I only saw the first six minutes of last night's epsiode because my dvr f'ed up for some reason, but I could not believe that Jackie said she thought that she handled the situation with Peeler "very professionally" and then she proceeded to talk sh*t about Peeler to his (former) client.

This woman disgusts me on so many levels. The whole scene leading up to the slamming of Jamie Eason, where Lisa goes out to Peeler, in front of his client, and tells him to change his shirt...can you imagine? Emasculating him in front of Jamie, interrupting their session and just being generally aggressive in her approach -- "Be happy," was that Lisa beyotch's smart-assed comment over her shoulder after totally being a c*nt. Unbelievable.

Then Jackie fires Peeler with no advanced notice, just like that. That is no way for an employer to handle another human being. I read on the net that Jackie has had a recent DUI and a restraining order due to her biting and allegedly stabbing one of her girlfriends. She is a nasty, subhuman, powertripping, greedy piece of sh*t.

Hey Bravo: drama is fun, but people who are this sadistic and delusional are not. I see cage fighters on TV with more class and dignity in how they treat each other, including their opponents.

It is time for Jackie and her endless infomercial for her mediocre products to go.

Also in the episode: Greg P (new Greg) had Brian Peeler over , and Renessa and Brian stressed that "all he wanted was for (Ms. Warner) to apologize for the incident (to his client)." Greg P said that he believed Brian was a "solid character" to stand up for his friend and offered a gesture of solidarity on this (topic or incident). Brian said the same thing to Renessa when she arrived.
Brian also said he was looking into doing his own gym.
At the retreat: Ms. Warner gave Shannon (Brian Peeler's former client) to JD (the new massage Therapist/trainer). Also Renessa confessed on the bus to the retreat site (to Rebecca) that she has a crush on Greg P. At the pool , Rebecca told Greg P that "someone" has a crush on him and HE guessed it was Renessa.)
Not at the Retreat: Agostina visited Mike-a her Skylab client, went through his fridge and helped him with some exercises that he could do at home.
Also at the retreat (Dolphin Bay) the night after the three bootcamps and the introduction to the new protien bars, there was a group therapy session. There were some peopel talking about why they gained weight and what was going on in their lives. Shannon mentioned taking care of her child who seems (if I got the gest of the story right) to have some sort of disability, which was a deeply emotional narrative.
Deinie started to tell about her moving in with her mother to take care of her mother and then her mother died. As she was talking about that, Mikea burst out and told her she was making excuses and killing the rest of them. Jessie told Dienie she was an addict and she denied that. She got up , left the room and smoked a cigerette. Gregg (her trainer) when out to her and convinced her to return.
Ms. Warner called to Dienie (sorry for so many spellings, not sure how to spell her name) and said something like "Dienie, Sugarplum, come back in here, honey" and then called for a conclusion of the session.

A couple of personal notes: Notoreously abscent from the footage of anyone working out...Lisa. I saw her momentarily poolside during pool workout.
In the previews of the upcoming shows, Brian Peeler is talking to Ms. Warner at an event (I suppose) and it appears not to be a friendly exchange.
My own take on things: I guess I'm glad I watched the episode because it upheased me to see Brian Peeler moving on and still having support of some of his Skysport friends. I still hold my opinion that Ms. Warner is spiralling downhill and has ailienated many of the people who might break her fall. I do not find her actions (in many cases) "professional" as she purports her behaviour to be. One "pet peave" : I realize I'm being picky on this one, but Ms. Warner seems to call a lot of people "Honey" ...and during this episode calling Dienie "Sugarplum/Honey". If a man were doing that, I'm sure it would be considered condescending, I think it's very condescending--not a term of endearment, as Ms. Warner made it quite clear that she has little respect for Dienie . Even more people, does Ms. Warner really think people fall for that?

Anyway, sorry for the LOOONG post. That's the recap I have and my 2 scheckles.

Perhaps this is true to a certain extent...however, there must have been a lack of character that existed prior to fame. Success may give you a big head but I don't believe it completely changes your entire moral compass.

found an article on tmz about this its on the 2nd page now but will move down.. Sorry if this was posted already did not want to look through the past 10 pages to see.

http://www.tmz.com/page/2/

I agree completly with you. I guess the point I was trying to make is she wanted fame and even more riches. She loved the positve attention the show brought her and the magazine covers and articles about her, well you need to take on the bad press as well. She lived in La for many years to know there is a price for fame, she didn't just come in off the greyhound and suddenly be thrust in the spotlight.

As with everything in life you take the good with the bad. She has been living a life most of us could only dream of for years, now she is paying some hard dues. Again this was her undoing, no one elses.

I bought one of Jackies tshirts. Its adorable. And when the workout DVD comes out on Tuesday, I will get that too.

I know that Briana, and Jackie split in march...friends said that she was back with MIMI. sounds like Peeler cannot make it on his own and is still ,after all this time, trying attach himself to people associated with his old boss How hard can it be for some one with the hands of michaelangelo, to be a sub contractor at another gym, and bring all of his a- list clients there....?????? Is it true that Peeler was an unemployed construction worker, and that Bravo central casting hired him for Workout 3 years ago to play a trainor, that would stir things up on the show?

I am going to order a Peelerbuilt tee shirt for hubby for father's day. I think he will enjoy it as he is starting his latest fitness regime.

Ya know...that's a great idea ctmum...I think I will too!

how about: ProPeelerBuilt

PETITION LOCATION: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/643731154

Yeah it's true about Peeler moving to LA to get into 'modeling' as he put it but worked in construction. I think he had a failed construction business in NC and then in LA worked a little in construction before being cast to be on Work Out. That info is from him directly in an old interview. Most trainers have a web history of their work. Brian has zippo, zero, nothing... I suspect that's why he's not training anywhere in LA now and wasn't before. I also think it's why he won't drop the whole Jackie thing. If he had a flourishing career, there would be no need to continue and continue and continue discussing it. Most people would want to distance themselves from it.

As for Mimi, I always liked Mimi. She used to train at Equinox... I have no idea if she still does. Is she really back with Jackie? That's crazy. I wasn't sure that Briana and Jackie broke up but I do remember reading that Briana was working at SkySport at the beginning of the year!! It's all so confusing... So why did Jackie and Briana break up?

I think they are all actors in some sense with imdb (?) pages and agents and representation. They run in overlapping circles and probally get invited to similiar events.

I think Brian will be like Ty Pennelton(sp) from trading spaces. He was cast as a secondary charecter to the host and desingers of the show. Now he is a bigger star in his own right, because he was an interesting charecter and viewers responded to him in kind.

I think all of them would probally stop being trianers in a New York minute if they got a television show or movie role. Trainers in LA are like waiters and waitresses in NYC, flexible hours so they can attend auditions during the day.

Don't really care but maybe it has something to do with the fact that Jackie said she moved in the night they met...Yep...that's probably a long lasting relationship...and speaks volumes about the stability of Briana that she could just pull up stakes and move in. Alrighty then.

Brian is training his clients at a new gym

Correction! Brian was an out of work flight attendant! That was after his failed construction business and before being cast on Work Out.


Bravo's hits series Workout returns for a third season April 15th on the the Bravo network. Yesterday we chatted with Brian Peeler to find out what we are in store for.

Mark: Brian, great to chat with you today. I told Rebecca I missed saying hi to you guys at the RealityCares event last week. We were one of the sponsors, but the place was so packed at 5’7 it was hard for me to look over the crowd and find everyone. How are you doing today?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I’m doing great man, no complaints, it’s a nice 56 degree morning here in Los Angeles.

Mark: You’re not from Los Angeles originally, tell the readers how you ended up there.

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I drove from North Carolina to Los Angeles on several fill ups in my 1987 Isuzu Trooper.
Mark: Sounds like a fun ride, did the show bring you to Los Angeles?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I was personal training in North Carolina but it’s just not a big market for that type of work. I wanted to do some acting and modeling so I moved to Los Angeles.

Mark: What got you into personal training, have you been in the business for a while?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I actually started a construction company with my cousin but after we had a falling out, one of my friends suggested that I give personal training a try. Prior to personal training I had started with US Airways as a flight attendant and a few months later we had September 11th and they downsized many of us.

Mark: So how did you end up on the show?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: While I was doing some personal training in California, I was also doing some acting and background work. I went to a place called Central Casting and eventually ended up with a spot on the show.

Mark: I started working out when I realized at age 17 that most of the girls in high school were not only taller but weighed more than I did. I was that typical 98 pound male, what got you into the gym?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I have always been an active guy and almost headed into the military. I was also a little guy and at 6’1 I only weighed 149 pounds. Even thought I would eat like a horse I never got any bigger so I started hitting the weights.

Mark: Can you tell viewers a little bit about what’s going to go down on Season 3.

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: You will see me as always, I am real and call people out on [expletive deleted]. I keep it real and stand up for what I believe in, the gloves are coming off on Season 3.

Mark: Talk with me about you and Jackie Warner, you two butted heads last season. Are you guys cool now or are we in store for some more action?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: I don’t care much for that woman, her true colors are going to come out this season. There are a lot of people who don’t care for her and people who live in the area know her behavior and who she really is. I won’t sit here and grind her into the dirt but her true demons will come out this season.

Mark: Talk with me about your friend Doug, sorry about the loss, I know it was hard on you.

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: Doug was my best friend and an amazing man. I heard rumors Jackie felt like I used Doug’s passing for publicity. It is so stupid for her to say that since we were such good friends. Doug was going to be the best man at my wedding. Doug and I hung out whenever we had some down time.

Mark: Did you get to see Doug after he got sick prior to his passing?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: Doug didn’t want any of us to come see him since he had lost so much weight and wasn’t the big sexy Doug everyone knew and loved. I did get to see him the day before he passed away but could not go into the room since they didn’t want any kind of germs or contamination inside. Whether or not he heard me or knew I was there doesn’t matter, I was glad I had the chance to see him one last time.

Mark: Well thanks for chatting with us, I will contact you guys in a few weeks to chat about what has gone down after a few shows.

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: Be sure you contact me after episode four, after May 6th.

Mark: I am sure you can’t tell me why but I will make sure to do so. So before we go, can people get training sessions with you even if it’s not on the show?

Brian Peeler, Bravo’s Workout: It’s hard to make room for people right now since we are doing so much press and PR but they can reach me at Brianpeeler.com or peelerbuilt.com

http://www.realitywanted.com/newsitem/1000...ut-season-three

He works at http://www.bodyimage-la.com/trainers.html

Yeah, moving in instantly rarely works. So what happened with Peeler's marriage? He talk talk talked about his sweety and fiance in Season Two and then he got married and it lasted for about 5 minutes???? He really seems to burn through relationships. Doug was "going" to be his Best Man? That's just seems odd to me. He didn't know Doug for very long but Brian seems to 'fall out' with a lot of people.

BTW: Brian tells Greg in their first meeting that he was an Army Ranger or something ( I need to rewatch to be sure) but Brian was NEVER in the military!

I just don't understand the taking sides. Brian and Jackie are both very screwed up individuals for whom the truth does not exist.

I'm sorry but that's not an impressive gym. Not in name or location.

And to the person who thinks Brian owns his own gym? Where exactly would that be?

Correction! Brian was an out of work flight attendant! That was after his failed construction business and before being cast on Work Out.

How old is he now what 29, so he was 21 or 22 after 9/11, when they downsized the airlines he was working on. Yeah it seems like he's been trying to find his way thru his 20's, but isnt' that what your 20's are for?

"Lesbian Fitness Guru Jackie WArner Needs a New Sponsor"

news item

I'm not taking sides...I just cannot stand to watch Jackie Warner anymore...I find her behavior repulsive.

I think Peelerbuilt Fitness is probally and incorporation name for the Tee shirts and possibly the fitness show he is currently pitching. I don't think it's a gym.

As far as the comment about the impressive gym, I would rather work out at a YMCA in a trusting enviorment then Skysport where they talk about clients appearane with cameras rolling, I would hate to think what happens there when production shuts down.

Absolutely!

Ya, I always liked MIMI too, i think that she resembles....LENA OLIN....I think Jackie paid the bills, but MIMI had all the power in the relationship...HA HA ( you know what i mean) .
as for michangelo aka brian peeler, I do know this.......On NOV 13th, or 14 th, of 07, 3 weeks or so after he go fired, both he and Jackie , as well as the rest of the gang, at a charity benifit, at the REPUBLIC in LA. At the event Peeler was bugging Jackie( if i has been jackie i would have gotten on a restraining order against him, after the treats he made) They had a HUGE fight, on camera the event had something to do with Doug i think.
As far as Briana is concerened Who knows why people break up...She is young, but wise beyond her years. She probably decided that jACKIE WAS TOO OLD FOR HER, AND CAME WITH WAY TOO MUCH BAGGAGE...
and that my dear is all i know.

I agree with you there. Skysport is sort of a cold empty place. It speaks volumes to me that Jackie doesn't even work out there.

I really don't care what a gym looks like or where it is. I think you can get what you need just about anywhere. I just think Brian likes to talk a big game.

Erika used to train at the YMCA. I like her.

Thanks! That is great! I hope everyone has sent a great big Thanks to Gatorade for listening to their consumers and taking a stand.

So apparently Canopy Furniture is Walmart...just went to their website because it was advertising on this page and it is in fact Walmart...you guys know what to do.

Just recieved this email
Thank you for your email, We have contacted Bravo regarding some of the content of Workout. We cannot control the final edit of the show, however, we were assured that the content relative to Olivia would be positive. We are not at all pleased with the final episode and will not allow Workout to be on any of our properties in the future.Thank youOlivia Guest Services

Ok Bravo...are you feeling the heat yet? A response would be in order at this point..don't you think? We are not going away.

I personally don't care if Brian was a good trainer or not, whether he had a great training background or not.

He was hired, and everyone deserves to be treated with respect. I used to admire Jackie but this year she shows none of the trainers any respect at all, and the issue with Peeler and her was an employer at their very worst.

Jackie, as the employer, should never have allowed anyone to talk bad about clients and immediately apologized to everyone involved for the bad behavior of her staff and herself. She also owed Peeler an explanation, even if she still wanted to fire him, she should have given him that respect. She stated that when she told Peeler that she would not talk about it, that no employer would stand for that from an employee. What's she failed to realize, that no employee deserved her outright refusal to answer an issue with a trainer's client.

From what I remember, Doug was going to be a groomsman or usher whatever the term you use for it, not a best man. I think best man was a family member.

His marriage did fall apart, he battled the bottle for a few weeks, got into a motocycle accident (not drinking realted btw), and suffered a shoulder injury he is about 98% back with.

Is he a hot head who wears his emotions on his sleeve, yes. But is is just being the human being faults and all. I know my issue with JW is that she isn't acting like a real human being, doesn't admit faults, makes rules that suit her. I am not looking for a superhero to watch on tv, who can do no wrong- I want to watch a real person.

As far as an argument with those two, it's probally at Doug's benefit and I am sure Brain was shut out of some part of it and got upset. As it was sponsored in somepart by Skysport I would bet a gallon of gas that she instead of putting her feelings aside for Brain and being the better person used her power to shut him out.

I am not Peeler fan..not at all. Do i wish him well.? Yes. I do support Workout and Jackie Warner being off the air..totally

you know I noticed yesterday that the Olivia Sweepstakes link on this site was gone... WOW this is HUGE for our community...



Now call and write that Dolphinbay place. I posted a link on here somewere back...

We still have no reply from Dolphin Bay

Thank you for the re-post....

Ok, see I want both too! But I like Jackie and don't think you would have the drama without her, sorry folks! I do wish she wasn't as rude as she is sometimes but heck we would not have anything to talk about then!

Wow,
Bravo has got to be feeling this now. Gatorade, SoyJoy, and now Oliva Cruise line. Bravo has a very friendly relationship with the Gay and Lesbian community. Alot of past show partcipants (Top Chef and Project Runway), post there blogs from outzone on the Bravo page.

To have a major sponsor from that same community express open dissatisfaction on how they were portrayed on TV is a big hit I would think.

CAn you send this link over to laragmag site??? they have been great on great reporting of this.... thanks

Rude is when you walk past someone and don't say hello....making fun of a woman's breasts is just downright immature and disgusting. Especially a paying client...who just happened to have struggled with breast cancer. I'd rather talk about something a bit more positive..thanks.

iplease. POST a link about Olivia to the LA RAG MAG SITE.. THANKS ( I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO IT....ALSO THE SOY JOY LINK ... THOSE GUYS POSTED A huge REPORT ON THE PROPELL STORY. THANKS

They do in fact! Bravo is airing the GLAAD awards... We have not got a good responce from GLAAD regarding the letters we have sent... I also posted that link somewere on here...

I am sorry! I am busy, but as always wanted to share...

I seem to have forgotten, refresh my memory why did Jackie not like the cruise and make less than positive comments about it?

Cramped Quarters and one bad meal after bad meal...

Olivia wants some of these Cruises to be kid friendly as well... I am sure allot have to do with all of the drinking...

I couldn't agree with you more. If people want to go onto a reality show and make fools out of themselves just to be on TV well that's their choice. To make fun of others and revictimize cancer suffers and their family's is disgusting. Jackie and Bravo deserve any fallout they get from their classless show.

Every day that goes by and Bravo doesn't respond with a public apology along with possibly cancelling Workout makes me more pissed off. My mother died of breast cancer and I still have strong memories of her dealing with the loss of her breast. She spent much of her last 2 painful years on this earth locked in the house to insecure to be seen in public.

Please in the name of decency remove Bravos channel from your cable box using the built in parental controls. Just keep ignoring us Bravo we aren't going away, I'm pissed.

Thanks for the information.

I think they are trying to get some of the Rosie Family Cruise market. Yes that cruise didn't look too family friendly to me. (Based soley on the aired footage, not making judements about the idea of a lesbian cruise.) I think it's a brilliant idea for Lesbian families to have a chance to vacation and be open with their lifestyle.

According to many witnesses (her office manager, the client's boyfreind, multiple of her trainers...) she lied about the gossip incident and she has been observed to tell untruths on the show multiple times. It is not hard to believe that she would also tell untruths about or overly embellish her past as well.

I am sorry I left out the n in the link. The other link is no good.....

If you sent an e-mail you will have to re-send.....

Why?
Why would you go there?
Why go after a great guy who died way before his time and his friend who loved him dearly - what does that get you?
