Kevin Bacon Punks Twitter Followers With Fat-Face Pic
Philly-bred star Kevin Bacon punked his Twitter followers this week when he posted this photo of himself with a double chin and noticeably plumper cheeks:
Greetings from the UK! pic.twitter.com/YGX5HgoGFC

He didn’t allude to his new fuller figure, instead he shared a simple “Greetings from the UK!” His followers went to town, though, tweeting funny things like:
@kevinbacon you need to stay off the bacon and maybe be Kevin salad for a change

and
@kevinbacon Doppelporker

In fact, according to the DailyMail.com, the look is completely prosthetic, but no one knows why. One fan speculated that he was shooting another commercial for U.K. mobile and television service company EE. In previous EE advertisements, he’s famously poked fun at himself and the whole “six degrees of Kevin Bacon” phenomenon.
