GMA Anchors Chris Cuomo and Sam Champion on the Today Show’s Matt Lauer and Al Roker
Chris: Matt Lauer is in phenomenal shape. It’s easier for him, though, cause he’s a smaller guy. Sam and I are taller and both over 200 pounds. Matt is about 5’10″ and around 150. It’s easier for him to look lean. Why don’t you ask me about Al Roker!
Fitz: OK. What advice do you have for Al Roker?
Chris: Whatever it is that he is doing right now … Stop! And do the exact opposite. Read more here …
“Something Borrowed” star Colin Egglesfield on auditioning to be the official body of Calvin Klein
Colin: Well, I just went in for a casting…never thinking I’d actually get the job. I had to try on a variety of CK clothes for a group of execs, and then the group of models was narrowed down and I found my self in Calvin Klein’s office trying on a bunch of different things for him.
Fitz: The Calvin Klein? You were in his office?
Colin: Yep.
Fitz: And then what happened?
Colin: He brought in a group of other people to help make the decision, and I was grateful that they chose me. My years working with CK have been terrific. A great experience.
Fitz: You’re also on the box for Nautica and Versace underwear, which speaks volumes about your physique. How do you prepare for that photo shoot?
Colin: I lift a lot of weight to build size and then do a lot of cardio to stay lean. It’s OK to be a bit bigger for photo shoots. Although, I’m more cautious with my eating for that kind of work. Read the rest here …
Paige Davis, “Trading Spaces” Host gets freaky on vacation for fitness
Fitz: Where is your favorite place to vacation?
Paige: Vegas. And, I know it’s totally gag-me, but I love Disney World too!
Fitz: Disney is great. We go there all the time. Do you exercise on vacation?
Paige: No, not intentionally. But vacation seems to be busy. We walk a lot at Disney…and have lots of SEX!
Fitz: Ahhh! That’s great!
Paige: Well, it’s marital sex! Sex is exercise right?
Fitz: It sure is. Great quote though. Thanks. Read more here …
CNN Anchor Don Lemon on his fear of looking weird while working out
Fitz: What’s your workout routine like?
Don: I do a P90X style workout. Lots of plyometrics, cario bursts, stretching and so on. It’s great because I used to be intimidated in the gym, but now I move from one thing to another so fast that I don’t have time to worry if some guy is looking at me weird. Read more here …
Discovery Channel’s “Man vs Wild” star and survival expert, Bear Grylls, on the grossest thing he’s ever eaten
Bear: Lots of things, but in the Sahara I was given goat testicles from some nomadic tribesman. It was an honorable gesture on their part, so I ate them.
Fitz: What did they taste like?
Bear: Before my first bite, I’d imagined they would taste like hard boiled eggs, but they were horrific. I bit down and explosion of gristle and sperm just melted in my mouth. I actually threw up afterward and so did my camera man Simon. Doing that to him was great!
Fitz: Have you eaten anything in the wild that was surprisingly good?
Bear: No. Most everything has been terrible. Sheep eyeballs were also very bad. Read more here …
