Chris Pratt jokes about his weight loss for ‘Guardians’

Chris Pratt dramatically lost 80 pounds, then replaced it with 20 pounds of muscle for his role in Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy.”

But he says those close to him were less than impressed.

“That’s what keeps it real,” Pratt told us at the movie’s New York premiere last week. “That’s what keeps your friends and family close — that they, you know, give you s–t.”

His family might not be making as many jokes about him after this weekend: Despite mixed reviews, the film was breaking box-office records.
