Jonathan Lipnicki bled for shirtless scene that never was

Written by . Published: June 04 2013

Jonathan Lipnicki literally bled for a role in James Caan's 2012 movie For The Love Of Money after movie bosses decided he needed to be buff and hairless for a topless scene.


The former child star, famous for his role in Jerry Maguire, worked out for four months and had his chest waxed for the role only to discover it had been cut at the last minute when he arrived on set.


He explains, "I dieted really hard... and they told me there was a shirtless scene and I showed up and there wasn't a shirtless scene.


"They even paid for me to have my chest waxed... It was terrible; I actually bled."
