A new talent show for fat celebrity lookalikes will launch on Sky Living next year.
Ever thought you looked like a Hollywood starlet but without the designer clobber and not as, erm, thin?
No? Oh well, thought we'd ask, because Sky Living is on the lookout for porky celeb doubles who they can put through gruelling workouts to transform them into their famous counterparts. Each week the show, which is brilliantly called Bigger Than Britney, will feature a different nearly-famous face: from Britney to Gaga to the newly-blonde Cheryl Cole.
"The idea is that a fat lookalike could well be even more of a lookalike if it weren't for the extra lard," a source from show insightfully told The Sun.
It seems the point of getting contestants to start the show chubby is so they can experience the hardship of the strict celeb diet and sweat through their workouts. The source said, "It's not just a case of point and laugh at fat people." Quite.
He added: "It will attempt to lift the curtain on celeb diets."
