What 14 Celebrities Eat For Breakfast


With red carpets to walk and swimsuits to don, certain celebrities face a great deal of pressure about food, fitness and how both alter their bodies, which, unlike the rest of us, are constant targets of scrutiny from the public eye.

Every once in a while a celebrity will surprise us with a nugget of nutrition advice we can actually get behind, or a refreshing outlook on body image and what is beautiful.

While they certainly aren’t registered dietitians, we found a number of famous faces who appreciate the sanctity of a well-balanced breakfast.

We’ve collected 14 of those breakfast role models in the slideshow below. Let us know who we forgot in the comments!
