"I wouldn't do it for Jesus - I would do it to see tabloid gossip people have zero to write about: 'She prays all f**king day; what are we going to do now?'" Belinda Carlisle has become the latest celebrity to endorse a weightloss program after signing on to star in a new NutriSystem TV campaign.The Our Lips Are Sealed singer lost 20 pounds (nine kilograms) using NutriSystem's Flex food-delivery package, and now she's hoping to help others to diet.

I wouldn't do it for Jesus - I would do it to see tabloid gossip people have zero to write about: 'She prays all f**king day; what are we going to do now?'

And Carlisle isn't too proud to admit she let weight issues ruin her early success - even using a photo of herself at her heaviest to illustrate how far she's come. She says, "Being a part of an all-girl band was a blast but being singled out as the plump one really bugged me, but, as I got older, and maybe a little wiser I started to get smarter by eating healthier and taking care of myself."At 50, I look better than I did at 30... I've kept my weight off for almost a year and it's such a relief to wake up, go into my closet and wear anything I like. NutriSystem taught me how to eat again."
