The Golden State lost its luster for Jillian Michaels.

The Los Angeles-born fitness personality opened up about what inspired her to move from her home state during an interview on “The Sage Steele Show,” released Wednesday.

Michaels told host Sage Steele that California was “getting too crazy for me,” citing recent legislation that included the decriminalization of sex work and gender-affirming care for transgender children.

“I grew up here. I’m a woman. I’m a gay woman. My mother is a Jew. My father is an Arab. I have a black child. And believe it or not, my son is half Latin, even though It doesn’t look like it,” said Michaels. “I have a million cards in your game of woked Victimology Poker. And if I leave California, you might have lost your (expletive) mind. Just maybe. For example, if you let me run away from home, things might have gone way too far. “

‘The Biggest Loser’ trainer, who now lives in Miami, went on to criticize some of California’s ‘baffling’ laws.

“We’re decriminalizing everything, which I would probably be fine with, but we’re not regulating any of it,” Michaels said. “So it’s like, okay, you’re going to decriminalize sex work, but only so that women can legally hang out on the streets, not to keep them safe, not to make them pay taxes, not to, you know, force them on a regular basis check for STDs, not to take the pimps out of the equation.”

Regarding gender-affirming care, Michaels condemned legislation that allows children to “irreparably change their body(s).” As a medical practice, gender-affirming care includes everything from talk therapy to hormone therapy to (in rare cases) surgical procedures.

“If my son came to me and said, ‘Mom’ — or my daughter — ‘I think I’m trans.’ I’d say, okay, you know, if you want to dress like that, you want me to call you whatever you want, dress up, fine. I love you, I’m cool. ‘You do that as long as we’re safe , but we won’t change your body until it’s fully developed. I’m sorry.’

Michaels concluded, “It’s madness to me. I can go on and on.”
