Phylicia Rashad Tabbed as New Jenny Craig Spokeswoman
Posted by Bossip Staff
It looks like we’ll be seeing a lot more of Phylicia Rashad:
Phylicia Rashad is the latest actress to be tapped as a spokeswoman for Jenny Craig, PEOPLE has learned exclusively. “Jenny Craig confirms a new relationship with Phylicia Rashad,” says a spokesperson for the company. “We look forward to sharing the details at a press conference in late January.” Rashad, who is best know for her role as the loveable, wise Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show, joins the ranks of stars such as Queen Latifah, Kirstie Alley and Valerie Bertinelli who have all been spokeswomen for Jenny Craig. Earlier this week, Rashad, 60, was nominated for a Golden Globe for outstanding lead actress in miniseries for her role in Raisin in the Sun.
Doesn’t she look stunning for 60, hell, even 40? We know she could very well be a great-grandmother, so we say this with the utmost respect: Phylicia, you can get it.

She was wonderful in A Raisin in the Sun.
And she still looks good — Go on Mrs. Huxtable! *snaps up*

I thank the Lod everyday i wake up that im healthy, black and my mother looked 28 when she was 48
SYDNEY! Love the Alek Wek(sp)gravy!
now thats true beauty also!
that pic is fire!
Now don’t get too fat Claire
oooh la la, Mrs. Huxtable. The hottest tv mom in the 80’s
Did my last message post?
If she was the hottest TV mom does that mean Bill Cosby was the hottest dad? UUGGHHH
LMAO @ Mock….even is she fat I love me some Mama Huxtable. She was the BOMB on that show and never got any recognition. Thats just not right!! I still watch the Cosby show on Nick and MeTV
Bill Cosby was NO WHERE NEAR hot. Blahs. It was funny how he matched with her so perfect but was a ugmo. I mean, not a ugmo, more like, not in her league.
PURPPLE

So, what is fake beauty
I’m trying to be on Claire Huxtable status when I’m married. She had 5 kids, a cool husband, a bad ***** job, beautiful home, and still looked fly while doing it all.
Ermy Erm (Chitown til it go DOWN!)
Bill Cosby was NO WHERE NEAR hot. Blahs. It was funny how he matched with her so perfect but was a ugmo. I mean, not a ugmo, more like, not in her league.

let’s be real though…Cliff wasn’t hot but he was stable and lovable…if he was too hot then his a$$ would have probably thought so do and be getting some out of the relationship (like the real Bill Cosby did)
WORD! @ Mock…..
@ Traylin…I never knew what the deal was from ppl sayin first. You dont get a prize or nothing for it, so I dont say it…its weird lol
man, I hate writing in these boxes…makes me feel like a retarded child
HAHAHAH! oh no Mock! Do we still say retarded or is it mentally challenged?
She still looks good! Black people tend to age gracefully anyways. I thank my mother and father as well! I’m 29, but still look 18! I get that ALOT!
Big ups to Claire aka Phylicia Rashad!!!
Me too Raquel!! Im 30 lookin teenagerish. Its a blessing indeed except when i get carded. That burns me up.
This is how you age gracefully – she looks good imagine when she loses some weight.
Mrs Huxtable looks fabulous, no matter what size she is. Thank goodness she is not like these other white actresses that get knifed up as soon as they turn 30.
Good! I’m tired of seeing that big ***** Latifah doing those commericals because that huge dyke hasn’t lost an ounce.
Yes, we black women do age wonderfully: to the envy of women everywhere. To hear that she’s 60 yrs old is shocking because she doesn’t look it. I can understand why she might wanna lose some weight though, for health purposes. Otherwise cheers to her! Those (nothing ‘real’ about ‘em) housewives on Bravo could learn from women like this: the more you fight aging the worse you look. All them broads look flame retardant.
I always wished she was my mom…
and I’m white
What a cl*****y lady; I wish her the best!
I absolutely loved her on the Cosby Show. She is still a very beautiful woman.
She looks amazing for 60
She scares me. She’s the only woman outside of my grandmotners, aunts and my mom who intimidates me. Even looking at this picture, I sat up straight and closed my legs. She just commands respect…how does she do that? And she looks so young…It’s like she still has her 30-year-old pretty girl look down…
Dirty Thirty!!! Wut up Mrz. Huxtable ?
She looks fantastic for her age…
I think she’ll be a better spokeswoman than Queen Latifah was-she barely lost any weight!
oh my
Hey Aunt Viv! Rumor has it that Queen Latifah was asked to stop promoting Jenny Craig because it contradicts her whole ‘Queen’ makeup line and persona of big-and-beautiful. I just didn’t take her seriously because wasn’t she promoting Pizza Hut last year?? LOL
Her and Lynn Whitfield got that cl*****y thing going on. No matter what they wear, they always look cl*****y.
Lmao@Vee-Like Garfield I Hate Mondays
Now thats funny! LOL
But Ms. Rashad is another Hollywood actress who you hardly ever hear any credit being given too. She looks damn good for a woman that is 60, I would have never thought that she was so old tho.
I can’t ever get tired of seeing her. I grew up seeing her all the time!
Dannngggggggggg this cold weather ain’t no joke…. Friggin 6 degrees outside. I am freezing at work sitting at my desk, I need to be home and warm! LOL Stay warm all my fellow bossipers!!!
I remember years ago when she tried to advise Oprah to settle down and do less tv Oprah looked at her as if she was mad and then went on to become a billionaire and a stong advocate of Obama lol
“So, what is fake beauty”
@ Mock
Beauty that starts and stops skin deep. If there is nothing more profound than physical attributes than it is “fake beauty”.
Sorry, but age has been an unkind mistress to Phylicia and her sister Debbie. They’re prime examples when menopause goes from bad to the extremely bad. Ugh!
Hey Vee-and yes, that Pizza-Hut-to-Jenny-Craig irony was not lost on me. LOL.
I STILL WANNA GIVE HER SOME GOOD OLD DOGY STYLE
She commands respect in her voice and entire presence.
Well-educated, well respected and noteable career with longevity.
Always acted & looked her age, played appropriate parts and never sold out.
Some of these young actresses can’t even have their name mentioned in the same sentence with her or sit in the same room with her.
If I were some of them I’d cringe or bow down when I see her…she’s a pedigree.
What was Ahmad thinking when he left her for that haggard looking woman?
You all are right about Queen Latifah not losing weight.
I got the whole “One size healthy” marketing scheme, but it clashed with everything else she was doing…especially not losing any, I mean no weight and running around with a personal trainer.
The jig was up when she bust out with A. Keys to do that Superwoman performance w/those jeans, dress top on and her girdle was showing.
MAN THIS WOMAN IS THE EPITOME OF BEAUTIFUL FOR HER AGE!!! HELL, JUST BEAUTIFUL PERIOD. BUT DAMN 60??? MAN, SHE LOOKS HELLA GOOD FOR HER AGE!!!
She is stunning!!!
[...] Oprah’s weight was in the news. This week, it is the former Mrs. Huxtable, Phylicia Rashad. Bossip reports today that the noted stage actress has signed on with the weight loss company. I *****ume the [...]
i want a claire huxtable!
best role model ever!
have u seen this shirt:
@ Larry
You must be crazy Phylicia looks good for 60. She has a pretty face with little wrinkles. She has all of her real hair. you must be blind.
Debbie looks messed up and has been for a long time. Don’t get it confused.
man, yes she can get it….60??? it’s some 20 year olds that dont look good as her….she reminds me sooooo much of my moms…………..
___________
Did you even read what you wrote?
saying that she reminds you of your mom yet you would “still give it to her” is disgusting and twisted all at the same time.
she is damn sexy
she is still beautiful. that’s how you do it ladies. Houston grown….straight from 3rd ward, babies!
i am surprised BOSSIP can spell respect.
She is indeed a cl***** act!
No Better Spokes Person could of been picked!!!! She is truly an Inspiration! Good Luck with this Campaign and Don’t lose too Much… You are an truly a Gifted Individual!
Just a wonderful beautiful lady…..
She looks good, period. Age has nothing to do with it. Now Debbie looks a hot mess. She looks older than Phylicia, but light skinned sisters tend to break lot younger than the brown skinned sisters. I like both of them, but the truth must be told.
Ms. Rashad has been on my Harem List since like ‘93. I ain’t finna let a roll or three come between us now.
60???? Ive had a crush on her for years. She still looks amazing
[...] from the looks of those legs, they aren’t quite ready to throw the towel in on their ‘sexy‘ just yet. Can’t say we blame ‘em [...]
