Sean gets physical…!
What are those, a pound each!?!? Come oooon!
Sean Kelly got his sweat on while working out with Sergio at Body by Sergio. Looks like he was a long way to go though before he can match up to the mighty Sergio. Every morning we listen to Sean’s big strong voice, and don’t worry he stands tall to back it up! But by the looks of it, I don’t have anything to be scared about anymore! Even I could out-curl and out-press this guy!
And what is he wearing? Who wears sunglasses when they work out?
Oooooh Sean, revenge of the intern is SWEET!
Here you go Sean…take it from Olivia!

Elvis Still Has It!
Elvis is on the air! Elvis Stojko that is. He will be calling Sean and Orlena this morning to chat about the Trenton Figure Skating Club and the Ice Show on March 14th!
Here’s a rundown of a man who makes Orlena blush:
-Born March 22nd, 1972 in New Market, ON
-Nickname:Terminator, E-Man, Quad Kid
He’s a record breaker! In 1991, Elvis became the first man to ever perform a quadruple toe loop, double toe loop combination jump, in competition. In 1997, Elvis again made Canadian history by becoming the first and only man to perform a quadruple toe loop, triple toe loop combination jump, in competition.
A Do-Gooder! In the summer of 1994, Elvis was chosen the first “Kids Ambassador” for Ronald McDonald’s Children’s Charities. In addition, Elvis has helped a number of other charities, including Parkinsons, The United Way, Variety Village and Sick Children’s Hospital. He is a supporter of the Special Olympics and frequently has been a spokesperson for other charities, as well as finding time to coach many of our young figure skaters.The Governor General of Canada, in January of 1996, presented Elvis with one of the highest awards in this country, the Meritorious Service Decoration, which is awarded in recognition of a deed or activity performed in a highly professional manner or of a very high standard that brings benefit or honour to Canada.
All in all – Elvis is a three-time World Champion, two-time Olympic Silver Medalist and seven-time Canadian Champion.
Get the story about his visit!

Corey Haim dead at 38. Orlena Cain shares her knowledge of him.
Canadian-born actor Corey Haim has died in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles coroner’s office confirmed the 38-year-old actor’s that the actor died around 5:15 a.m. ET Wednesday but wouldn’t give any details. An autopsy was scheduled to determine the cause of death.
Early reports suggested Haim died of an apparent accidental drug overdose.
Haim appeared recently in a TLC reality show called, “The Two Corey’s” which constantly showed Haim unstable and unpredictable. That may be a side that has been perpetuated in the media, but there is a very soft, sincere and caring side to Haim that has been washed away by his struggles with drug abuse.
I met Haim 5 years ago on the corner of Yonge and Eglinton in Toronto and at the time he was unrecognizable to many, inlcuding myself. He was living with his mom Judy at the time in a small 1 bedroom apartment just down the street from a pub he like to frequent. Haim at the time had come from rehab and had gained a considerable amount of weight. I chose to befriend Haim at the time and align him with former CFL athlete Fabian Rayne, who now owned his own personal training business. Rayne had met with Haim and had scheduled a training plan with him that would involve training, chiropractic care and a nutrition plan. Haim had told me about the reality show that was in talks, that would later be known as, “The Two Corey’s” and I had stressed to him at the time the danger of doing reality shows. As the rest of the world would see, Haim appeared unstable most of the time and very aggressive. His behavior was accurate for the most part, but during several walks with Haim we would talk about the things that bothered him most, including how he felt about the many bridges he burned and the people that he wronged, due to his drug abuse. We hung out on a few other occasions with a few other people in the industy, several people wanted to help him make his way back. We had dinner with Steve and Tanya Anthony one night, but Corey would try to act all suave and cool around people and then quickly apologize for his behavior later on. HE could never quite be himself around crowds of people and opted to showcase his alter-ego instead of letting down his guard and be real.
It was quite sad and I really felt for him. I tried my best to steer him on the right path and give him an honest friendship. But, Haim soon packed his bags and headed for LA to begin his climb back to Hollywood fame.
When I heard the news this morning come down the wire, I was truly saddened by what happened, because like so many other people who struggle with drug addiction, his battle was a long one and one that he could not seem to get beyond. I had hoped he would.
Haim appeared in movies Lucas, Lost Boys, License to Drive and recently shot American Sunset. ET CANADA spoke with him…..watch the video.
