The Internet is awash with lesbian celebrity news right now. AfterEllen.com reports that Bravo has picked up a second season of Workout, starring lesbian fitness trainer Jackie Warner. Filming starts in November; no word yet on when it will air.
Because it’s the weekend, here’s a fun and frivolous question to comment on: If you won a one-hour workout (sports workout; this is a family site) with one of the following out lesbian athletes, who would you choose, and why?
- Rosie Jones (golf)
- Billie Jean King (tennis)
- Amelié Mauresmo (tennis)
- Martina Navratilova (tennis)
- Sheryl Swoopes (basketball)
- Michelle Van Gorp (basketball)
- Jackie Warner (fitness)
- Sue Wicks (basketball)
Write-ins welcome. For myself, I’d have to choose Martina, since she’s always been a hero of mine. Then again, because I was a competitive fencer for years, I might also choose the lesser-known Jana Angelakis, a two-time Olympic fencer who now runs the PEx fitness center in New York.
