Oh Jillian, You’ve Done It Again


I have to admit, I’m not a big Jillian Michaels fan. We’ve never met but, her antics on The Biggest Loser really turn me off. I hate the show and have repeatedly said that it is the worst thing that has happened to the fitness industry in years. However, she is loaded and probably will kick my a_ _ if we ever meet. Poor Jillian, she has turned into a fitness punching bag this week after the release of her “Kettlebell” DVD. To say the reviews were poor would be a compliment. Take a minute and check out this LA Times article about Jillian and her DVD.

The funny part is that Jillian has said she will sue the columnist who wrote it? What for, speaking the truth. Let me know what you think after you read it.

    It’s not over yet:http://tv.yahoo.com/blog/la-times-issues-correction-to-jillian-michaels-oped–1683?nc

    The problem with those two certifications is that they have nothing to do with kettlebells to begin with, which is what caused the (latest) uproar over her. The second thing is that I know there are lots of various certifying bodies out there, but those two I have not heard of.

    Anyone know if she has a degree in the field? I read the part about the two weekend certs, but didn’t know her professional “accomplishments” beyond her screen actors guild nomination? ha (To be honest, that may not be the correct actor award. But then again I don’t do DVD’s or articles that make it look like I know anything about that field. So hmm…)

    Thanks for the great blog Mike. I may not agree with everything. But it does make me think and I certainly respect that.

    The worst part of all of this is that people actually support her in the comments section pf the article! It is up to those “who get it” to spread the word. I’ve only had two conversationsn with past biggest loser “victims”, and if they won’t even support her, the public should start to catch on.
