• Richard Simmons Reportedly in Hiding While Suffering from Depression, Physical Ailments

    Have you noticed that Richard Simmons seems to have dropped off the radar? Think about it: The fitness guru usually turns up in support of some charity event in his tank top and short-shorts and we are all momentarily amused. Then there are the multitude of people whom he has helped with weight problems and self-acceptance, usually a new video or workout is available to keep them plugging along. Unfortunately, Simmons has been MIA for the majority of 2014, and it took until now for it to really click. TMZ is reporting that Simmons is suffering from a knee injury that will ultimately require him to have his left knee replaced. A source close to Simmons claims he is terrified of the surgery, but without it doctors have told him he will never exercise again. The fitness expert has apparently let the fear overwhelm him to the point of inactivity. Rather than take the necessary steps to heal his body, he has stayed hidden, growing more depressed as time goes on.
  • Will Pippa Middleton Become Newest 'Today' Correspondent?

    Apparently, Pippa Middleton made such an impression on NBC after sitting for an interview last summer that the network has been courting her for a job. Kate Middleton's younger sister taped an interview with Matt Lauer for "The Today Show" that aired in June and the ratings were spectacular. The numbers confirmed what the network had already known: Americans love royals, even if they are only a married-in extension of the monarchy. Kate's marriage to Prince William has caused enormous interest in Pippa and NBC is hopeful that they will be able to add her as a new correspondent to Today. According to a new report by Page Six, Pippa has been working on a test piece in Utah and, if all goes well, then it will sign her to do special reports on subjects like health and fitness.
