Tobey getting kinda tubby

What’s worse: tabs accusing a celeb of being a heroin addict (romantic myths about suffering for art; stint in rehab; comeback movie/CD) or of being “tubby” (New York Post) and “pudgy” (New York Daily News)? That’s the word on Spider-Man superhero Tobey Maguire, who has reportedly gained some pounds. The tabs say the “lardy leading man” (Post) was spotted in Vegas by always-trim Jessica Alba, who laughed about the “Seabiscuit” star’s “huge” vastness.
