Celebrities studying martial arts?

[GreenCloudCLF]

Oh, come on.... this is a martial arts forum, and sumo wrestling is not among my disciplines. I'm currently taking thirteen (soon to be fifteen) classes per fourteen-day period. Even if I were on the All-Twinkies-All-The-Time Diet, how bad do you really think it could be?

It's not always about the weight. You could be a butter face...

What exactly *is* a "butter face"??

[TenTigers]

heeeyy...nice body.....
butterface....

I'll spill one, remember Tattoo from Fantasy Island? Hervé Villechaize was a long time student and friend until he took his own life back 92-93. He was a really cool guy and nasty with a knife.....

and pretty good with a trident, as I recall...

[BoulderDawg]

I guess a butter face is a big doughy type of face.....don't know. In any case I've seen girls with pretty faces however they had asses so large they couldn't fit through the door. Usually the pictures these girls show you are extreme close ups!

Sure would like to see a picture or two of a Martial artist who is one of those "fortunate few". In the mean time I'll look at a picture of "skinny" Sarah Gellar!

Everythng is hot *but her face*

Though not an American celebrity, I heard that HK actor Anthony Wong, known for his excellent, non-MA dramatic roles, is a practitioner of Tai Shing Pek Kwar.

This Anthony Wong? Anthony Wong is a cool dude.

Those are called "ice bergs" because you only see the top 10%.

You'd better get a "skinny" pic soon, because she just got pregnant!

Gisele Bundchen gets her kicks in jeans

Tom Brady [stats] better not ever get out of line, because the missus, Gisele Bundchen, is showing off some crazy kung fu fighting moves in the new issue of Vogue maggie!

Gi, a student at the Boston Kung Fu Tai Chi Institute, channels Bruce Lee for a piece called “Kicking It,” which has nothing to do with martial arts at all. It’s about what supermodels Gisele, Naomi Campbell and Karen Elson wear when they’re not working.

Surprise, surprise, Gi’s all about the jeans.

“I am the queen of jeans,” the Brazilian bombshell tells Vogue.

She also loves cashmere sweaters in neutral colors, and when she went shopping for new outfits with the writer, the first thing she bought was a baby tennis sweater (cashmere, natch) for her stepson, Jack .

Awwww, what a model stepmom!

long interview: here's the excerpt:

What do you do to keep in top physical shape?

I do different weight training regimens. I do some stuff called CrossFit, which is all functional body training. It’s a website called Crossfit.com, where they give you a workout for each day. It is just fantastic. I train MMA as a hobbyist at John McCarthy’s ultimate fighting school, which is so much fun to do. They also offer a CrossFit there too. So I bounce between that and of course doing different weights in the gym and stuff for the aesthetic body look.

WTF indeed, Gene! I clicked for the slideshow, but only got a slideshow of girlie stuff, not punches, chops or even ham-hocks. I admit, I fell for it

There was that single shot on the front page, though. You know, I'm starting to wonder if lifting your heel off the ground when kicking is actually the right way to do it... 'least that's what I'd think if my only exposure to MA was from pop media (excluding KFMag excepted!

LOL.... You see that, Oso? Next time you're doing your Crossfit class, you better make sure the guy behind you doesn't have a chainsaw in his gym bag.
