Being picked as the winner for the Woman of the Year award at the annual Hasty Pudding Awards, Renee Zellweger did a little more than just showing up in Harvard to ride in the back of a silver convertible Bentley with two festively-dressed members of the country's oldest undergrad drama troupe.

The actress put on a fat suit and spoofed her role in the “Bridget Jones Diary” movies in a short act during the awards ceremony.

The “Jerry McGuire” star, who famously put on two stone to play her role in “Bridget Jones,” smiled and laughed while parading about in the bulky flesh-colored outfit while she was honored as the Hasty Pudding Theatricals woman of the year in Harvard, Massachusetts.

“I have always had great faith that no matter the state of the union, that America's future was sound so long as Harvard continued to deliver us her brightest and best,” the 39-year-old actress said. “And after what I have experienced and witnessed today, I can tell you that I'm going to really have to re-think all that.”

The awards are given each year to performers who have made a lasting and impressive contribution to the world of entertainment by the Hasty Pudding Theatricals at Harvard University, the nation's oldest undergraduate drama troupe. While Renee Zellweger was the chosen one for the Woman Of The Year award, James Franco was named Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Man Of The Year. He will be honored in a separate ceremony next week.

Zellweger currently stars alongside Harry Connick Jr. in “New in Town,” which opened in theaters on Friday (Jan. 30). She also recently starred in “Appaloosa” with Viggo Mortensen and Ed Harris. She will next star in “My One and Only” and has just completed production on “My Own Love Song” starring alongside Forest Whitaker.
