Soccer player Tim Cahill features in a spoof exercise video to mark the launch of EA Games FIFA 14.

In the video Cahill appears in a parody of the cult 1980s series Aerobics Oz Style, titled Tim Cahills FIFA 14 Celebrations Oz Style.

Aerobics Oz Style was an Australian aerobic exercise instruction TV series shown in Australia, andy syndicated around the world, on early morning television. The series began in 1982 and was shot outdoors at scenic locations around Sydney. Wendi Carroll was one of the shows instructors.

The ad is part of a global campaign, created by Wieden & Kennedy,for FIFA 14. The Tim Cahill video is one of a number of FIFA 14 Celebrations from around the world which utilise football ambassadors in fun ways.

EA regional PR manager Snezana Stojanovska said: We wanted something uniquely Australian for this segment, something that was fun but still carried a message about new features in FIFA 14. The theme of our local video is a parody of the popular Aerobics Oz Style program which was popular in the UK & Australia during the 90s & early 2000s. Instead of aerobics moves, the segment demonstrates new celebrations in the FIFA 14 game one of the most popular and talked-about new additions to our game every year. We also felt Tim was perfect for this as he has a trademark celebration that also features in the trailer the shadow boxer.

Blast from the past!

Nashville star Connie Britton revealed to E!'s own Giuliana Rancic that she's had her fair share of odd jobs before she reached A-list status in Hollywood.

The actress, who is nominated for Lead Actress in a Drama Series, shared that she's "been really fortunate" in her career and was "thrilled" to be attending this year's awards show.

But it hasn't always been glitz and glam for Britton.

"I've worked at The Gap, I worked at The Limited," she confessed to Rancic. "I was appreciative for all those jobs. I probably didn't do them very well and I didn't do them for very long.

It's all about folding. I'm a terrible folder. I couldn't stay at The Gap for very long [due to that]."

"I ultimately taught aerobics and that was kind of how I got through it," she admitted.

"That's what I did. I wore leg warmers, I wore a bandanawithout question had to soak up the sweat with a bandana."

Baku (Azerbaijan), Sep 22 (IANS) Two more gymnastic disciplines - acrobatics and aerobics - will become a part of the first European Games which will be held in Baku in 2015.

The decision was made jointly with the European Olympic Committee (EOC) and Baku European Games Organising Committee (BEGOC), the Azerbaijan's Gymnastics Federation said Saturday, Xinhua reports.

The gymnastics at European Games in Baku will be presented in six types: artistic gymnastics, men's and women's sports gymnastics, jumping on trampoline, acrobatics and aerobics.

The President of the European Union of Gymnastics Georges Guelzec expressed his desire to include the acrobatics and aerobics to the program of the Games during his recent visit to Baku.

The competitions will be held from June 12 to June 28, 2015 in the National Gymnastics Arena.
