Britney Spears and Bally’s Total Fitness
Alright, this is a late breaking news story. Apparently, for the last month, Britney has been working out every day at Bally’s. It seems there may be some deal where Bally’s hires her to promote the gym. I guess from what I read her manager is friends with one of the high officials at Bally’s. Maybe they will hire her to promote the gym on TV commercials.
After going bankrupt last August, I’m surprised Bally’s has the kind of money they would need to hire a high-priced celebrity to advertise for them. Still, they got a lot of free publicity just by letting Britney work out for free. Maybe that’s their plan. Geurilla publicity. Still, I have yet to see much of this in the press or on TV. News of this supposed deal has been floating around the net since early April.
From what I read in the online Daily Mail from the UK today, it seems a month of exercise is paying off for Britney. They report she has lost 20 pounds and is now exercising up to six hours a day. This has got to be better for her than drinking every night at the clubs. From what I hear, she still smokes. Maybe she could use some help quitting that unhealthy habit.
I have not been able to find out if any deal between Britney and Bally’s has been struck. I don’t know how well off Bally’s is to be hiring expensive spokespersons. It was just interesting to read about someone trying to get their life together. Who knows, maybe next time I go to the gym they will be playing Britney Spears on the PA system.
