Who is this John Basedow?


He keeps showing up on late night TV
There's something about him I find very creepy. Plus he pitches workouts like he invented it.

4. His ads clearly state that he is a "Fitness Celebrity".

5. I'm sure he knows what he's talking about, but...
he does have a creepy kind of vibe to him. It's hard to put a finger on it.

7. Almost looks like he was cast from plastic
I wonder if the Ken Doll physique extends South of the border, if you know what I mean and I think you do.

8. Yeah...thank you. He has this plastic look about him.
That's the word I was looking for. Personally, I'll hold off speculating what he looks like "South of the Border". :-)

9. If you could put a finger on it
you'd have to wash it. He looks especially creepy now that he got his hair frosted.
