With Dame Edna Everage and her adoring manager Barry Humphries about to embark on their farewell tour they have both pledged to lose fifteen kilos each by joining Jenny Craig.
“I have a wardrobe full of breathtaking gowns but I have to hold my breath to wear them …only three gowns fit me these days. When I’m on stage, I have to suck in my tummy because I fear my dress will burst at the seams. Just like my dear friend Mel B, I too can’t wait to get my pre-baby body back! While that was many years ago, the outcome will be the same with Jenny’s help!” Dame Edna Everage commented.
Barry Humphries who also worries about Edna’s weight commented on the need for their recent joining of Jenny Craig “We were in London recently and Edna’s looks were savaged by one critic in particular who described her as rather ‘tubby’. Well, that was a wakeup call for both of us, especially with our so-called “farewell” tour, ‘Eat, Pray, Laugh’, about to start in June. Consequently, we both take a mild blood pressure tablet and by losing 15 kilos, not only will we look fighting fit, our health will bounce back.”
“Dame Edna is an absolute legend in Australia and her manager, Barry Humphries, is equally loved. Their inspiring story to lose weight and regain their health will resonate with people of all ages. You are never too old to fight for your health; it’s there for the taking.” Amy Smith, MD of Jenny Craig Australia and New Zealand commented
It should be noted that when asked Has Sir Leslie Colin Patterson done anything to support Dame Edna Everage and Barry Humphries’ weight loss efforts? It was stated that Sir Les was not interested in joining Jenny Craig.
