Rebel Wilson just keeps getting better. See all of the Australian actress’ photos, here.

Ready for some laughs? Rebel Wilson has been dishing out jokes her entire career, but her act has never gotten stale. This Aussie gem was born on March 2, 1980, and after studying drama, she delved headfirst into comedy in her native Oz. And boy, did it pay off! She got her big break in 2011’s Bridesmaids and from there, the comedic roles just kept pouring in.

Rebel’s star skyrocketed with her starring role, as Fat Amy, in Pitch Perfect the next year. From there, Rebel was one of the strongest and most popular voices in comedy. And with good reason, she’s hilarious!

Over the years, Rebel embraced a major fashion and health transformation too. The actress transitioned from dowdy dresses to full glam, stepping out in some seriously Oscar-worthy looks as time went on. Then, she shed 100 lbs with her ‘Year Of Health’ back in 2020, and has kept up the positive habits since.

Rebel’s health journey helped keep her on the right track when she welcomed a daughter in Nov. 2021. She and fiancee Ramona Agruma must be over the moon!
