In the 80's, a lot of things were popular. Moose for your hair, exercise videos, long hair bands, weird clothing, and another was Richard Simmons.
Richard Simmons was considered an interesting person to say the least. He would have work out videos around the 80's. He developed an interest in fitness and for others to be healthy. He had a sad life and was overweight. He changed that all with videos to exercise.
Work out videos in the 80's were very popular back then. He wanted people to feel better about themselves. He was still around then, but by 1999....it's as if he wasn't seen much anymore. Don't get me wrong, he would make guest appearances on certain shows like "Who's line is it anyway?" as well as certain game shows like that
So? Where did Richard Simmons go? Did he die, fall off the face of the earth or even vanish? No. He is much alive but is no longer in the spotlight. Why? Because he doesn't want to be seen anymore since he is getting older. He's about seventy-four years old and has stopped doing exercise videos
He hasn't disappeared entirely since he is still seen on As Seen on TV products are still around. He has changed and aged like all of us do, but it doesn't mean he's completely gone, just moved out of the spotlight.
He has been spotted recently, still dressed flamboyantly and still his old self. He hasn't made many appearances recently but has been seen as a guest judge in an extreme weight loss. He mostly is seen as a guest judge on tv shows for weight loss. He also was one in RuPaul's drag race.
Richard Simmons hasn't really been "missing", he just has been out of the public spotlight for a couple of years. He's still around, not much of a household name like he used to be years ago. Although his legacy does live on through the 80's, it doesn't mean Richard Simmons is gone. It just means...his past exercise videos of the 80's still live on in our aerobic workout memories
