Celebrity Fit Club
The 5th season cast includes:
Maureen McCormick (Marsha, Marsha, Marsha...ie Marsha Brady)
Dustin Diamond (from Saved by the Bell and his self-released sex tape)
Tiffany (former pop star..."I think we're alone now")
Cledus T. Judd (country music guy)
Da Brat (chick rapper)
Ross 'The Intern' Mathews from The Tonight Show (who?)
Kimberley Locke (American Idol contestant)
Warren G (the rapper)
Even though I am pretty sure VH1 should change the name to D-List Celebrity Fit Club, I'm still going to watch in April when it premieres.

Real Women Gain Weight
Former Baywatch star Nicole Eggert is back and she's sticking it to her critics in a big way. In this Baywatch spoof, the 37-year-old mother-of-one reprises her role as Summer Quinn — red bikini and all. Eggert has endured criticism over the years for weight gain, to which she says, "I'm a real woman and real women gain weight!"
Katie Reveals Reason Behind Split, Says Pete's Still Interested
Katie Price and Alex Reid partied at Movida on Saturday night, celebrating Alex's cage-fighting victory earlier in the evening. Kate wore a heart-shaped ring on her left ring finger, leading to speculation they're engaged, but she is a fan of the bling so I'm not reading too much into it yet. Peter Andre, meanwhile, appeared on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross but didn't reveal much more about their divorce: watch the interview after the jump.

Britney's Back in LA and Her First Stop Is Starbucks
Britney Spears has been traveling across North America on tour, but she was back in LA yesterday running errands and stopping by a Starbucks. She'll be performing in her home city this evening, but then she's off to San Diego for tomorrow night's show.

Dr. Ian Smith's Four-Day Diet
Dr. Ian Smith of VH1's Celebrity Fit Club wants to help you lose weight and keep it off with his best-selling book called The Four Day Diet ($17). No, he doesn't mean you'll lose weight in only four days.
DietTribe Premieres Tonight
Personally, I can only take one season a year of the reality weight-loss show The Biggest Loser. The two-hour shows, which could certainly be condensed to 60 minutes, and the extreme weight loss coupled with intense competition from last season left me feeling more burned out than inspired. However, weight-loss reality shows have proved lucrative for many networks and Lifetime is premiering a new series about five best friends as they work to alter their shapes from "fat" to "fit."
