Jerry Hall, the sexy, sassy supermodel & "ex-Mrs. Jagger" is choosing 12 men to compete for the opportunity to live her lavish rock 'n' roll lifestyle as a "kept" man. The lucky competitors will share in her life of luxury, accompanying her to star studded events, rock 'n' roll parties and socializing with her friends and family in London.

Okay, am I the only one that watched this? It's quite amusing, actually ...

Yes, I think this is going to be a fun hour. There are a couple of men who might shape up to Jerry's liking, and many guys who will be fun to watch but won't be there for long!

too true ... there are a couple that I think will be hilarious to watch. What did you think of that one guy that gave that picture to Jerry? Was he nuts or what? She said he had the potential to be a stalker, lol ...

When I first saw that she was doing this show, I was appalled. But then I got sucked into watching because it came right after the reunion show of The Surreal Life and now I have to agree that this could be quite amusing and enjoyable to watch! Here are my choices from best to least:

Jason ~ Unusual in his good looks and seems mature
Anwar ~ Adorable and funny
Austen ~ Obvious to make the final 2 or 3
Seth ~ Won't be the final pick but will be kept around for his humor.
Devonric ~ Vavavoooom baby!
John ~ A sweetheart & glad he got to stay but he doesn's have a prayer
Slavco - Good looking but is there anything upstairs?
Frank ~ Another sweetheart that won't last.
Michael ~ Another sweetheart but don't think he'll last
Maurizio ~ First glance, yes! Upon speaking, no!
Ricardo ~ Good looking but again, is there anything upstairs?
Brian ~ What the h---- was he thinking?!

I am like ya all...hadn't planned to watch but was sucked in after Surreal life...this show was pretty funny.

Jerry seems to be having a blast with it.

There are a couple hotties but Devon is YUM-ME!!

I stumbled onto the show because of the SL wrap up show. I watched and I’m almost speechless. I like that Jerri and her girlfriends aren’t taking this too seriously. I’m not sure why I came away from watching that show feeling icky.

I’m not sure what “kept” actually means but I thought there was some sort of sexual connotation? Ummm I might be wrong but there seemed to be a few non heterosexuals in the mix.

Kept means that the person is keeping you in a lifestyle in return for certain favors. Pays for all the expenses everything. Used to be called a gigilo or mistress.

The second episode was as funny as the first. Some of the men are likeable but others are just so fond of themselves it's a total turnoff. I don't know why they ever sent the short guys when Jerry is so very tall. Seeing them on the runway was a riot. Austen seems very well spoken ... and it's interesting that he was approached on the show to become a model.

VH1 says the second episode, with the runway competition, airs this Sunday, June 5th. Have they really run it already? Dang!

Yeah, I saw the runway one, it was great! If it is on again on Sunday I don't remind watching again. I am just annoyed because I watched the whole thing and obviously fell asleep during the commercial right before they told someone to get gone!

I read an article yesterday which said that VH1 was the ones who will keep the man, in other words, pay his bills for the new year.

I was taping the episode and my tape ran out after Jerry pointed to her pad and said, "He has to go." UGH!

Who was left behind?

Thanks.

Warning ~ SPOILER BELOW of who went in the 2nd episode.

It was Michael, a sweetheart but too quiet, I think, for Jerry's taste.

I'm really sorry she didn't get rid of Ricardo - hopefully next time. He's obviously only there for the screentime and could less about anything else. How funny, but not surprising, that Austen is the one given a card by a modeling agent after the runway show.

I'm still liking Jason with Anwar in a close second. He may not have the most beautiful body but to me, he seems the most well-rounded. Anwar is a hoot. I'm glad she kept John because he's so grounded, goofiness and all. And I'm glad John went with the shorter haircut - it makes him look so much better! I like Frank as well and hope she keeps him and Seth around for awhile.

This show is just too fun! I say Mauricio, Ricardo or Slavco are next to go.

I caught the runway rerun last night while flipping around, this is pretty funny stuff. You can tell that Jerry is getting a large charge out of the selection process. The tighty whities walk was hysterical. There are a couple of real hotties in the group (and I'm not talking about the posers).

I think I just figured out why I LIKE this show so much!

Unlike the clearly producer-scripted nonsense that goes on in the Bachelor/ette series, this one is all about the woman *calling the shots*, putting the boys through their paces (literally!) and in some rather sadistically entertaining way, it cuts through all the garbage of these matchmaking shows. There's no illusion of "true love" here. I love that!

I still don't get Anwar. He's obviously there to win the game, and he's funny. But why would he "come out" to the camera (saying he could fall in love with Ricardo), knowing that this show is about Jerry having a "Kept" man. I mean, doesn't a kept person normally have, um, physical relations with the person?!?

Or, to each his own I guess. But wouldn't he wonder what the viewing audience would think about him coming out - and - wanting to be kept by Jerry. It's obvious it's a game for him (and some others too I guess). But I think he will make it to the top four.
