Among the just-announced contestants on NBC’s weight-loss competition, “The Biggest Loser,” which returns on Sept. 11 are two Long Islanders: 40-year-old twin brothers Bill and Jim Germanakos.
The Germanakos are the first set of twins to compete on the show.
Bill, of Lynbrook, is married with three kids and works in medical sales. Jim, of Massapequa, also married with three kids, is a police officer. In his free time, he’s a volunteer firefighter and can be caught singing Sinatra songs at the local Italian bistro. Their goal, according to NBC, is not to become the “fat twins.”
