12. Chaz Bono
Chaz, the famous transgender son of Sonny and Cher, has lost an amazing 85 pounds (that’s almost a person). Chaz admitted to going under the knife, as well as switching to a diet of vegetables, fruit, nuts and meat; strictly no dairy or grains. Chastity Sun Bono or Chaz Salvatore Bono is the only child of Cher and Sonny Bono of the pop duo Sonny & Cher.
She was named Chastity Sun Bono after the film Chastity, which was produced by Sonny and in which Cher (in her first feature film) played a bisexual woman. Bono came out to both parents as lesbian at age 18.
He remembers that period in his book “Family Outing”: “as a child, I always felt there was something different about me. I’d look at other girls my age and feel perplexed by their obvious interest in the latest fashion, which boy in class was the cutest, and who looked the most like cover girl Christie Brinkley.
When I was 13, I finally found a name for exactly how I was different. I realized I was gay.” In 2008, Bono began undergoing a physical and social gender transition from female to male that was completed two years later. He explained his diet in a recent interview to “People” magazine: “Physically, my body feels just so much better. I’m in a lot less discomfort when I exercise and am doing physical stuff,” he told People. “I just have a lot more confidence, and that feels really cool.”
