I think it’s a function of people going off of superficial appearance rather than what is actually healthy or morally okay. It takes a LOT of excess muscle mass for men to start looking weird. Most male celebrities don’t approach the bloated body builder levels of weirdness.
But weight loss is different. Losing weight quickly can make you look sickly, even if you aren’t. This is especially true if you are older or weren’t overweight to begin with.
