The same government standard responsible for telling us that 65 percent of Americans are "overweight" or "obese" classifies this hunk as a chunk. Pitt, who plays an assassin-for-hire in his new flick, has been gunned down by the Body Mass Index (BMI), a measurement that separates us into government-approved and officially fat categories by taking into consideration only our height and weight. A BMI of 25 or more makes you overweight, and a BMI of 30 or more makes you obese. At a reported six feet tall and just over 200 pounds, Pitt's BMI is a pleasantly plump 28.

Pitt, of course, is not alone. Take his Ocean's 12 co-stars, Matt Damon and George Clooney. They're also "overweight."

And from the big screen to the big game: Superstar NBA player Shaquille O'Neal is considered "obese," while basketball's LeBron James, baseball great Alex Rodriguez, and U.S. swimmer Gary Hall Jr. are all officially "overweight."
