Paul McKenna reportedly helped Courtney Love to lose weight by hypnotising her.

The ex-Hole singer approached the TV hypnotist when she piled on the pounds after kicking her drug addictions.

The Daily Mail quotes her as saying: "I've known Paul for years. I lost weight last year the old-fashioned way by dieting and living off protein shakes. But it was hard to stay disciplined.

"He's brilliant and is totally responsible for me staying so skinny. Whenever I start to feel my resolve weaken, I go to Paul for another hypnosis session."

McKenna has published self-help books Change Your Life In Seven Days, I Can Make You Thin and I Can Make You Rich.
