Richard Simmons fans got a special treat from the health guru yesterday. For the first time in years, they got to hear his voice in a special video posted to his friends, fans, and followers. "Hi everybody, it’s Richard!” he said in the clip, which featured a cartoon version of Simmons holding a megaphone. "Thank you so much for reading my messages. Roses are red, violets are blue. Do you know how much I love you? Have a beautiful day. Bye for now." While he has occasionally posted on social media, it was always by text - so it's good to hear his voice sounding strong and happy and just like his old self. Check out the voice message to the right.
