Mick Inspires Meat

Mick Jagger was instrumental in Meat Loaf's desire to shed some pounds. Meat was so impressed with Jagger's live performances in his aging state, that he decided to quit loafing and hit the gym. Meat says,

"Jagger is buff, and he has incredible stamina...He made me go down to the gym. I'm not working weights yet, but I'm working with the treadmill."

Mr. Loaf isn't so meaty anymore either. He's lost a lot (no specific amount) of weight, but doesn't want to go too far. He's says that if he got down to "a buck-50", the "wind would blow him away."

I wonder if Scarlett Johansson's rejection or his upcoming-sure-to-fail Bat Out of Hell 3 album has anything to do with the transformation.
