Shock new diet: Jason Mamoa DOES NOT look like this anymore

We can’t believe this! - by Amy Sinclair
  • 17 Dec 2018

He’s got some of the most famous abs in Hollywood - but it looks like Jason Mamoa has decided to say goodbye to his legendary six-pack. 

That’s right, the ripped 6-foot-4 Games of Thrones heartthrob - who as an ARMY of adoring female fans around the world - says that he’s officially quit dieting and working out after months of gruelling dieting and workouts for his role in Aquaman, which is now in cinemas.

Shock new diet: Jason Mamoa DOES NOT look like this anymore

And while Jason’s seriously chiselled abs are the star of the upcoming blockbuster, he now says they’re  a thing of the past. 

‘I haven't touched a weight in nine months. I'm just eating bread and butter! Every day is a cheat day!" he told E!

Say it isn’t so!

Jason says he decided to take the relaxed approach after years of hardcore dieting to stay super ripped for various roles - and being deprived of his favourite, beer. 

‘I had to not really eat as much to stay lean. I'm Hawaiian—if we eat, we just get big. So, genetically, it's hard for me to get trim,’ he told E! of getting into Aquaman-level shape. ‘You deplete yourself of carbs, so I had a harder time getting lean. I'd rather just get big.’

So getting big, means chomping away on whatever he likes! Which actually sounds pretty amazing!

But don’t fear - Jason has committed to more Aquaman roles, so his abs will be back. And he still looks pretty damn good on the press circuit, as these pics show.
