A weight loss company claims “Precious” star Gabourey Sidibe shouldn’t be worried about her appearance … but rather her health.
Let’s not kid ourselves people, the ‘Precious’ star is obese.
For us to pretend that someone her size is healthy (just like we wouldn’t pretend that someone anorexic is healthy looking) is a disservice to real plus sized women who are actually healthy and to Gabby herself.
Luckily, she’s in a position to take charge of her size and be a role model to young ladies struggling with weight issues. Maybe a letter from the Acai people is just for publicity for them (isn’t Oprah suing them?), but I believe the gesture is something she should consider for herself.
AcaiSupply.com is reaching out to the Oscar nominated star, noting that obesity is a “major epidemic” in the U.S. and they want to help her fight what they call “this terrible affliction.” The company is offering her a one year supply of the product in return for an endorsement — provided she loses weight.
The CEO wrote a letter to Sidibe, urging her, “The only way you can reach your goal of someday winning that Oscar is by being active, fit, and most of all, healthy!” A rep for Sidibe could not be reached for comment.
