Tamela Mann: Gospel Singer Becomes Ambassador for Weight Watchers

Tamela Mann

*Gospel singer/actress Tamela Mann is ready to embark on a healthier lifestyle journey, which is why she has teamed with Weight Watchers (now called WW) as their new celebrity ambassador.

“I decide that this is the help that I needed because I couldn’t do it my own,” she told Essence.com in an exclusive interview.

“I prayed about it for a minute to make sure that I wanted to make this step,” she added. “Looking over my life and just thinking about everything, I was like, man, it would be great to be an encouragement to somebody else and not just to help myself get over this journey I’ve been struggling with my whole life, because I’ve lost weight and gained weight, and lost weight. I’m really excited about the lifestyle change and to be able to have people that you can connect with and who can coach you.”

Weight Watchers is just as thrilled to have Tamela on the team.

“Tamela Mann is a wonderful addition to our WW family, as we build on our leadership in weight loss to become the world’s partner in wellness,” said Sherry Thompson, SVP of Community Engagement & Activation for WW. “WW aims to make wellness accessible to all by helping millions of people adopt healthy habits for real life. With Tamela’s help, we hope to inspire more African American women and their communities to live healthier by providing the tools, information and inspiration to get there.”

In related news, Tamela and her husband David were recent recipients of the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work – Debut Author for their book “Us Against the World: Our Secrets to Love, Marriage and Family,” per blackdoctor.org.
