Weighty Extras

weight loss 9 1[Blind Gossip] When this wholesome celebrity pops up on your TV screen trying to convince you that eating the foods from weight-loss company X is responsible for her new body, your eyes should roll hard to the back of your head.

Sure, the diet works… if you couple it with more than one round of liposuction, a semi-starvation diet, a personal trainer, a chef, and multiple body sculpting procedures. However, we doubt our celebrity will ever mention those things in the commercials.

  2. Marie Osmond? oddly enough, i saw a commercial of her’s the other day and thought the same thing – there is no way she hasn’t had work done.

    • That is a good guess too! Why would ANYONE ever believe celebs? I mean the companies themselves should be leery of using them. We ALL know they can afford to be thin. yes trainers, lipo, lifestyle, good genetics to begin with (for most) as well as a million other tricks. I’d NEVER believe Jenny Craig was what made a celeb thin… or any other diet. I’d think their MONEY did!

  9. Marie Osmond for Jenny Craig?

    No, I don’t believe the weight loss companies the celebrities represent are wholly responsible for their weight loss. They probably have a lot of surgical help.

  12. Oprah?

    Optional: Noo personal trainers and surgeries make up most of their diets. Plus most of them don’t live the lives we do, so what works for them might not work for me or you.

  13. I was going to say Sharon Osbourne, but I don’t think she is wholesome.

    I would say Marie Osmond as a best bet. She does look wonderful

    Optional : Not all of them, but some of them.

  14. Marie Osmand. eyes rolling to the back of your head is a reference to her doll line.

    Well, Oprah said she loves bread, and it looks like she’s gained weight since then, so…maybe I believe her that she does love bread. but that’s about it.

  18. Gotta be Marie Osmond/Nutrisystem. Kirstie Alley for Jenny Craig is probably not ever going to be described as “wholesome” (coke habit and Scientology be d****d), and Weight Watchers doesn’t make you buy their own line of food, so Oprah is out. Can’t think of any other celebuspeakers who do weight loss…

    Do I believe them? Generally not – even *I* could lose weight if I could afford a personal trainer and six hours in the gym every day!

    • Although I keep thinking Valerie Bertenelli is pretty wholesome too but is she a spokesperson anymore. Wholesome IS Marie over Oprah.

  24. Wholesome celebrity: Marie Osmond. No, I don’t for all the reasons you’ve listed.

  27. Marie Osmond for Nutrisystem. She does look pretty great and I totally agree – it’s not just from eating some pre-packaged meals.

  33. Marie Osmond– she is not kidding anybody. I thought she looked good at first with the weight loss, but she is looking “manufactured” lately–she needs to lay off!

  35. The only person I can think of is Marie Osmond. She’s had a face lift, breast enhancement, and liposuction on her stomach. Probably more that’s not obvious.
    No, I don’t believe celebrities on weight-loss commercials.

  38. Marie Osmond if it’s a spokesperson we’ve already seen. IDK if it’s someone to come that we haven’t seen yet. No, I do not believe any of them going as far back as Suzanne Somers and the Thigh Master. Even she, way back then, in the 80s or 90s got busted having had lipo on her hips and thighs. And her response was the ultimate: “I have to smooth thighs and hips to effectively sell the Thigh Master.” It didn’t occur to her to actually use the thing she was selling to get those…

  45. Well, the word “wholesome” makes me believe that this is Marie Osmond for Nutrisystem.

  46. Marie Osmond! Otherwise known as the only “wholesome” celebrity shilling that crap.

  47. Wholesome Celebrity: Marie “She’s a Little Bit Country” Osmond

    [Optional] Do you believe the celebrities on those weight-loss commercials? No.

  48. Oprah. I think it’s laughable how she says she “finally” discovered the solution when WW has been around forever
