When my nieces were little and i was trying to lose baby weight, we used to do the sweating to the oldies tapes with richard simmons. We used to laugh so hard when he would say something that sounded like "i'm a pony, ride the pony" I thought we would pee ourselves! I think i lost weight just from laughing so hard.
There are some people in this world that you just have to lovel Richard Simmons and William Hung both come to mind. I think it's because they have tremendously upbeat attitudes and really don't care what others think about them, they believe in themselves.
I think Richard Simmons is one of the most genuine people out there. He has dedicated his life to helping people become healthy--both physically and mentally. I do'nt think he's got a mean bone in his body. His clothing style might be a little...um..well, Richard Simmons, but it definitely fits his sparkly personality.
