The quality on this next video isn’t very good at all but I had to share it with you. It is from his workout video: Aerobics with Richard Simmons and the Silver Foxes, 1986. It has his mom, including some other wonderful moms and dads from other stars, I thought you might enjoy.

Here’s a Richard Simmons fitness classic geared toward older people, which includes the sweatin’ talents of Shirley Simmons (mom of Richard Simmons), Pauline Fawcett (mother of Farrah Fawcett), Sal Pacino (father of Al Pacino), Jacqueline Stallone (mother of Sylvester Stallone), Harry Hoffman (dad of Dustin Hoffman). Ostensibly filmed on the deck of the S.S. Simmons in Club Health, this is one of the aerobically best hours of your life.
