I looked and looked but couldn't find the one commercial where her speech is really slurred...so I'll post another video where you can detect it somewhat.  In all of her Jenny Craig ads, her speech is REALLY garbled....like she is talking with a mouth full of peanut butter.  She never used to sound like this!

Good to see Jenny Craig down in the "fat trench", trying to get people over the top.

I noticed it, too.  I thought maybe there was a problem with her facial muscles.  If you look at her mouth, it seems really tight, especially at the corners.  My diagnosis---Botox.

See, that is kind of what I was thinking too.  Painkillers or something.  She doesn't look drunk so I would hesitate to say alcohol, but if I was just listening to her speak....it's almost a drunken slur to me.

Well, she's had problems with alcohol, drugs and painkillers.  On top of that, she's manic-depressive and regularly gets electro-shock therapy.
 
She's a mess.

She has had a really gravely, deep voice for many years, as previously said maybe due to smokin', tokin' and other drugs.

See, the latest I had seen her in anything previous to this series of commercials was in Austin Powers...I'm thinking around 1999.  I think she still sounded ok as of then.  I didn't realize she had gone through so much with tokin and smokin....Shocked
