After competing on Dancing with the Stars last year, it seems like Chaz Bono has been working hard to maintain a regular workout schedule, and it's definitely paying off! We spotted the star grocery shopping in Hollywood yesterday, and he appeared noticeably slimmer in these photos.

The other day he tweeted, "Thank you to GLAAD for nominating Becoming Chaz, my 1st media award nom, also very exited about DWTS and my interview with Letterman noms." Becoming Chaz is a personal documentary that followed the star's gender transformation, and it premiered at Sundance last year.

Chaz Bono got voted off of Dancing With The Stars, but he made Out magazine's 100 Most Influential Gay, Lesbian and Trasgender Men and Women list for 2011.

The mag commended ABC for putting Bono on the show despite backlash, and writes, "After years in which American Idol contestants were encouraged to keep their sexuality private, seeing Bono dancing with his female instructor was one of television's most inspiring images of 2011."

Adam Lambert, Tim Gunn, Brad Goreski, Lance Bass and Andy Cohen were also named.

Cher Disses DWTS Judges, Defends Son Chaz Bono

Oct 27, 2011 04:25 PM

Chaz Bono was spotted leaving Anderson Cooper's NYC studio today, and we already have a sneak peek at the interview, which airs next Tuesday.

The two phoned Chaz's mom Cher, and she shares her thoughts on his elimination from this week's Dancing with the Stars. Judge Bruno Toniolo called Chaz a "fluffy penguin" when judging him on Monday, and Cher sputtered:

    "I just thought they [the judges] were rude and it was gratuitous rudeness. I was just p***ed off. I was really upset. Not that Chaz was voted off but that they were so disrespectful."

Cher also spoke out regarding Chaz's decision to become a transgender.

    "As a mom, you have a child and then all of a sudden, you have a different child, but you have the same child. So it's very hard to kind of twist your mind around to the adjustment. But then when you look at it, and you're around your child, you just think, 'Oh, no difference.' Same child, different wrapping."

Chaz Bono Leaves Town After Dancing With The Stars Elimination

Chaz Bono dancing with the stars trip vacation transgender sneakers flowers DWTS

Looks like Chaz Bono is ditching LA for a colder climate!

After being eliminated from this week's Dancing With the Stars, we spotted Bono loading several large suitcases and a heavy jacket into a waiting car, on Wednesday.

The transgender activist had a very emotional journey on DWTS, where the judges commented more on his looks than his dancing skills.

Partner Lacey Schwimmer vented backstage after the elimination, “Every week he gets referred to as an animal. They always comment on his personality, and last I checked, this was a dancing show.”

Equally ticked off, Cher Tweeted: “Is it ‘DWTS’ or looking perfect ‘WTS?’ It’s easy for him to take cheap shots at Chaz! Let him come to ‘my’ stage. I could teach his little arm waving [butt] some manners! Critique Chaz’s dance style, movements, etc. But don’t make fun of my child on national TV.”

It seems a long vacation away from "it all" is exactly what Chaz needs.

Chaz Bono grabbed his dry cleaning in Los Angeles on Tuesday -- thank goodness!

We can't take any more of seeing Chaz in a white tank and basketball shorts; that's his outfit of choice every day at Dancing With The Stars rehearsal (and, as evident from these pics, even outside of rehearsal!)

But, luckily, Bono grabbed a black collared shirt to wear. Tonight is results night for 80s week (and the halfway point) of DWTS Season 13. Do you think Chaz will survive? Watch his performance below!

Lacey Schwimmer And Chaz Bono Shimmy Into DWTS Practice

After making it through another week (with the support of one famous mom -- Cher!), Chaz Bono and Lacey Schwimmer returned to the rehearsal grind in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The teammates showed up to practice with slightly different attitudes -- Lacey was practically strutting her stuff as she ecstatically bounced inside, while Chaz was busy concentrating on getting a entire case of bottled water into the studio.

It's important to keep hydrated when you dance as much as these two do!

We're digging Lacey's army look -- but how can she shimmy in those combat boots?!

Are you hoping Britney Spears guest stars on Modern Family?

Yes! She has a funny personality and would fit in perfectly on the ABC comedy.
No! She would be horrific on the show and would tarnish its reputation.
Don't know! But it would be a great way for the show to get even bigger ratings.
