Rapper Eminem has allegedly been approached by dieting brand Slim-Fast apparently in an opportunity to to shed some of the flab he put on recently.

“Slim-Fast is a program that can really work for someone like Eminem; it’s a doable and flexible approach,” said a spokesperson for Slim-Fast. “Slim-fast would love to offer Eminem product and assistance to help him become a potential S-F success story.”

According to reports, Eminem is most likely to go on a 1900 calorie-a-day diet, which would include three Slim-Fast Shakes per day.

Eminem, 35, hit the headlines thanks to a number of best-selling CDs, personal lyrics and a pivotal role in the hit 2002 film ‘8 Mile’. He has won Grammys, including Best Rap album for ‘The Slim Shady LP’, ‘The Marshall Mathers LP’ and ‘The Eminem Show.’
