The Jessica Simpson Workout Video That Never Was
Earlier this week, Ashlee Simpson wanted everyone to quit talking about sister Jessica's weight. She got her wish.
Instead of trying to decide whether Jessica's put on too much weight or just needs a new stylist, everyone has turned their attention to her disastrous attempt at a weight-loss video. Jessica recorded the Speedfit DVD in 2005, but instead of straight-to-DVD ... it went straight into the garbage can.
According to sources, both Jessica and her daddy were pretty hard to work with and are now refusing to come back and re-shoot footage. That's probably why Speedfit owner Alex Astilean is suing them for $10 million. One unnamed source goes so far to say that this fitness DVD would sell better than her videos, but not because they'll help anyone get fit ... but because they'll make Jessica look worse than a pair of high-waisted jeans.
So who will win? That remains to be seen, but according to the bonus audio in this video, Papa Joe plays hardball.
Heidi Klum gets trampy with Jimmy Kimmel
Fitness, Celebs & Entertainment
Heidi Klum has already extolled the virtues of the trampoline, citing it as one of the things that keeps her in supermodel shape. This week, when she appeared on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show, she showed off her trampoline jumping skills -- and dragged Jimmy with her.
In fact, she encouraged him to take off his shoe and socks, which he initially refused to do, and for good reason -- when he finally took off his socks, some of his toenails were painted (apparently by Ben Affleck).
At any rate, Heidi proved to have some good moves on the trampoline, and Jimmy did a pretty decent job of staying on. While it might not have been the most efficient way to conduct an interview (we learned that Victoria Beckham would be a celebrity judge for the Project Runway finale, but that was about it), it sure was a lot of fun to watch. It was short, but if they'd gone for much longer, I would imagine they would've been fairly out of breathe. I mean, when's the last time you were on a big trampoline? It's a workout!
And let me just say, Heidi gets more likable every time she hits a talk show. She's fun, she's goofy, and seems to get along well with everyone, and now that she jumped on a trampoline with Jimmy Kimmel, I think I have a girl crush.
