As always I love the celebrity interviews that Fitz does from That's Fit.  So here's the most recent regarding Kellie Pickler's 28 pound weight loss.

Kellie: Oh my goodness! My body has made a big transformation. When I auditioned for Idol I was only 100 pounds and kind of riding on "the young card." Although I exercised a ton, I think I stayed thin because I was ... young! But my eating habits on Idol and the during the tour became terrible. We were always eating fast food on the road and having late night munchies. I gained 28 pounds in less than a year!

Fitz: How'd you take it off?

Kellie: I had to learn to eat right! Fitz: How did you go about that? Kellie: I appeared on the Ellen Degeneres show and we chatted about it. She told me about the book Skinny Bitch which was both really enjoyable to read and easy to understand.

Fitz: And now how do you eat?

Kellie: I could eat fruits and vegetables all day, and I do! I don't eat almost any meat at all. Most people don't believe it, but I think what you do and don't eat is 80 to 90 percent responsible for your weight. Exercise is just a bonus.

This Brit beauty, Cheryl Cole, struggles to control her weight.   She reveals in the February issue of Vogue that,

...there are days when she feels 'fat' and claims she does not like her legs. 

The 25-year-old British singer from Girls Aloud and a judge on The X Factor, continues to say, 

...in 2003, during her first year as a Girls Aloud member, she burst into tears when she could not fit into a pair of jeans and embarked on the Atkins Diet. 'I actually went up to a size 29 (waist),' she said.

Cheryl speaks to Vogue in the February edition, out this week 'I remember being in Selfridges and taking these size 28s into the changing room and not being able to get them on, and then getting on the scales and crying because I was nine and a half stone. Nine and a half stone when I'm only 5ft 3in. 'Jennifer Aniston was doing something called the Atkins Diet at the time and I thought I'd give it a try. '

The record company had just moved us into this hotel called K West and I remember I ate the same thing from room service - chicken in cream sauce with a couple of carrots - every night, for weeks, and I just felt horrible. But I was on this mission.'

Movies aside, she stays fit by swapping favorites like fried chicken and cookies for protein shakes and fish, and training five days a week.

Check it out to see who's at #1 and who we should admiring in 2009.   

Ah Brit - just when we have hope and see you getting back on track you're going to fall off the bandwagon. 

In the midst of a highly anticipated comeback, Britney Spears is back on a high-calorie junk food diet.  An insider tells Britain's Daily Mirror,

“Britney’s been eating burgers and chips for lunch in complete defiance of the strict eating plan worked out for her...It’s as if she’s trying to defy her father and bosses, and break out of the controlled environment by turning away from the healthy lifestyle they’ve put in place.”

She reportedly refused to stick to the 1,200 calorie a day pre-tour diet recommended by her trainer and managers.    

Next time your wondering how to spice up your treadmill workout, take the Patrick Dempsey approach...run in rain boots! 

Looking fashionably ready to workout, McDreamy forgot one important piece of apparel....his sneakers. On Dec. 17 in a downpour, Dempsey opted for running in his galoshes than back to the car to get his good ol' sneaks.

"You could hear him squeaking on the treadmill from across the room!" says a witness.

Besides how annoying the noise must have been to surrounding gym members, I wonder how long he ran for? I have a pair of rain boots and those things are big and bulky - I'm definitely not running in them unless my life is in danger.  Hey, maybe that'll be the next big footwear for workout apparel, rain boot style sneakers?! 

That's what pop star Britney Spears is saying when it comes to Coke.  Although Spears has been looking quite svelte these days, she has an additction to the beverage, and can freak out if she runs out. 

The star has a huge endorsement deal with Pepsi, but I guess money can't buy you love!

Which do you choose, Coke or Pepsi?

If you're expecting a rigorous exercise regimen, think again.  You won't find Kate Winslet in the gym anytime soon to get her gorgeous bod!  The hot momma-of-two doesn't have time to workout for hours on end, instead she tells UK's Elle,

'I am pretty average' demurs the star who is considered anything but by men and women alike. ' I have cellulite, I don't go to the gym because I don't have time but I do Pilates work out DVDs for 20 minutes or more everyday at home.'

Check out Skinny vs. Curvy for a piece of the interview.  Talks of cellulite, a rumply tummy and saggy boobs are in the mix. 

Totally heartbreaking and tragic....John Travolta and Kelly Preston's son, Jett, died today.  Jett was only sixteen years old when he could not be revived from a seizure.

The son suffered from Kawasaki Syndrome, which he fell ill of at the age of two after inhaling carpet cleaning fumes that caused his immune system to shud down in a 2001 Good Morning America interview.

I mean this disease is so rare and freakish...I'm in complete shock that there is a disease like this out there...so scary!  

My condolences to the family. 

Update: The seizure had led Jett to fall, hitting his head on the bathub.
