Suzanne Somers – Thighmaster

Some have credited Suzanne Somers as being the person responsible for the infomercial. Without her, we would then never know the joys of Shake Weight or ShamWow. We can take our hats off to her as a trailblazer!

It was arguably her role as a spokesperson of the ‘Thighmaster,’ a toning device for your legs. However, the device does not offer improved strength in any functional way since it is a repeated motion that is very specific to the device itself. With someone like Somers promoting it, though, we are sure it managed to sell anyway!
