Jessica Simpson To Sign With Weight Watchers As Spokesperson: REPORT

Jessica Simpson

First Posted: 11/21/11 01:50 PM ET Updated: 11/21/11 02:13 PM ET

In Hollywood, it seems as though the post-baby, grueling slimdown process starts as soon as the doctor says, "it's a boy/girl." And for Jessica Simpson, the pressure is on. Us magazine is reporting that Simpson is in talks to become the face of Weight Watchers post-baby -- to the tune of $4 million!

Although Simpson was apparently approached by the weight loss company to shed some unwanted pounds and get back to her Daisy Duke physique before announcing her pregnancy, instead she'll put it all on the line to take off those inevitable baby pounds.

The potential Weight Watchers contract -- under which Jennifer Hudson previously got into stellar shape as a spokesperson -- would force Simpson to "lose a significant amount of weight," a source told Us.

Simpson confirmed her pregnancy via her website at the end of October, posing in a mummy costume with the tag line, "I am going to be a mummy." Since then, she and fiance Eric Johnson have been spotted all about town, glowing and sharing in some pregnant PDA.

Simpson better capitalize on her pregnancy cravings while she can, soon it will be all about counting calories and hitting the gym.

I'm sure the four million bucks is a good motivator. If not she'll certainly have the money for lipo.

Good for her!

I like this kid, but think she's making some bad moves. Has someone told her that she's being "had"-------in more ways than one, and why is the father allowing it? Does Johnson even have a job?

Every time I see this girl, I can hardly reconcile her with the girl from the reality show that she had with her then hubby. Well I suppose as long as she is happy and healthy then good on her; though she sure is off the list of my spank bank (yeah I know nasty!!!) hehe :)

I have actually LOST over 150 pounds on Weight Watchers. I would love to become a spokes person for WW....

Good for you. Keep it up. I don't mean losing more and more weight. I don't know how much you weigh now. I mean maintaining it.

Nature and music play a large part in my weight management: nature walks/jogs and dance and or aerobics with music. Makes it really enjoyable.

good job !
08:18 PM on 11/22/2011
I am down to having ONLY like 26-27 lbs to REACH my GOAL. long, long time coming.. but, so excited.. Thanks for the kudo's. Happy Holidays..

LOOK at some of the pic's above I almost thought she was ANNA NICOLE suckin her lip like a two year old grow up and diet go to work real work
12:32 PM on 11/22/2011
I'm sure her millions in the bank are screaming real work!

WW is proving themselves to be hip and on the pulse culturally by choosing JS as the next spokeswoman. New moms want to get their sexy back. It's all the rage.

JH reached another demographic. African American woman (obesity epidemic), as well as those who carried weight as toxic evidence of hurt and pain. Perhaps that was subliminal...but anyone whose heard of the JH family tragedy couldn't help but think of that when watching her succeed at shedding all those pounds. It was truly inspiring.

Simpson's transformation will be a joy to watch with new baby in tow.

I dont like her. She got knocked up before she was married. Call me old fashioned, but that is not someone I want to look up to for weight loss or anything period!
Find someone off the streets that is currently on weight watchers and make them the poster child with hard earned cash for crying out loud!

You are just plain old judgmental! Might want to check the wedding dates and birthdays of your relatives ! Funny how many times one discovers Mom or Granny had a bun in the oven when THEY walked down the aisle!
12:33 PM on 11/22/2011
"Old fashioned" = Judgemental
02:34 AM on 11/24/2011
I am not judgmental...im stating a fact. she got preggo before married...society says ok to this and back in the day it was frowned upon. I still believe it's wrong...

Do people really fall for the idea that these icons losing weight off these products in exchange for zillions of dollars means you're going to for nothing but buying their temporary weight loss products?

People are SO EASY!

Weight Watchers is not a temporary weigh loss program if you decide make healthier life style choices!
03:24 AM on 11/22/2011
I "AM" an actual person, who yes, have lost over 150 Lbs. on weight watchers.. Yes, it has taken me time. But, I am almost at my goal.... Do I need to tone my muscles? oo yea.. but, I work my butt off to get where I am at.. I am no gimmicks, no drugs, no plastic surgery. So, yes that may be why my Body is not 100% yet. But, I am getting there each day..

Major congratulations on the weight lose. I have a couple of friends/relatives that have used this program with excellent and lasting results. I like the fact that not only is it healthy, but flexible and realist enough that you can "real world eat" on it. My one aunt, who lost her weight years ago, still counts her points (loosely). She was laughing about how one day, while on vacation, she ate 104 points worth of food. But the program was so ingrained in her she had no problem going right back to her now normal healthy eating once she was home.

Currently on Weight Watchers, every time I sign on, I must look at smug Jennifer Hudson. It will be a welcome relief to see Jessica, for sure. Wishing her much success.

Please! I never trust these weight watchers spokspersons because you know they are working several hours a day with personal fitness trainers they have hired. They aren't following the normal weight watchers diet and exercise regimen. I'm sure I could look like a hollywood star if I had the money for a 5 day a week personal trainer too.

You got that right and she's probably not even paying for it.

They get paid $100,000 per lb lost, and you pay $100 per lb lost.

Now there's their motivation.

I've known "non spokespeople" that have lost considerable amounts of weight on WW. Without personal trainers, just plain old working out on your own.

I don't doubt it. But it's certainly much easier for a celebrity who has access to a personal trainer, chef to cook the food for them, and as those above mentioned, payment per pound lost. I just wish they would use a regular person who you know will use the program the way a regular person would.
