We should all be congratulating Jay Pharoah! The master of impressions, 28, has been working his butt off, literally, and lost a seriously impressive 40 pounds in just a year. On top of that, he built so much muscle that he now has a completely defined six pack that we can’t stop staring at. He proudly showed off the results on Instagram:
“One more week till we shoot and I ain’t been this weight since I was 12!!! 😂😂😂😂 #whitefamous #gymlife,” Jay captioned a collage he vidstiched on September 12, showing his ripped shirtless self from the front and side at the gym, and a scale that reads 173.6 pounds. Good for him! Just a week prior, Jay posted an already incredible gym selfie, showing a body that anyone would aspire to having. But he just hadn’t hit his goal yet: “Hard work no days off!!! We film “White famous” in two weeks #Spartan #gymlife #core #planks” Jay’s been documenting his progress on Instagram for the past year, and his hard work has definitely paid off.
Jay’s getting ready to film his first high-profile project after being let go from Saturday Night Live in August 2016. His new half-hour comedy for Showtime, White Famous, follows a talented African-American comedian on the rise named Floyd Mooney (played by Jay), who’s trying to keep his credibility as he hits the mainstream, or rather, becomes “white famous.” We’re definitely watching.
