BEMUSED Yanks are begging Jamie Oliver for diet tips after seeing snaps of him in a fatsuit. The chef, 31, donned the suit to promote his Channel 4 show last month ? but some gullible Americans thought it was a real ?before? picture.

Jamie said: ?They really thought I?d been on some miracle diet. I got lots of calls and emails from the US asking me how I lost all the weight.?

He wore the suit in a trailer for Jamie?s Return To School Dinners last month. The ad, which showed a roly-poly Jamie sitting on his moped and breaking it, was to show the effects of a poor diet.

----------------

here's the video:



It is quite convincing at points I suppose, but who would think it's real when his moped collapses like a clown's car in a circus?!
