Octavia Spencer files breach of contract lawsuit against Sensa

Octavia Spencer is suing weight-loss company Sensa for breach of contract and fraud after they allegedly refused to pay USD 700,000 to the actress for endorsing their products.
Spencer claims the company tried to back out from paying the remaining sum they owe her from the USD 1.25 million contract she signed with them to endorse their products.
Sensa is reportedly reneging on their deal due to their failed advertising campaign which they blame on Spencer's restrictions and stipulations on the contract, reported Aceshowbiz.
Sensa got Spencer as an endorser after she won an Oscar for "The Help" and lost 20 pounds after five months on the company's weight-loss products.

With the help of a doctor formulated weight loss system that is sprinkled on food to help the person, eat less and feel full faster, Spencer lost some extra pounds.
But her refusal to do tabloid ads and before-and-after shots reportedly did not sit well with Sensa executives.
Spencer claims the company has resorted to finding ways to avoid making the remaining payments that she is supposed to get from the endorsement deal especially since she has lost the mandatory 20 pounds required of her.
"Sensa manufactures and markets a diet product designed to trick one's brain. Therefore, it's not surprising that it would manufacture allegations against its most prominent spokesperson, Octavia Spencer," Spencer's lawyers wrote in their lawsuit.
