At an early point in his career, Jack Black was somewhat amusing. But his shtick got old after the first twenty minutes of High Fidelity, and lately he’s been approaching Andy Dick levels of attention-whoring dickishness. His obnoxious antics at the Kung Fu Panda premiere were bad enough, but now the tubby little funnyman is threatening to do more nude scenes. Although, to be fair, if he follows through on his plans there’ll be less Jack Black to see:

“When I saw my rear end in my nude scene in Margot at the Wedding, it actually had a double chin. I’ve joined a gym because the next time you see me naked I’ll be trim.”

The prospect of seeing Jack Black naked actually makes me nostalgic for the days when Harvey Keitel was doing full frontal. In fact, Jack Black nudity is such a surefire non-crowd-pleaser that you have to wonder if there’s some sort of concealed blackmail threat here. If that’s the case then get this man more voice-over work, stat.
