Matthew Fox, Madonna, Sly Stallone: Is There Such a Thing as Being Too Ripped?
I've seen more than a few stars walking around with very cut arms these days. Even Sly Stallone is still extremely, weirdly ripped. Is this a trend?
—Michael E., via the inbox
Sometimes we have trends. But sometimes we have this thing in Hollywood called "working." When a star is "working," that means they're, you know, acting. Being someone else.
And in the case of at least three big actors of the moment—Sylvester Stallone, Matthew Fox and Joseph Gordon-Levitt—that's exactly what's going on. They're bulked up for movie roles.

Oh Say Can You Sing! Pia Toscano, Toni Braxton and More Belt Out the National Anthem in Style
Singing the national nnthem has become practically a singer's true test—from American Idol alum Pia Toscano to Idol judge Steven Tyler and even Christina Aguilera, who flubbed the lyrics but still sang her brains out. And these aren't the only stars who offer their vocal cords to America's "The Star-Spangled Banner" with style.
R&B icon Toni Braxton wowed the crowd this week with her vocals (and her fine self) at the 3rd Annual Sugar Ray Leonard Big Fighters, Big Cause Charity boxing night, which benefits the Sugar Ray Leonard Foundation, at the Santa Monica Pier in Souther California.
And the Brax gets some special props...
