Winfrey Signs Weight Battle Book Deal
5/22/06
Talk show queen Oprah Winfrey has signed the biggest non-fiction book
deal in history to write about her weight loss battle.
The 52-year-old will be paid more than $12 million by publishers Simon
& Schuster to share her struggles with the world.
She recently said of her weight, which yo-yos between 145 and 210
kilograms, "It's always a struggle. I've felt safer and more
protected when I was heavy. Food has always been comforting."
