Kanye West

Jessica SimpsonJessica Simpson's deal with Weight Watchers is reportedly on shaky ground.

The Fashion Star mentor - who shed 70 pounds on the weight loss program after the birth of her first child Maxwell seven months ago with her fiance Eric Johnson - has reportedly angered executives for already getting pregnant again after they gave her $4 million to be the face of the company.

"They're furious at Jessica. She was already on thin ice with them since she didn't lose enough for the first ad, when they had to shoot from the waist up," a source said. According to the insider, the company don't think they can continue to run campaigns featuring Jessica because she is pregnant: "They don't think it can run. No one wants to hear about a pregnant woman dieting."

Jessica is yet to officially confirm she is pregnant, but is said to be thrilled to be expecting her second child so soon after the arrival of her daughter in May. Jessica has previously said of her daughter, "Motherhood is a dream, it really is absolutely amazing."


Anne Hathaway on 'Glamour'Anne Hathaway admits her weight is a daily obsession.

The Les Miserables actress - who previously revealed she "lived on hummus and radishes" to lose 25 pounds to play prostitute Fantine in the movie - says she is ashamed of being so consumed by staying slim but blames her celebrity status. Asked if she thinks about her weight daily, she told E! News, "If I'm honest, yes. There's an obsessive quality to it that I thought I would've grown out of by now. It's an on-going source of shame for me. I just think about the ridicule you get if you have an off day. If people weren't watching, I'd be so much more eccentric... I actually really don't feel like getting made fun of. So I put on something boring and navy and go out and try to disappear."

The 29-year-old newlywed also revealed that she decided to change her lifestyle after filming her critically acclaimed movie Rachel Getting Married, for which she earned an Oscar nomination in 2008, when her relationship with Italian real estate developer Raffaello Follieri crumbled because he was jailed for fraud and embezzlement.
