Richard Simmons Gives Boy Pap a Complex

The patron Santa of chubby folks, Richard Simmons, made a gender blunder that unraveled a 14-year-old boy.


The paparazzi, including one pint-sized, curfew-challenged photog, caught the loquacious exercise guru outside his studio in Los Angeles over the weekend, where Simmons invited the paps inside for a little holiday refreshments.

Simmons seemed especially fond of the wee paparazzo, inquiring how old "she" is. Poor Austin was so horrified, he ran out of the shop. Eventually, someone set him straight. Or at least tried.

16. Poor photog kid. Don't worry, Austin - if that's your name - you'll get facial hair soon enough, along with lots and lots of bills.

17. If you don't want to be mistaken for a girl, get a freakin' haircut. You too, Richard. (Well, it's a start, anyway).

20. "Awww, well I'm pretty too so it's hard!" Awww, poor Austin! He shouldn't have run though because Richard really is very nice and it was an honest mistake.

22. Maybe he thought after inviting him for refreshments. Oh crap, I might get into trouble for trying to 'molest' him. Everyone knows I'm gay, if they think i thought he was a girl, they will know that wasn't the case.

24. Richard is a great guy and has made a fortune doing his act.

And tell the little "boy" not to dress and act like a girl and maybe that won't happen again.

25. Maybe the boy/girl planned this!

Oops, he did it again!

26. Why are you going after a person who is obviously not a pedophile and has helped many who weren't loved by the world...do you not have any limits? This is pretty damn disgusting to me TMZ. Although you didn't come out and directly say he was a pedophile the insinuation was there. Good job for attacking the good guy. Hey Harvey Levin, I wouldn't go there because you know you have a few skeletons in your closet...

27. If Harvey Levin has a skeleton in his closet, can I be one of them? i think he likes younger blonds.

sigh

30. Who would leave their kid with a gay blade like Simmons? I'd trust kids with Michael Devlin first.
