There are so many celebs with "reality" shows, I think it would be kind of interesting to see a celebrity IBS spokesperson go about their daily routine on VH1.

Hah. I'm actually supposed to start a modeling career later this year. I'm definately not saying I'll be famous or anything but ...it's going to be quite a challenge, since I have the bloating and everything. Sometimes I wonder if I should even go through with it. I don't know of any celebrities with ibs, but I really think they're should be more awareness. We could get more research, and maybe some help.

I think Cybil Sherphard had it. Also, Linda Carter's mother has it.

Kelsey Grammar's wife has it too. I actually wrote an email to Cybil Sheperd on her fan website asking how she deals (I read somewhere that she is a big fan of Zelnorm) - alas, she never responded. But whenever I watch a reality show, I can' help but think to myself, I guess these people don't have IBS. I mean, can you imagine a reality show with 10 IBS-ers living in the same house, cooking up our funny diets and spending hours in the bathroom and vegging on the couch with our heating pads and walking around looking insanely bloated? That would be too hilarious.

I also heard many, many years ago that Cher had it. Back then it was called colitis (that covered many bowel disorders). They said she had to spend lots of time in the pottie before her shows.
