Vince Neil on The Surreal Life was one thing... Now Jani Lane is following his lead! Only this time, instead of sitting around in a house with other B-list celebrities, he's gonna do jumping jacks with them.
[b]QUOTE[/b] (VH1) | VH1's "Celebrity Fit Club", hosted by comedian Ant, is one unique reality series. Simply by signing up to VH1's "Celebrity Fit Club", our participants are making a statement to the world that they have a problem and they need help to overcome it. They'll be aiming to shed pounds, but they'll also have to shed their inhibitions.
On this show will you see these celebrities revealed as never before:
* "227"'s Jacke Harry
* Actor Gary Busey
* "America's Next Top Model"'s Tocarra
* Victoria Jackson, best known as a comedienne on "Saturday Night Live"
* Phil Margera from MTV's "Viva La Bam"
[b]* Jani Lane, frontman of rock group WARRANT[/b]
* Willie Aames, best known from "Charles In Charge"
* Wendy Kaufman ... Yep, the Snapple lady is back!
It's a simple concept: Eight overweight stars are divided into two teams and challenged to get fit and lose weight over a 14 week period. Along the way they will each:
* Be publicly weighed in every show individually, and as teams on a pair of giant scales
* Be called to account by our supervising panel, who'll be aware of every half-hearted sit-up and every sneaked donut
* Have the deepest secrets of their diet and lifestyle revealed
* Be put through the mill by the toughest drill instructor the U.S. Marines has ever produced
* Deal with the antagonism of the rival team's celebrities as the weight-loss battle gets intense
This show is about much more than diet and exercise. It's about vanity, rivalry and self discovery. It's an emotional show but it's often funny and never downbeat. There will be tears, there will be tantrums, there will be breakdowns, but the abiding tone is positive and life enhancing. All the celebrities will emerge from this show as changed people and, as viewers, we will have been privileged to see that change happening before our eyes.
Each week the celebrities will be summoned to our purpose-designed Fit Camp, where they'll face challenges ranging from belly dancing to ballet, from synchronized swimming to limbo.
Each week they will face the music on the loneliest walk in television as they find out whether they have lost weight or gained it: And they'll face the consequences from our panel of MD, psychotherapist and drill instructor.
And each week they'll have to deal with the praise or recriminations from their fellow team members and the taunts of their rivals.[/quote]
If Jani succeeds in losing weight, good for him. But if he goes right back to drinking (and various other self destructive habits) it won't help much. Either way, I'll be watching and laughing every step of the way. _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C. Hall |

Yeah, that'll be funny. Phil and Jani and Gary Busey running laps together. :lol:

Wow...can't say that I'm surprised that its Jani of all people but good for him. This will be the most publicity he's gotten since 1989. _________________ Vaccum cleaners may look fun, but are deadly sex toys. as are certain vegetables like, terri schiavo -Powtaz |

I wish I made money promoting this crap.
I stole the actual quoted text from Sludge, who ripped it off the VH1 site.
I posted the press release for Cinderella's headlining tour this summer but didn't see any money from that either.
VH1 used to be cool. Now I wouldn't waste my time with them. Unless they paid me. _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C. Hall |

They still have the VH1 Classic channel. Its the only channel I know of that still plays old RS videos and Nirvana Unplugged. You could always work for them. _________________ Vaccum cleaners may look fun, but are deadly sex toys. as are certain vegetables like, terri schiavo -Powtaz |

[quote]I only get basic VH1. [/quote]
So do I but for some reason all of my friends have that IO cable and they get all these different music channels. So I only get to watch like it like once a month. So for now all I can hope for is a Behind the Music rerun about Guns N' Roses. Or that Velevet Revolver Uncovered special that I keep missing.
But at least we're like, what? Only a few months away from seeing Jani Lane running laps and doing jumping jacks. Now I have a reason to watch VH1 regularly. _________________ Vaccum cleaners may look fun, but are deadly sex toys. as are certain vegetables like, terri schiavo -Powtaz |
