Biggest Loser Arrested

Official booking photo Shanon Thomas, who is a competitor on the current Biggest Loser, has been arrested in Center Line, Michigan. She is accused of throwing flour in the face of her tenant.
Flour? She really should be using a weapon with fewer calories.
Though the incident happened December 16, Thomas was arrested and arraigned Tuesday. According to the report, she yelled at tenant Michael Nolden to turn down his television, then broke Christmas tree bulbs and finally hurled flour at him. He has since moved from the basement room.
Thomas denies the allegations. She informed the judge that Nolden threw a pan in her direction and "he told me to get a pizza" apparently mocking her efforts on the show. (Them's fightin' words!) A not guilty plea was entered on her behalf. She faces up to 93 days in jail. No trial date has been set.
Coincidentally, the new season of the popular program premiered last night.
