Britney Spears has been keeping busy during quarantine, staying fit through her at-home workouts but, in her latest exercise journal, she admitted that she accidentally set her gym on fire last year.
The legendary pop star has been uploading videos of herself working out and practicing yoga in her yard for months and, finally, it was revealed that she's been working out outdoors so often because her home gym was basically destroyed after a fire broke out six months ago.
"Hi guys, I'm in my gym right now. I haven't been in here for like six months because I burned my gym down," said Spears in the most casual way possible. Clearly, she's not all too bothered about it.

"I had two candles and, yeah, one thing led to another and I burned it down. So, I'm in here and I only have two pieces of equipment left," she added before filming her routine.
This entire admission happened in the first ten seconds of her video as she spoke rapidly about what happened, not paying the fire any mind. In her caption, she clarifies that it was an accident, in case anybody thought otherwise.
"It was an accident ….but yes …. I burnt it down," she wrote. " I walked past the door to the gym and flames. BOOM !!!!!! By the Grace of God the alarm went off after that and yippy hoorah nobody got hurt."

Joakim Noah Had Neighbors Begging For Condo Gym Ban
Joakim Noah’s workouts were proving to be too much for his neighbors at a New York City condo building.
Joakim Noah was recently signed to a 10-day contract by the Los Angeles Clippers and if anyone is happy about this move, it’s his neighbors in New York City. We say this because according to Page Six, Noah’s neighbors have been upset with him over the last few months due to his incessant workouts at the condo building’s gym.
In the report, it states that Noah allegedly used the gym as if it was his very own NBA facility. He even had various trainers come over who were blowing whistles loudly and disrupting the peace. These activities led residents to request Noah be banned from the gym. In the end, Noah never changed up his routine and the neighbors remained upset. Of course, this doesn’t matter now as Noah is no longer in New York City.

This situation is certainly bizarre as there are plenty of gyms in New York that Noah could have used. Regardless, convenience is everything these days so it makes sense that he would want to use what is closest to him. Not to mention, if you know there is an NBA star in your building, you have to expect these kinds of things are going to happen.
With the NBA under lockdown, we can only imagine how Noah is trying to train at this point.
LeBron James’ Biggest "Space Jam 2" Demand Revealed
LeBron James needed to stay in shape, somehow.
When LeBron James signed with the Los Angeles Lakers, it was a foregone conclusion that he would be leveraging his newfound home for a career in films. James had been in movies before but he had yet to star in one. With Space Jam 2, it was a given that he would be the leading man. Last summer, James got to spend much of his time at Warner Brothers studios where he filmed scenes for the movie and got to act alongside the Looney Tunes.
According to Ramona Shelburne, James had one big ask for the production crew. Much like Michael Jordan, James didn't want the production of the film to get in the way of his training regimen for this season. In light of this, Warner Brothers built a gym on their lot, which LeBron used every single day prior to filming. So far, this decision has paid off as LeBron and the Lakers are first place in the Western Conference.
At 35 years old, LeBron needs to stay in shape in order to keep up with the young guns of the league. Year 17 is no joke yet LeBron has managed to be one of the best players in the league. In some people's eyes, he may even be the MVP this season.
Some people thought LeBron's foray into movies would be a distraction but clearly, it's been a blessing in disguise.

“MANAGER WHO WAS GAY REFUSED TO LET ME N PLANET FITNESS BECAUSE OF MY PAST ACTIONS ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT GENDER,” wrote Boosie on Instagram, saying in the video that the man was also upset that he referred to one of their employees as a “f****t” He went on to post the address of the location in question, calling for a boycott of their services and claiming that they have roaches. “THEY HAVE ROACHES , N THEY SHOWER WATER DONT GET HOT,” he said.
Boosie Badazz has gotten caught in hot water over his previous comments about gender and sexuality. His rant about Zaya Wade is simply the most recent instance of it.
Antonio Brown Hilariously Responds To His Latest Gym Fail
AB is going to be feeling that in the morning.
There is never a dull moment in the life of Antonio Brown. The unemployed wide receiver has been all over the news throughout the last few months and he doesn't seem to be done, just yet. Brown is in the middle of an apology tour and he has been hard at work to make sure he can get himself a job next season. This means he has been in the gym quite a bit. Unfortunately, his workout went horribly wrong today after getting in a good bench press session.
As you can see in the clip below, Brown gets smacked in the head by a bar that was swinging downwards. The clip immediately went viral on social media and as it turns out, the embattled star is taking it all in stride. He even made fun of himself, referencing the brutal hit he suffered at the hands of Vontaze Burfict.
"This shit hits harder than Vontaze Burfict...... 315 gang MrBigChest," Brown wrote. Thankfully, Brown is able to maintain his sense of humor throughout this whole ordeal. We're sure he is still feeling the effects of the impact and we wish him a speedy recovery.
In the future, he'll certainly be looking to be more careful during his workout.

Jennifer Lopez & Her Abs Hit The Gym Days Before Super Bowl Halftime Performance
J-Lo’s abs just won’t quit.
Despite her widely-criticized Oscar snub for her critically acclaimed performance in “Hustlers,” Jennifer Lopez still has plenty to look forward to in the coming weeks (or, in this case, days). J-Lo has been working hard these past few months to prepare for her highly anticipated Super Bowl Halftime Show performance alongside Shakira. It seems like she’s been practically living at the gym to get as fit as can be for the occasion. Her most recent gym spotting was just two days ago, where she was joined by her husband and frequent workout buddy, Alex Rodriguez. J-Lo rocked a crop top and leggings, showing off her already incredible figure.

J-Lo’s performance prep isn’t all exercise, though. The superstar posted a video on Instagram last week from her halftime shown rehearsals. In the clip, J-Lo really gets into the spirit of the sport, as she imitates a football move over and over on the 25-yard line while she waits for her cue to begin rehearsals.
“Waiting for my cue like … Only ? days until #SuperBowlLIV! ✨? ✨ The countdown is on. Are you ready? #PepsiHalftime #SBLIV @guess @niyamasol,” she wrote in the caption. The NFL recently announced that a Super Bowl visual live album will be released featuring all of the artists performing at the event, including J-Lo and Shakira along with Demi Lovato singing the national anthem and Yolanda Adams accompanied by The Children’s Voice Chorus singing “America the Beautiful.” The Super Bowl LIV takes place this Sunday, February 2nd.
50 Cent Scolds His GF For Thirst Trap: "Why You Gotta Be Doing Sh*t Like This"
50 Cent wasn’t happy that his girl shared this video with her following.
We’ve said it time and time again… nobody is safe from 50 Cent‘s trollery. His own son learned that the hard way, getting disowned in front of the entire internet last year after Curtis Jackson pulled the plug on his relationship with his eldest. Thankfully, he’s still got love for Sire Jackson but there’s no telling whether that will last once the child grows older. 50 Cent grows tired of people quickly. He’s been embroiled in feuds with the people closest to him, including Young Buck who was in G-Unit with the rapper. While his jabs are clearly playful with his current girlfriend Cuban Link, Fif still goes hard on the woman and today, he went in on her again for posting a thirst trap video to social media.
50 Cent and Cuban Link have been dating since the summer, debuting their love at the Power season premiere event at Madison Square Garden. Ever since then, Cuban has found herself at the head of her man’s jokes on social media. This time around, there was no humor being spewed. Instead, Fiddy voiced his frustration as to why she would be hitting the ‘gram with such a provocative video instead of sending it directly to him text message.
“I just landed, now why you gotta be doing shit like this,” commented 50 Cent on the video of his girlfriend showing off her strong physique after finishing a workout. “You send this shit to my phone, not to instagram, what the fuck.”
At least she knows for next time… Y’all think she’s gonna get the strap because of this?
Miley Cyrus Goes Topless While Cody Simpson Films Her Following Joint Workout
Miley’s not too shy around the camera it seems.
Miley Cyrus and Cody Simpson have never been afraid to share their more intimate moments as a couple all over the Internet. The two of them made their relationship public last October, and have remained open and unapologetic about their love for each other ever since. On Wednesday night, Miley posted a mirror selfie video on her Instagram story of her and her boo at the gym, showing off their toned bodies. While Cody was busy doing jump squats, Miley lounged on a bench in rolled up shorts and a sports bra in the foreground as she filmed them both doing their thing. Miley captioned the video, “We have a different idea of ‘werking out,'” making a joke about Cody’s more productive exercise.
Miley appears topless in the next story, a video of her looking irritated and turning away from Cody while he films her. Miley explains her unimpressed expression in the caption of the video. “When baby f*cks up but wants you to listen to his song … Peep the plugs,” she wrote, referring to the barely noticeable AirPods in her ears she’s using to drown out Cody’s song. We can assume it was all in good fun, since the pair have been going strong since day one despite multiple breakup rumours. While Miley dealt with finalizing her divorce from Liam Hemsworth, Cody was by her side, and he even spent Christmas with Miley’s family.
