RICHARD SIMMONS, BADASS (Mar. 26, 2004)

EXERCISE KING RICHARD SIMMONS HELD IN ASSAULT
Flighty fitness teacher allegedly slapped heckler

PHOENIX (AP) - Exercise guru Richard Simmons allegedly slapped a man who made a sarcastic remark about one of his videos, police said. Simmons, known for his Sweatin' to the Oldies series of exercise videos set to songs from the 1950s and '60s, was cited for misdemeanour assault.
A fellow passenger recognized Simmons on Wednesday night at Phoenix's Sky Harbor International Airport as he was waiting for a flight to Los Angeles, police said. The man "made the off-hand comment, 'Hey, everybody. It's Richard Simmons. Let's drop our bags and rock to the '50s,"' said Phoenix police Sgt. Tom Osborne. "Mr. Simmons took
exception to it and walked over to the other passenger and apparently slapped him in the face."
The passenger, whose identity wasn't immediately available, wasn't injured but told police that he intended to file charges against Simmons, 55. Osborne said Simmons was cited for misdemeanour assault and permitted to board his flight.

Pity you didn't find out what actually happened before posting this
instead of relying on some 'report'.
FYI: eyewitnesses were on tv last night and from all accounts:
a: RS had been working the crowd at the airport who were just loving
it;
b: the 'victim' was being a loud mouthed jerk for some time;
c: the 'assault' was more of a light tap.

Not quite, Kip. The question remains: What was Mr Scebe (AKA "the
victim") doing at Phoenix airport?
