Steve Harvey: Pardon Me, But I’m Feeling Myself

January 18th, 2008 | Posted in Celebrity Gossip, Magazines

Steve Harvey
Steve Harvey is showing off his new look on the cover of the latest issue of Jet Magazine.

In the interview, the actor-comedian says he felt the need to get his sexy back after talking to a listener on his radio program, “The Steve Harvey Morning Show.”

“The girl said to me, `Steve, you’re 50 and you are over the hill,’” Harvey recalls. “I started thinking, `Wow, I am over the hill?’ I said `OK, I got to do something to stop this line of thinking. Because at 50, I should not be thought of as over the hill. At 50, a man ought to feel that he is on top of the hill.’”

He hired a personal trainer and now works out five days a week at his Atlanta home.

“I had a potbelly and love handles,” says Harvey, who’s lost 13 pounds. “I’ve been telling people you can be 50 and fly, but when I took my clothes off, I wasn’t looking fly.”

Harvey, who recently celebrated his 51st birthday, defines “fly” as looking great, but also being healthy and spiritually strong.

“Shaving my head was more of a spiritual thing for me. I wanted to be free,” he says.

Well, I never thought I would see the day when Steve Heavy got a decent haircut. The eraser fro is finally gone - hallelujah!
