John Goodman's weight loss was prominently shown during an appearance he made earlier this week, and people can't seem to stop talking about how different he looks these days. While Goodman hasn't offered an abundance of information on how he's managed to lose so much weight over the years, his trainer, Mackie Shilstone, has revealed how he motivated the actor to make the change. In an interview with the New York Post, Shilstone, who has known Goodman for years and lives near him in New Orleans, recalled that just prior to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the actor had lost 85 pounds with his help.
After the devastating storm hit, he "really fell off" and gained all the weight back. Shilstone explained, "John decided that he was going to make a commitment. I’ve known John for a long time, and 85 pounds coming off and then regained, it didn’t work.
So I said, ‘What am I gonna do?'" While he didn't have any experience in acting, something Goodman was extremely well-known for at that point, he recalled thinking, "John was my friend and my neighbor, so I said to myself, ‘Let me become an actor for a moment.'" With that tactic in mind, he decided to take the "Roseanne" star to a cemetery. He brought a shovel along and led Goodman to an empty area with exposed dirt, then began his intervention. "I said, ‘John, here’s a shovel.
You told me you’re going to recommit yourself and follow this plan,'" Shilstone remembered. "I said, ‘I want you to dig your grave. Until you dig your grave, you won’t understand what it means to live.'" After that, his acting exercise became more clear: he'd decided to play the role of Death.

Ethan Shanfeld Before Paul McCartney even took his seat, he was greeted with rapturous applause and an instant standing ovation at Tribeca Festival. And, in case anyone still doubted whether he still got it, he asked the crowd politely, “I’d like to hear all the girls do a Beatles scream, please,” resulting in a shriek so loud it sent shockwaves back to 1964. McCartney joined Conan O’Brien at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center Thursday evening to promote his new book, a collection of unearthed photographs titled “1964: Eyes of the Storm.” Between 1963 and 1964, McCartney took 275 photos on a 35mm camera, documenting the Beatles’ incredible rise in Europe and first visit to America, including their historic performance on “The Ed Sullivan Show.” McCartney thought he lost the photos, he told the audience, until a photo archivist in London recovered them in 2020. Of course, the “storm” referenced in the title of the book is Beatlemania, with a young McCartney pointing his lens out from the center of it.
