    Charles Barkley Caught Saying Weight Watchers Endorsement Is A Scam

    Last night Chuck was caught on a live microphone calling the money he earns from the endorsement a scam.

    They were on commercial, but I guess Chuck forgot that even when they are on commercial, they are still streaming live on the internet.

    It's Charles. If you listen, he's also calling his current job with TNT a scam.

    Yeah I know it's just Charles being Charles, but this is still funny.

    Weight Watchers may fire him over this though?

    What? I think you're not understanding the context of what he said. Chuck is saying it's so easy to loose this weight, that its a scam he is getting paid for it.

    Much like he's TNT job. Getting paid to watch and talk about NBA games is a scam, too.

    He doesn't exactly say Weight Watchers is a scam...He's getting paid to lose weight, which is a bit of a scam...I still think they'll drop him.

    he didn't say the system of weight loss was a scam, he said them paying him money to lose weight was like a scam like the job he has now that he gets paid to watch basketball.

    Does anyone really think WW is watching the stream? I highly doubt it. Although now that there are videos maybe he may get a spanking.

    The thing is all these guys get paid to lose weight on a schedule they dont lose weight with weight watchers. Most of them are so fat and out of shape just walking around and lowering calorie intake will allow them to lose 10-12 lbs, if they stop drinking thats another 5 or more as well. So theyre already down 15-20 lbs without doing anything 'special'.

    Anyone that thinks any of those weight loss programs helps them lose weight is an idiot anyway. But WW must make money as they keep paying these guys big bux.

    Exactly. He gets paid lavishly to do easy work. Talking about a sport he excelled in, and weighing in once every 2 weeks are cake jobs. His scam comment pertains to his money flow from being employed by those campanies.

    "Somebody paying me to let them help me lose weight is even better than someone paying me to watch basketball." That's essentially what he was saying.

    If anything, this clip should make people like him more. Even during the breaks he's still talking about the game and how much he likes his job.

    Weight Watchers responded to his comments saying something along the lines of: "We value Charles as our spokesman because of his outspoken nature."

    Really- when you think about it it's a compliment.

    Watching sports and getting paid is the biggest scam- or so he thought. because he is doing something he enjoys and getting paid for it. easy money he says this right before he says the weight watchers thing is a bigger scam- get it?

    Losing weight and being a spokes person for doing something healthy = easy money. So really it's a compliment if you think about it carefully.

    He's lost weight- with weight watchers or not(most of these people are full of shit and if you believe they do it with just 1 thing they promote... you yourself are not smart at all).

    Seriously what idiot thinks proactiv is what gave Katy Perry that beautiful face?

    In the end though it's Charles being Charles
