Hollywood heart throb Christopher Michael Pratt was born on June 21, 1979. And despite his "soft" figure in his role as Andy Dwyer on the NBC sitcom "Parks and Recreation" (2009 - 2015), this early headshot is proof that Chris Pratt was slim and sexy even before he became famous. Pratt's character was actually meant to be temporary, but producers of the show appreciated his contribution so much that they made him an offer to be a regular on the series.
While working on Parks and Rec, Pratt gained close to 40 pounds, which he blamed on the cooking of actress Anna Faris, whom he was dating at the time. He had put on so much weight, that when he auditioned to play the role of a professional baseball player in the 2011 film "Moneybag" alongside Brad Pitt, producers told him he was too fat. Not taking no for an answer, Pratt underwent a fitness transformation that caused much sensation on social media. When he reached out to the casting director again with a photo of his new figure, Pratt won the part!
