 | Alcohol & Drugs
Al Pacino is well-recognized for giving life to the character of Michael Corleone in the The Godfather movies. Like many famous people in Hollywood, Al also got hooked on drugs and drinking. He even mentioned that there was a time wherein he was too wasted at the Oscars.
