Heba from The Biggest Loser needs to shut her yapper

by Jonathan Toomey, posted Oct 29th 2008 5:20PM

Heba Salama from NBC's 'The Biggest Loser.'And no, before someone says it, she does not need to shut her yapper because of her love/hate relationship with food... although, that probably wouldn't hurt. Now before I say something else that may be construed as offensive, let me preface all of this with exactly what I said the last time I complained about someone on The Biggest Loser:

"Because what I'm about to write may come across as sounding harsh and insensitive, let me preface all of this by saying that I love The Biggest Loser and have nothing but the utmost respect for the contestants and what they go through on the show.

In a world saturated with reality shows, The Biggest Loser is one of the few that still comes across as "real." You can't script a 100lb. weight loss."

OK, the formalities are out of the way, so let's get to the point: why is Heba being such a bitch?!?

Heba (or as I call her, "Satan's Refrigerator") has taken the act of bitchiness to an entirely new level. After this past Tuesday's episode, I'm rooting against her for the remainder of the season. The truly sad thing about this entire situation is that if she really isn't a mean person, then that would mean that it's just far too easy to manipulate her. So if that is the case, then all of her "I'm smart and know what I'm doing" talk is falling on deaf ears because she doesn't have a clue. Then again, it could also just be years of repressed anger rearing it's chubby head.

After she called out Phil in the kitchen for "hating her," I couldn't help but laugh. Consider where she's getting her info - one of only two "couples" who are still on the same team! Vicky and Brady! Hasn't it crossed Heba's mind once that she might be getting played? She took one conversation that Phil and Brady had and somehow it turned into a manifesto of true hatred? Brady was in the middle, so you do the math.

Whether any of this would make sense to her or not, what it boils down to is how she chose to handle the info - with the bitch switch turned way up. She could have been far more pleasant during her confrontation with Phil, who's arguably one of the most timid guys this show has ever seen. Does he seem like the hating type?

As much as I'd love to be a fly on Heba's wall to hear what she's thinking when the cameras are off, the more I think about it, I'd prefer not to if only because I'm terrified that she'd bust out some mountain yeti reflexes and eat me. OK... well not really, but Heba does need to get her act and her facts straight ASAP or her erratic behavior is simply going to add fuel to Vicky and Brady's argument to vote her off the next time they lose a challenge. Heba's a fool if she thinks Amy will side with her when the time comes. Take some of your own advice Heba: shut-up and lose weight.

I called her Heba the Hut (after Jabba the Hut) my mom called her Heba Hubba. She was so excited when Michelle won our neighbors called to see if she was being murdered.

Hebas recent interview shows that she hasn't changed a bit, even blaming the editing, etc. She infers that the voters have too much time on their hands.

If she and Vicki do not watch the show feeling ashamed of themselves than they have no heart and care for no one but themselves. Heba talks lie upon lie upon lie. She thinks she's better than she is. She totally made that stuff about Phil up 2 screw with people and get her way. She has made Biggest Loser into something it has never been known for... backstabbing. People were always there for each other before, no matter what team they were on!

Wow, I didn't think I could despise someone as much as I do Heba. She really is an ugly person through and through. Ha, if she really had a competitive nature like she said she did, she never would've let herself gain that much weight. And the way she rolled her eyes and shook her head when Michelle lost 9 lbs. What a selfish and arrogant bitch.

Wow! I'm sitting here watching today's episode of Biggest Loser (Dec. 9) and I can't believe the show is now trying to rehabilitate Heba with some heartfelt scenes with Bob. She's a total crapbag and the producers are to blame for trying to inject more "Survivor" like drama into the show. It's a good show about weight loss, not a competition show. I loathe Heba and hope instead of losing weight, she loses her mind and ends up in a retard bin (too harsh?).

Heba & Vicky have ruined the show for thousands of viewers. I was a huge fan and watched every season - watching would give me the extra incentive to get on the treadmill or go for a walk. Now, when I watch all I feel is upset I'm mad that rotten people keep succeeding and I'm mad that deserving good-hearted contestants are kicked off. My husband stopped watching weeks ago and I think I''ve taken all I can stomach from these unpleasant women. What a way to ruin such a usually inspirational show for drama - if this was NBC's intention - I think it backfired and in a huge way!

I thought it was me and it upset me to dislike anyone I didn't know. Reading this has made my day because I just can't stand Heba and so happy you here I'm not alone.. She's playing the game her way alright, the only way she knows. Every week I wait for her to get cut. I wonder if her fellow players understand that she wouldn't flinch and cut them out when she no longer has any need for them and thinks she will win. Now is this the time before it's to late before she or hubby set themselves up to be the last two still standing..
Aloha Heba
