What A Loser

When I heard the biggest loser was in Sacramento, I figured Old Man Richter blew out a tire on his way back to Hippyville. Turns out it was Shay Sorells, from that show that weighs fat people while they cry. I only recently realized it's called The Biggest Loser because it's about losing weight. Huh, how about that.

Shay, having been a former contestant, was downtown for some sort of national health day. The event also featured free Jamba Juice and Subway... every cheapskate photog's dream come true.

Shay took a moment to speak with local celeb Alfonzo before facing the crowd of admiring healthy-people-to-be.

What few people realize is that Alfonzo's first wife had her own bouts with weight loss following the birth of their twins.

Tensions began to grow between them over her struggles with weight (and the fact that she slept with his cousin, Tapie), which led to their eventual divorce. For this reason, Alfonzo watches The Biggest Loser every week and cries himself to sleep. Also, because his children were eaten by a defective handy cam when the family visited the set of the show.

Life can be so cruel.
