Craig Robinson makes headlines with new look at Critics Choice Awards

Craig Robinson sparked buzz on the red carpet at the 31st Critics Choice Awards in Santa Monica on Sunday, notably for his striking weight loss transformation. 

The Office star arrived in a tailored maroon suit, showcasing a visibly leaner physique that caught the attention of fans and photographers alike.

Robinson, who has long been admired for his towering presence and charismatic screen persona, acknowledged the change during brief remarks to the press at the event. 

While he didn’t detail the specifics of his recent health journey on camera, the actor’s slimmer silhouette was immediately apparent compared with previous public appearances.

According to Daily Mail, the actor’s transformation aligns with past lifestyle changes Robinson has shared over the years, including a significant 50-pound weight loss he previously attributed to cutting alcohol and embracing healthier eating habits.

Though those earlier details come from previous interviews, observers noted that his updated look at the Critics Choice Awards appears to build on those longstanding wellness efforts.

Moreover, Robinson has maintained a steady acting presence in recent years, balancing film roles with television projects. 

As per the outlet, his red-carpet appearance at the awards show was one of the evening’s more talked-about moments, with fans praising his confident debut of a reinvented look.

The Critics Choice Awards ceremony itself celebrated the best in film and television from 2025, hosted by Chelsea Handler and featuring victories by films like One Battle After Another and performances from stars including Timothée Chalamet and Jessie Buckley.
