It's one of the most eagerly anticipated events every season – "The Biggest Loser" makeover episode! Grammy Award-winning singing sensation Ashanti guest stars, along with celebrity stylist Jonathan Antin in the popular makeover episode of "The Biggest Loser: Couples" airing Tuesday, May 4 (8-10 p.m. ET) on NBC.
After four months at the ranch, the remaining six players learn from host
Alison Sweeney that they have lost a combined total of over 800 lbs. And after all that hard work, they're ready to be treated to makeovers and then show loved ones incredible reveals of just how far they've really come.
First,
The Players get $1,000 shopping sprees at their favorite stores to pick out new clothes that flatter their slimmer selves. Then they're off to meet celebrity hair stylist Jonathan Antin, who crafts new looks for each of them. After their transformations are complete, it's time for amazing reveals and emotional surprise reunions, when the made-over players show off their incredible new looks to loved ones flown in to help them celebrate their big day. Later the contestants and their guests return to the ranch, and are treated to an intimate concert with singing superstar Ashanti, who shares her uplifting music and her inspirational song "Shine."
After the makeover fun is over, it's back to work! This week's challenge finds
The Players climbing Jacob's Ladder cardio machines while suspended over a pool, with the winner getting a weigh-in related prize. One contestant struggles with his mental strength, but later, at the last chance workouts with trainers
Bob Harper and
Jillian Michaels, he proves just how determined he is to be in the final four.
Finally, two contestants fall below the yellow line at weigh-in, leading to a very emotional elimination as another contestant is sent home – but not before reaching a "Biggest Loser" first before they go.
