The No. 1 person who doesn't need more energy: Richard Simmons

So in some ways, it couldn't be more appropriate: Richard Simmons, the face of a new energy drink. With his frizzed-out hair halo - he looks electrified (literally) at all times.
In fact, we challenge you to find video footage where he refrains from jumping, screaming, cheerleading, Jazzercising and otherwise "Sweatin' to the Oldies."
But when you think about it, of all people, does Richard Simmons really need an energy drink? I think we'd be more convinced if someone notoriously dour, like say .. Dick Cheney drank it, then started acting like Richard Simmons.
Anyway, Simmons is at Penn Station today to promote this new energy drink from Noon til 2p.m. Could it be his next Deal-A-Meal venture? Down-A-Drink?
We're heading over to Penn to find out. Video interview coming soon!
For now, let's watch the magic man in motion, doing a little step-touch-grapevine to Spencer Davis Group "Gimme Some Lovin'" ...
