Actress/singer/rapper Queen Latifah is the latest celebrity to front the Jenny Craig weight-loss plan.
Oscar-nominated star Queen Latifah, 37, will join the ranks of Kirstie Alley, Valerie Bertinelli, Monica Lewinsky and Cindy Williams by signing on to be the latest celebrity spokesperson for the weight-loss campaign of Jenny Craig.
“We are thrilled to have Queen Latifah support our mission of improving health by taking her first step toward achieving a more healthful lifestyle,” said Scott Parker, Jenny Craig’s VP, Marketing. “Queen Latifah joins forces with Jenny Craig to communicate the importance of how small lifestyle changes, in the areas of diet and exercise, can have positive effects on overall health.”
The ‘Hairspray’ star, well known for her fuller figure, will have a “very different campaign, focused on a healthier lifestyle, not on getting onto a specific dress size,” added Parker. The Jenny Craig program reportedly promotes healthy eating and exercise.
Former Jenny Craig spokesperson Bertinelli (“One Day At A Time”) allegedly lost 30 pounds, while Alley lost 75.
