Wow, first the 41 year old Hell's Kitchen Season 2 Runner Up dies of a gunshot wound a couple of weeks ago, now this. Only 25. Tragic.
It seems somewhat weirder when "reality" stars die because the public "knows" them for who they are, not as an actor or whatever.

I was catching up on my celebrity gossip this morning and here is an interesting bit for "Skating with Celebrities" fans.

VH1 is doing a few new shows this fall, and one of them is going to be interesting...from the futon critic...

AMERICA'S MOST SMARTEST MODEL

Beauty is a double-edged sword. It seems to be a commonly accepted notion in today's world that an inverse proportion exists between brains and beauty -- the prettier someone is, the less intelligent they are expected to be. And no one has it worse than models. But is this assumption really true? Do smart models exist, or does a life devoted to getting by on one's looks make a person stupid? Now, VH1 will attempt to answer this burning question in "America's Most Smartest Model." Hosted by celebrity fashion expert Mary Alice Stephenson and Emmy Award winner Ben Stein, this reality competition series brings together fourteen models, (7 men, 7 women) all of whom think they are the perfect combination of beauty and brains. In every episode the 'himbos' and 'bimbos' will face challenges that put both their overall intelligence and beauty to the test. In the end, only one model will prove that they are more than just another pretty face and take home a $100,000 prize and the coveted title of "America's Most Smartest Model."

LMAO@ above 2 posts^^^



Is anybody here a fan of Mike Rowe and his show "Dirty Jobs" on Discovery? It's one of my favs and I was on youtube trying to find his interview from a long time ago when he was on "The View". I couldn't find it but I stumbled upon these 2 segments that were never aired on DJ. It's too weird for words.

This week I've been re-watching "The Family" on Fox Reality. I've so enjoyed it and I love the interviews they intersperse of the family and staff. Now that they've seen the show and it's been a couple of years, hearing what they have to say has been amusing.

what a great name: Most Smartest mmmmha ha ha ha

BTW I have a confession to make. Here we go....I must admit that I killed a bunch of brain cells watching Living Lahaina this weekend. Wow...while half of me was loving how hot some of the guys were, the other half was saying to my mid thirties brain : Where are those boy's mothers????????

Yes, this is my random post of the day...

Is there going to be a new season of Surreal Life starting soon on VH1? I was just curious because it looks like they're showing a marathon of the last season on there now. Sometimes they seem to tend to do that before a new season starts. I haven't really heard anything as to whether they're doing it again or not.

They have "The Family" on now?? - I LOVED that show! One of the all-time funniest TV moments was on that show - the blind-driver golf cart race, when they ran into George's viewing stand! We laughed until we cried!!

Did anybody catch the new episode of "Dirty Jobs" last night? I feel so duped. I should have realized what was going when they kept showing the front of the Ford truck. For an hour, we were being set up for a Ford commercial.

Deeper explanation of why I was so disappointed in "Dirty Jobs" this week.



------------


"Dirty Jobs" is one of my fav Discovery Channel shows, along with Mythbusters, Deadliest Catch, and a couple others.


Anyway, last night the first new ep in several months of "Dirty Jobs" finally airs. I was so looking forward to it. I just love the host, Mike Rowe.


The show starts and the subject for this Dirty Jobs ep is putting up billboards. They started their work, but the job just didn't seem dirty to me. It seemed a little dangerous, but not dirty. Then another hint that I was being duped, and can't believe I ignored, was when they kept showing a close-up of the front of the Ford pick-up truck they were using to move supplies.

So, they get the non-dirty job of getting this billboard up, and then at the very end they reveal which company bought the billboard space.

Guess who? Yep! They reveal a giant Ford Pick-up truck ad.

Dirty jobs this week was nothing but an hour long Ford commercial.

I feel so duped and disappointed.

Did anybody else see it and feel the same way? I am so disappointed in Mike Rowe. Yeah, I know he is the new Ford spokesperson, but this was just too much.

Thank goodness I found something to watch that doesn't dumb me down. Even though it is a repeat I'm enjoying watching the Mole again on Fox Reality. Why oh why did they cancel this show. Bring back the MOLE!

Kc103:

<<According to a posting on the GameSpot.com web site, '80s rocker Lita Ford is among the celebrities who will take part in the seventh season of VH1's "The Surreal Life", a reality television series that sets a select group of out-of-the-spotlight celebrities and films them as they live together in a mansion in the Hollywood Hills. Other stars that have supposedly been cast to appear in the show include wrestler "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Playboy Playmate Tina Jordan, poker player Phil Hellmuth Jr., rapper Bushwick Bill, Tanya Roberts (actress), Dabney Coleman (actor), Carrot Top (comedian), Niki McKibbin ("American Idol") and Chris Wink (Blue Man Group co-founder). It should be noted, however, that Lita Ford's appearance on the show has yet to be confirmed by any of the representatives for "The Surreal Life".

The sixth season of "The Surreal Life", which recently finished airing on VH1, featured POISON guitarist C.C. Deville alongside WHITESNAKE frontman David Coverdale's ex-wife, Tawny Kitaen, plus Steve Harwell of SMASHMOUTH; actor Sherman Hemsley; Playboy TV's covergirl Andrea Lowell; and Alexis Arquette.>>
Info from Blabbermouth.net

I read elsewhere that it is slated to begin October 22nd.

I was coming to say the same thing, Csnog! It's the first season, with Anderson Cooper, and we're watching religiously! :-) It's actually more fun watching when I already know who the mole is b/c I evaluate that person's actions much differently than I did the first time around.

Yes, it's a different experience watching every move the mole makes. Anderson has a funny streak that I didn't notice the first time around.

Even though I know who the mole is, I still don't see how the person is sabotaging the tasks yet. I just love Anderson's humor, looks and voice.

I watched the Mole last night too (Did I only miss 1 epsidoe before that?)

Watching it just made the miss this show and Andersen even more. Watching him be serious on CNN just isn't as much fun.

Brenda, You missed the first three episodes that I know of.

There are many writen clues that we miss but I see some of them now. Clues that tell us who the Mole is.

Oh bummer. Okay, well I hope they start rerunning over at the beginning again after they run the whole show through. That's what they do with TAR.
