Richard Simmons has still got it

Ain’t nothing gonna keep Richard Simmons from shining. Nothing!

The eccentric fitness legend was casting a rainbow over a celebrity tour bus, greeting his adoring public, when a driver hit his leg. He screamed like someone was ripping a rhinestone off his bare skin, but when the driver got out of the car to check on him, Simmons assured him he was fine. “No, it’s bleeding, but don’t worry about it. The blood is dripping . . . No, it’s fine,” he said. “No, I’m fine, I promise. I’m fine, seriously!”

Check out TMZ’s video of the accident:

Always one to look on the bright side, Simmons tweeted, “AM TEACHING THIS MORNING AT SLIMMONS…NOTHING CAN GET ME DOWN.”

On his way to work out, he stopped for the paparazzi, striking a pose and revealing his bandaged knee. Girl can stick out a leg better than Angelina Jolie any day!
