Former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Rachel Hunter is the new face of weight-loss brand Slim-Fast.
The company has announced that Hunter, 37, will appear as part of a campaign called “Find your Slim,” which features women representing “real body shapes and sizes with messages such as, ‘We believe in hips, not hip bones’”.
“I have always tried to be my own person and live up to my own definition of an ideal size that feels right for me and for my body. When I heard about the ‘Find your Slim’ campaign, I thought it was refreshing for a weight loss company to deliver a message that was empowering—it’s freeing to be encouraged to set and achieve your own personal weight loss goal,” said Hunter. “That was a message I wanted to help spread.”
However, Contactmusic.com reports that when the 37-year old ex-wife of rock star Rod Stewart was was approached for the campaign, she said, “Wow, what’s wrong with me? Do I look fat?”
Well, looking at Rachel’s SI pictures, I’m kinda starting to believe in hips, too.

Tori Spelling, 34, has just landed her first job as a celebrity spokesperson–for the new NutriSystem Advanced program.
The “Beverly Hills 90210″ star obviously was a great choice for NutiSystem after losing 35lbs on their special diet plan following the birth of her first baby Liam with husband Dean McDermott nine months ago.
“I’ve heard about people on diets and you get a meal plan and you eat the same thing all the time. But with NutriSystem, there’s so much to choose from that it took me forever to go through everything and repeat. My favorite is the meat loaf,” Spelling said. “It didn’t feel like I was on a diet. It was convenient with the baby, and it tasted good. I want to enjoy my life right now, and I don’t want to feel like I can’t eat. It totally changed my body.”
“When I was young it’s always that thing - you can never be too thin,” she added. “Now that I’m in my 30s - I’m married, happy and have a baby - I realise I’m at a healthy weight. I don’t want to get any thinner. This is what looks good.”
Spelling’s campaigns, shot in San Diego recently, will start appearing on TV and in celebrity and women’s magazines next month.
Dieters who sign up to the program will receive $300 a month specially prepared meals including breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert, and will also get unlimited access to weight-loss trained counsellors.
