Star of the forthcoming movie Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, Renee Zellweger says that she was sad to say goodbye to Bridget's C-cup breasts when she slimmed down after reaching a size 14 for the film.

Renee has since lost a staggering 20lb and although she "feels happier" at a slimmer size, she'll miss Bridget's bustier figure.

"It was a sad day when I had to retire the bra to the underwear drawer. I don't get to keep the C-cup. If I could believe me, I would," the Hollywood star said.

Men were also apparently more attracted to a curvaceous Zellweger.

She told the Daily Mirror: "I got such positive response from the fellas in my life while I looked like Bridget Jones. I had a lot of friends who said I should think about keeping some of the weight on."

However, Renee experienced a real struggle to gain the extra pounds for the role and is now much more comfortable leaving the junk food behind.

"It is incredible that ice cream and KitKats and chocolate milk and Krispy Kreme doughnuts can become unappealing," she remarked.
