jackie warner - thinterventionjillian michaels - losing it with jillian

Today announced that Jillian Michaels is going to do a companion to Biggest Loser. The network picked up eight episodes of Losing It With Jillian. On her new show she’ll be traveling the country showing over-weight people how to get in shape, lose weight and get the same results as Biggest Loser, but in their own environment.

From the press release, “In each self-contained episode, Michaels will move into a family’s home and give them a top-to-bottom fitness, nutrition and wellness makeover.”

UM, WAIT A MINUTE!!!

Does that not sound exactly like Jackie Warner’s new show Thintervention?? The new Bravo show where Jackie Warner (who is Jillian’s ex-girlfriend from back in the day) will go to family’s homes and give them a wellness makeover?? From the Bravo press release, “Thintervention will follow Warner as she works with people in their real lives with work and family.”

Jackie’s show will follow the stories of the subjects rather than being self-contained like Jillian’s, but this sounds all too familiar, doesn’t it??? It’s going to be the battle of the girl jocks.

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    Wait…so Jillian IS a lesbian? I always thought that people just said that because she was so athletic and so – well, mean – sometimes. You know, like how a man can’t be into certain things without people saying “Oh, he’s SO gay!” even though he’s really not or if a woman has a certain haircut or whatever, then she’s obviously a lesbian.

    Or bikes, let me add bikes. I have a motorcycle and to some people, this apparently means that I’m a lesbian or, as some have so eloquently put it, “a dyke with a bike”. (roll eyes here)

    lol georgiababe. yeah, they used to be together–i’m sure this will stir some crazy competition up between the two of them.

    and as far as the show goes, they’re both great concepts–problem is–they’re pretty much exactly the same!
