Outspoken former Apprentice star Katie Hopkins says she wouldn't employ fat people 'because they look lazy'Former Apprentice contestant Katie Hopkins has once again come under fire for her forthright opinions - by claiming she would never employ a fat person.
She says an overweight employee could give the wrong impression to her consultancy firm's clients - because they look 'lazy'.
It is the latest outburst from the controversial former reality TV show celebrity, who has aimed barbs at a wide array of people and groups she does not deem acceptable.
The 38-year-old said: 'I bet I’m not the only one who thinks that if you are obese, you should eat less, move more and lose weight.
'Would I employ you if you were obese? No I would not. You would give the wrong impression to the clients of my business.
'I need people to look energetic, professional and efficient. If you are obese you look lazy ,'
