Title: RIP Joanna Thomas
Post by: Ron on April 27, 2020, 11:48:49 AM
From Isabel - I’m speechless right now to learn the passing of IFBB Pro Joanna Thomas. She was a phenomenal bodybuilder with such a beautiful structure. I remember first meeting Joanna when I was a amateur bodybuilder. I drove down from Orlando to see her in Fort Lauderdale. I went to her house, and here walks out this blonde short musclewoman with a lot of spark. She was very passionate and hardcore about bodybuilding. She taught me about posing and being super girlie on stage. After that meeting we became friends. I remember when I was in Cali and she somehow got me into to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s birthday dinner where I first met Arnold and his wife Maria Shriver. I was mind blown as I was only 23 yrs old at the time, and I’m meeting the Gov. of California and the greatest bodybuilder of all time not to mention the Terminator lol. She always wanted to see me do well, and always gave me a lot of support as a friend. We had some great laughs and good times. She was a good friend with a big heart, and will be missed. ❤️🙏

From Derwin - I'm very shocked & saddened to have just received news of the passing of Joanna Thomas, the British IFBB Pro Female Bodybuilder who became known worldwide after being featured in TLC's "Supersize She". She had been struggling with health issues for quite some time since her retirement & return to the U.K., of which she seemed to be slowly turning the corner on towards finding some happiness & peace of mind away from the spotlight, which makes this news twice as sad. R.I.P."

From Amanda - Very sad news... IFBB Pro bodybuilder Joanna Thomas passed away yesterday in her apartment in the UK. This has been confirmed by her family. Cause of death unknown at this time. Joanna was a former training partner of mine when she lived in Florida and a very dear friend of almost 18 years. She will be very missed. Thanks for always telling it as it is and being an unconditional friend. Love you Jo. May you now Rest In Peace.

Wow, she was only 43. Seems she was having some physical problems recently - https://www.gofundme.com/f/get-joanna-mobile .

If anyone is interested, here is the TLC documentary they did on her and the Ms. Olympia years ago, "Supersize She" -

Joanna Thomas from the UK?  Yes, remember that documentary. It was shown on British TV years ago. 43 is no age.

What?!

I'm speechless.  Or maybe that's technically incorrect.  But I'm flabbergasted.

That documentary on Joanna [on TLC, I believe] was sad.  You could tell that her parents didn't want her to lose her femininity, but that Joanna obviously had great aspirations as a female professional bodybuilder.

Wow that's young. I'm curious if her "lifestyle" had anything to do with it. RIP

Not to piss on the dead but she basically transitioned from woman to man. Google her late career pics.

Pretty sure most women bb will become miserable after when they realize.

Yeah, that was mine too. She seemed pretty upset in that gofundme. That, plus being lock up with your thoughts during this quarantine could be rough stuff.

This. I saw an interview with her and her voice was as deep as any guy's.

She was still borderline attractive when she first came to venice, but the voice had already started to sing the blues. but she seemed a like a nice enough girl, was with another Joanne, Joanne Lee another english girl living the scene in Venice, Jo was pretty cool good to see she finally got out of there and on with her life.

I saw her at the NABBA NW early 90s, she was with Diane Royale, if anyone from the UK remembers Diane competing it wasnt a shock to see the route Joanna took..

She was doing the private wrestling thing - for extra, you could have fucked her for sure. I actually considered it :-\

From the 90s mass monster era, denise masino and a couple of other porno focused ones took the best career choices.

They didn't need to focus on high dose cycles for shows, and kept consistent money in from porn, wrestling schmoes and letting the odd rich one deepthroat the clit

Whereas the other poor lasses destroyed their lives for nothing.

Denise Masino developed a hunger and
conquered women’s bodybuilding until she retired.

They look bad when they're lean but when they have higher bodyfat they look like any other implant. They lose so much fat all you see is the implant and not the fat surrounding it.

  They’d look better if they got the implants after a cut, not before

Under the muscle breast implant would not look like that but maybe bodybuilders can't have that.

Any plastic surgeons on Getbig?
