Bette Midler’s Las Vegas workout
Dec 17, 2008
Bette Midler has revealed that she sticks to a strict exercise regime for her renowned Las Vegas show; because it’s the only way she can stop her body from “falling apart”.
Despite being the modest 63 years-of-age, Bette is not going to let that get in the way of her frolicking around on stage doing what she does best.
The veteran entertainer debuted her Vegas show Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On earlier this year at the city’s renowned Caesar’s Palace venue and unlike some other stage shows this year, it’s gone down a real storm.
But in between rehearsals and shows you won’t catch this lovely lady laying around eating chocolate as she uses every spare second she has to undergo an intensive workout regime.
She says, “Looking after your health, looking after your voice and all that – it’s actually pretty severe. The show is not the grind, the grind is getting ready for the show… The hard part is the warming up and the doing the exercise and trying to keep your body from not falling apart… I’ve decided I’m a tough old bird”.
All I can say is, I hope I have that much ”˜get up and go’ in me when I’m half her age!
