Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman has started piling on the pounds so that she can look convincing for her role in new movie The Reader.

The Cold Mountain actress will play a post-war seductress in the romantic comedy opposite Ralph Fiennes, and has already reportedly put on 10 pounds.

A source told the Daily Star: "She loves her new bosom, but she finds eating so much a struggle and it is making her sleepy."

Kidman will be following in the footsteps of actress Renee Zellweger, who went up three dress sizes to play the part of Bridget Jones.
