Jessica Simpson is living the American dream: Getting paid to be fat.

Of course, as the newest spokesperson for Weight Watchers, she’s expected to actually lose that fat. If she puts on more pounds and has to be removed from her home by a crane, she won’t get paid. But still, she got fat and is getting paid.

Four million dollars, no less.

Jessica made the announcement of the worst-kept-secret deal on Twitter, writing, “So excited to be a part of the @WeightWatchers family!’

So how much does Jessica Simpson weigh? We don’t know the exact number, but supposedly 65-75 pounds more than she did before pregnancy.

Wow. Weight Watchers must be waiting for a big reveal, because Jessica hasn’t been photographed in public since she gave birth on May 1.

She did debut the first photos of Maxwell Drew yesterday, however.

WW said: “We’re thrilled that Jessica Simpson has joined Weight Watchers to adopt a healthier lifestyle and inspire others to do the same.”

Best way to inspire others? Pay a few million dollars.
