Salma Hayek, who played his co-star, acknowledged that she was taken aback by how frequently the males in the film discussed their strict diets.

She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “I’ve never heard so much diet talk in any movie, and I’ve worked with a lot of girls.

They were just so happy all the time exercising in between takes nonstop.”

Channing followed a strict diet during filming, but as soon as the cameras stopped rolling, he “went crazy.”

Channing agreed: “I was rubbing it on my face. I was just like, ‘Ahhh.’ ”
