    Only watched one season of the show way back when (liked it a lot actually, but 2 hours per episode was too long). Figured some people here probably still watch it. Was Jillian bad, or is this a publicity stunt to get higher ratings from guys?

    Heard this the other day. My guess was that she is getting so many other opportunities, that spending 3 months (or however long) filmibg this show is gonna cost her money. She is getting pretty popular i think.

    That's a horrible move on their part. She only needs to lose like 20 lbs.

    Jillian is excellent. As others have said, her popularity is through the roof and she probably has so many more huge opportunities right now.

    Anna has a good agent, from complete obscurity and down wash out faded lane, she gets on a popular show, that isn't as desperate as the dancing with the stars move.

    i'd feel pretty cheated if i ended up on her team rather than the team with the actual physical therapist/trainer who might actually help me lose weight.

    Producers confirm the 29-year-old will join the show as a celebrity trainer ... but trainers Jillian Michaels, Brett Hoebel and Cara Castronuova will not return for Season 12.

    Exec. producer Todd Lubin tells New York Magazine the decision to hire Anna was all part of an effort to reboot the show for it's 12th season.

    Momentarily thought this was Kate Hudson:



    It's obv to me Kournikova is being brought in for sex appeal.

    For the record I'd fuck Jillian Michaels 'til her eyes bled.

    She fooled people into thinking she was a pro tennis player. I'm sure she could pull this off, too.

    Fooled? She was ranked top ten in singles and number one in doubles at one point and did win a couple of grand slam doubles titles. She was one of the best at her peak.

    Awesome job closing Fox News for wiki, sir. She folded like a wet paper bag under pressure 100% of the time, never ever ever winning a WTA singles title. Even an aging Amanda Coetzer smoked her.

    pretty sure a pro tennis payer/model knows how to work out. what, like it's hard?

    even someone in terrible shape knows how:
    eat nutritious food, and not 8 tons of it
    work out: weigths cardio etc

    ohhhhhh brain buster!
