Tummy Trouble

‘CONGATULATIONS to Playboy - it is one of the few institutions in America that is actually doing something about the country’s obesity epidemic.

‘I’ll take my knickers off for another doughnut’

News is, courtesy of the Enquirer, that Hugh Heffner has ordered Britney Spears to lose 20lb before she poses topless for his magazine.

The magazine says the love-hungry 22-year-old has turned to food to fill the void left by Justin Timberlake - and has a photo of her flabby stomach to prove it.

An eyewitness at a party to celebrate her brother Bryan’s birthday reported that the singer was looking ‘fit but still quite porky’.

And this could scupper a mooted multi-million dollar deal with Playboy.

‘If Britney gets back into shape, there are only three things to negotiate,’ an insider says. ‘Is she slim enough? How much is she prepared to show? And how much money is it worth to her?’

Enough to buy an awful lot of Krispy Kremes, one suspects…’
