Wii Fit - Wii what? As many of you know, Wii is the popular interactve Nintendo game console - well Wii Fit is the new fitness game in their Wii Sports collection that promises to get your body in tip-top shape.

Wii Fit has already sold over 1.8 million copies in Japan and the United States May 19th launch is expected to share the same results. Last week the UK launched a successful Wii Fit Campaign (Model/Fitness Athlete Nell McAndrew and girl singer Sarah Harding demonstrated Wii Fit at the launch) with sellout pre-orders of this interactive fitness game. Wii Fit is incorporated with the Balance Board accessory (a pad that players stand on during their exercises) which will have an estimated price point beginning at $89.99. The board is innovative in that it responds to both your balance and body weight.

The interactive fitness game begins with you checking your BMI (Body Mass Index Rate) and then test your balance to determine what your “Wii Fit Age” is. You can select from forty plus workout sessions such as challenging muscle conditionings, aerobics, boxing, running, snowboarding, yoga and even hula-hooping.

This game has the potential of getting your body super sexy bikini ready (or bathing suit ready - for those chicks out there that prefer sexy one-pieces!) just in time for the summer. Perhaps even just get those legs toned so you even look even sexier in the latest styles of strappy stilettos

For busy hot moms or just hot chicks with hectic schedules, Wii Fit may just be the ticket for you to become the best glamour babe you can be! Grab your guy or your kids and get healthy and fit!

Sport Tidbits:

BMI or Body Mass Index is your number that is calculated from your height and weight. It an estimation of the percentage of your total weight that comes from fat and doesn’t include muscle, bone or organs. For example, the higher your BMI is, the higher the percentage of fat you have in your body. General rule of thumb for a good healthy weight is a BMI between 20 and 25.

Alyssa Milano’s MLB Line of Sportswear Apparel

Alyssa Milano has her own line of MLB sportswear apparel - who knew? (Well, I didn’t until just a few minutes ago!).

I was browsing the online MLB store and I came across Milano’s line of MLB fashion sportswear. Wow, was I impressed. Milano has numerous styles to choose from ranging from sporty to glamour! This hot chick certainly found a really cool niche to get herself into in the world of fashion.

The fashion line has been available since Spring, 2007. I’m still in shock, every year my Mom and I support my sons and their baseball teams by trying to wear something that represents their team. Most sporting good stores as you know selling sportswear memorabilia have such boring styles of t-shirts and tees, most of which are unflattering to a chick’s silhouette.

Pardon this old news if you will, but perhaps there are some hot chicks out there like myself who have been clueless about Milano’s adorable sports team apparel line for women!!

I chose to show two of Milano’s sportswear apparel representing my favorite So Cal team (not to mention the name of two of my boys’ Little League teams) the LA Angels!

I’m sure all you guys out there will appreciate her line as well - I know my boyfriend sure can’t wait to see me rockin’ one of her cool outfits with some sexy stilettos to pair up with! (Yes - even at Little League games or Major League games - I’m sporting the stilettos!)

Alyssa Milano’s fashion sportswear line is called TouchTM. The sports clothing line has also extended into a brand of jewelry which launched at the end of Summer, 2007. Very Cool!

Miss California Pageant a Sport?

285misscalifornias120607.jpgMiss California Pageant a sport? Heck yeah -have you seen the competition these chicks have to go through? Also, these glamour chicks are very fit and nowadays are very athletic. And think about this, in sports, people are judged on their athletic ability and the fitness of their body. It takes a bit of athletic ability to walk the pageant runway in stilettos! Beauty Pageants can also be compared to sports because competitors are viewed by their representative state or country with a sense pride.

Okay, on with the story…………

Today, Christina Silva, the “almost” 2008 Miss California filed a lawsuit against the Miss California Pageant for a monstrous error when she was “accidentally” crowned Miss California during last November’s pageant.

Four days after being crowned Miss California, she was notified that due to human error, she was not the winner after all. Rumor has it that the director of the pageant was more interested in having the all American girl look in the winner and because she is Ecuadoran and Mexican, she didn’t fit the bill. The crown was then handed over to Raquel Beezley who has the majority of Caucasian decent and a quarter Filipino.

The lawsuit is seeking retribution for “public humiliation, mental anguish and distress, lost opportunities, lost prizes and lost monies.” $500,000 in damages is being sought by Silva who feels her civil rights have been violated. State Pageant Director, Keith Lewis stated, “, “We support Christina in her quest to seek the truth,” he said earlier. “At the end of the road, she won’t find an ounce of discrimination, preferential treatment or impropriety. What she will find is simple human error.”

Lewis has stated, “We support Christina in her quest to seek the truth,” he said earlier. “At the end of the road, she won’t find an ounce of discrimination, preferential treatment or impropriety. What she will find is simple human error.”

Friday night, 2008 Miss California Raquel Beezley will be competing for the covenant title of Miss USA in a live show from the town of glitz and glamour Las Vegas.

Good Luck Raquel! (”For it’s root, root, root for the home team“)
