They’re just like buses â€" you wait ages to see a washed up glamour model reinvent herself as a hardcore bodybuilder and then three come along at once.
OK, we don’t know who the third one is yet, but even two seemed unlikely this time last year.
Yet after the success of Jodie Marsh’s terrifying new figure, noughties glamour model Emma B has transformed herself too.
She claims to have started bodybuilding ages ago, but the timing of Emma B’s debut means that everyone is comparing her to Jodie.
But Emma doesn’t seem to mind, because she reckons the pair look really different. She told Now magazine: “I know Jodie and what she’s achieved is amazing.
“But I’m a bikini competitor, which is more about being toned and fit than building muscle. I’d never have the discipline to do what she’s done and that look isn’t for me. I love the body I’ve createdâ€
Um, if that look isn’t for Emma, 33, she should probably stop lifting weights and stuff, because she is well muscular.
Explaining how her transformation came about, Emma said: “I wanted to lose the 4st I put on during pregnancy. I was 9st 2lb before and I’m 5ft 9in.
“So I began training for a half-marathon and someone in my gym mentioned these competitions, which are massive in the US and Europe.â€
Emma has now started competing in various events, including a show called Muscle Talk last week, where she shocked the nation with her new figure.
Although she did well in the competition, Emma received a lot stick from online bullies who reduced her to tears.
She said: “People said I looked old and like a drag queen. It’s not for everyone, but I’m not emaciated.
“It really hurt and I cried and for hours.â€
Well we think you look great, Emma (and we’re not just saying that because we know full well you could beat us up).
