Doug Blasdell: trainer on Bravo's "Work Out" dies suddenly
This is shocking news. Doug Blasdell, a trainer on Bravo's reality series "Work Out," died over the weekend after an abrupt hospitalization. He was just 44 and was openly gay on the show.
"All of us at Bravo are deeply saddened by the terrible news of Doug Blasdell’s untimely passing," the network said in a statement. "He was an inspiring trainer, an exuberant colleague who made the gym a very fun place each and every day and was extraordinarily warm in all aspects of his life. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to his many friends and colleagues at this very difficult time."
In July, AfterElton.com had a nice interview with Bladsell and I love this quote most of all: "It's a beautiful thing because it really focuses on being gay and the gay community in general. The people they picked represent our community very well. I mean, there's drama, of course. There is in any community. But the three of us give different examples of what it is to be gay. And none of it is negative."
