Britney Spears’ ex-husband Kevin Federline has reportedly been offered a $2.5m deal to endorse a new weight-loss product.

Federline, 30, is said to be considering the deal with company EP-2 (Extreme Physical Performance). It is claimed the deal will see him become the face of the fat-burning product set to hit 1,400 GNC stores.

A rep for Federline has not yet commented on the matter but a spokesperson for EP-2 said: “Yes, we’re trying to do a deal with him, but nothing has been confirmed yet.”

It was recently reportedly that celebrity trainer Chris Cormier has put the star on a strict high-protein diet so he can shed 45 pounds ahead of his new reality show.
