Actor Chris Noth says he was asked to lose weight for his character in the romantic comedy movie "Sex And The City".
The 58-year-old essayed Mr. Big in the movie and was paired with actress Sarah Jessica Parker.
"When we were doing the movie of 'Sex and the City,' Michael Patrick King came up to me and said, 'Listen, dude, we're not calling you Mr. Big because of the size of your stomach, so go lose that before we start shooting'." huffingtonpost.com quoted Noth as saying.
