Oprah Diet Disaster!

$268 million piece of Weight Watcher pie threatened by consumer fraudumer fraud suit.

TV TITAN Oprah Winfrey has become tangled in an embarrassing weight loss scandal that threatens a huge chunk of her $268 million Weight Watchers diet empire.

A massive class action lawsuit is accusing the dieting giant of cheating subscribers out of hard-earned cash with a glitch-prone weight loss website and mobile app that failed to deliver as promised.

The 63-year-old media queen could lose a fortune and end up with a tarnished image if Weight Watchers is found guilty of “deceptive business practices and misleading advertising,” as the consumer lawsuit charges.

In addition to being the company’s third largest shareholder, Oprah has put her rep on the line plugging Weight Watchers products, which she claims melted off 42 pounds.

“She works so hard on her image,” says a source. “It’s so embarrassing to have your name attached to this sort of scandal.”
