Jamie Oliver Got Fat!

So I have to say I have a certain soft spot for the lovely Jamie Oliver.  There is something quite honest and nice about him.  He has a certain charm, and the work he has done here for kids schools dinners has worked wonders.  I opened the newspaper this morning and was faced with this picture....

Yep that's Jamie!  Who usually looks like this....

I was shocked and horrored in just about equal measures!  How could Jamie do this to himself????  I then read the story to go with it.  It's only a fat suit (phew)!  He is doing a follow-up show to his Jamie's school dinners, to encourage kids to eat healthy.  I think that he is doing a really good job myself.  he's made me want to go on a diet doing that, and I haven't even seen the show yet!  It's really important to get kids eating properly, and especially at school.  I think he's a decent guy, and should keep up the good work!

Sheesh! I was shocked - then I read the rest of your article! LOL

He is a good lad isn't he? Those "15" restaurants where he gives 15 under priviledge youngsters the chance to train as chef is another fine example of the good things he does for the community at large.

He puts his fame to very good use.

I agree, I like him to and have a soft spot for him, decent guy - good lad

Yeah he is a really good lad.  How he coped with them brats at 15 I will never know.  Some of them were so ungrateful!  He still managed to do it though!  I'm glad he uses his popularity for positive things.  If only more people were like him!

I was shocked. I thought maybe he had gotten chunky but then I saw the picture. Glad to know it's not real. I was going to say that they say you shouldn't trust a skinny cook because if they're cooking is so good they should eat enough to get fat. ha ha. We definately don't want to see that naked chef.

Phew, I was really sucked in there for a minute. I am a big Jamie Oliver fan, as is my wife. He is such a good cook and a real nice bloke to boot. His message is simple and clear and one we're constantly trying to use in our lives. Healthy eating is the most important thing one can do for themselves besides breath, as far as I'm concerned.

I love Jamie Oliver. I didn't know he did the chef training for kids. That is amazing.

He used to have a lot of shows here in the states, now I can't find any. I wish they would at least bring back the re-runs of him.

That picture scared me for a minute!
