Christian Bale has a buff body. I admit it. There’s been controversy that he took steroids to bulk up for his American Psycho and Batman role.

“I was lifting really heavy weights that I could never dream of lifting now and probably never will again. A number of people have said, ‘You could never have done that without some kind of steroids.’ Not to say I wasn’t tempted,” Christian confessed. “When I was getting ready for ‘American Psycho’ I’d never been in a gym in my life and I was working out like crazy, so I thought, ‘Maybe it ain’t such a big deal, just take some ‘roids’ and I can speed up this whole process.’”

Christian said that he was easily deterred when he went to actually get the steroids and they warned him that there might be some bad side effects.

“I called up the store where they’re selling that sort of stuff and asked, ‘Have you used it? And side effects?’ ‘No no. I mean, really minimal. Your balls might shrink and you might get acne.’ I’m like, there’s no way in hell I’m going to touch anything like that and damn those who think I did.”

I think that’s so cute that he would think about how his balls would shrink. I think many of us are happy that he didn’t go through with it.
