The dilemma and crisis of middle-aged actors: men are afraid of getting fat, women are afraid of getting old

It seems that after middle-aged actresses collectively suffered "lost girlishness", male actors have also begun to enter the ranks of middle-aged crisis, and getting rich is the first step. Recently, the middle-aged actor representative Shen Teng has been frequently searched. The point of discussion is his fat body. The reason for

is that an interview video about Shen Teng was exposed on the Internet. It can be clearly seen in the screen that he has indeed been rounded a lot recently. If there was some curvature of the chin when he was getting lucky, then it is completely invisible now. The whole face seems to be fatter.

Netizens were also surprised by this sudden change. The comments were almost full of remarks such as "Years, this pig knife is too cruel to you", and someone released a comparison of photos of Shen Teng when he was still in the military art school. To tell the truth, Shen Teng's appearance back then was able to achieve the effect of filters in the era without beauty, which is indeed far from the image of "fat uncle" now. It is estimated that

was also "heart-stitched" by netizens. On the evening of September 26, Shen Teng also made a special joke, saying that he was losing weight and had eaten a few small vegetable seedlings in one day. It is indeed a daily business. Not easy.

However, even if it is a blessing, this recognized man with a smile is still enthusiastically sought after by netizens. Shen Teng can walk all the way to the present, and he has risen to today’s status. So much fat is probably because the filming needs to increase fat specially.

calculated carefully, it is not the first time that Shen Teng has been on the hot search because of the blessing. Searching on major social platforms is basically related to Shen Teng. The top three keywords must be "fat" and "weight loss". Words like etc.

In fact, both actors and actresses are the same. They usually maintain themselves in their best condition through various methods such as maintenance and fitness. But people will never be able to resist the passage of time, and the path of "middle-aged idols" is not so easy to follow. Now that "fresh meat is in power", the general environment has more and more stringent requirements for male actors. Not only Shen Teng, but other middle-aged male actors have encountered similar things more or less.

Sha Yi, who was on the hot search with Shen Teng on September 27, is a typical example.

A while ago, "Xiao Huanxi" ended with a super high pick-up rate. The cute and scumbag "Qiao Weidong" played by Sha Yi was also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Seeing him now, who would have thought that Sha Yi left when he first debuted. The line of the idol school, the scholar in "Liao Zhai" and the elder brother in "The Wrong Sedan chair to marry the opposite man" were full of youthful agility and heroism.

It's a pity that in that era, he didn't emphasize appearance and re-acting skills. Sha Yi worked hard to learn and practice himself "rough", and finally became the "White Exhibition Hall" in "Wulin Swordsman", which was well-known throughout Qixia Town.

became "Wulin Gaiden", but also lost "Wulin Gaiden". After that, Sha Yi's line seemed to be imprisoned in a comedy. It was not that he had not tried other themes, but every time I saw him, everyone would naturally think of " "Bai Zhan Tang", Sha Yi himself also successively took on some small supporting roles in the following years, it is difficult to have the opportunity to break through the acting career, until he became a "emoticon pack" in variety shows, his career had a second start. Signs.

recently appeared in "The Actors Please Get In", at the age of 41, he finally got out of the circle by acting.

In contrast, Huang Lei is much luckier.

Huang Lei was originally born in a literary and artistic film, like the elegant Confucian image in "Midnight Singing" and "April in the World", how can I ask which girl will not be impressed by it.

However, after falling in love with Sun Li, Huang Lei began to be blessed. After marriage, the "happy fat" reached the peak, and the role began to become grounded. He also relied on his good cooking skills in the variety show "Year Peng Yuchang was fattened in "Life".

It’s not that the outside world has made various ridicules and even satires about Huang Lei’s figure, but Huang Lei is very clear about the fact that he is getting fat and accepts this fact very frankly. The changes in figure are not in his life. A great influence, compared to the person who continues to work hard to maintain his "male god" and "idol", heI also feel that middle-aged people should look like middle-aged people, and it’s not bad to play some life-like roles.

Shen Teng, Sha Yi, and Huang Lei are not actors who win in the entertainment circle by virtue of their looks. As long as the market can provide them with roles that have room to play, I believe they can continue to perform.

has the previous Haiqing’s speech on “middle-aged actresses being abandoned by the market” and the recent controversy about “whether middle-aged actresses need to create a girlish feeling”. The topic of “middle-aged crisis” by actors has been constantly heated. , Especially for actresses, no matter how well you maintain or how "shen" you were when you were young, at that age the market will automatically put you in the "mother" and "mother" generation.

​But in fact, male actors will also encounter the same dilemma, but the market is more stringent for actresses, "aging" and "becoming fat" will become the subject of criticism.

Everyone encounters a middle-aged crisis, and actors are no exception, but everyone has different methods of "resolving" the crisis. They can't just rely on market regulation to passively follow the role, and more importantly, they have to settle down. To polish acting skills, good actors will not, nor should they depreciate just because they get old and get fat.
