What’s Up with All the Matchmaker Shows?

Survivor started it all, but reality TV seems to constantly be looking for new ways to reinvent itself. Reality Run Down They moved from a remote tropical jungle to a concrete one with billionaire Donald Trump firing the weakest contenders. The Amazing Race tested relationships during a race around the world. Then there’s the good old rose ceremony on the Bachelor. But not all reality shows are about contests anymore. We can also peak into people’s daily lives. For instance, you can follow the life of former pop star Victoria Beckham (a.k.a. Posh Spice), see how “little people” survive in … Continue reading →

Familiar Faces Return For New TV Season

The new fall TV season can’t come soon enough—especially for couch potatoes who are tired of sitting through endless summer reruns. (I’m on “Big Brother” overload myself.) Hang in there TV fans, we’re just a few short weeks away from the new season and to get the excitement brewing I’ve got a rundown on some familiar faces making their way back to the small screen. Take a look: DREW LACHEY The former 98 Degrees member turned “Dancing with the Stars” champ is reuniting with the judges who helped him earn that tacky mirrored disco-ball trophy. As I mentioned in a … Continue reading →

New Career Moves For Female Stars

Wasn’t it Madonna who said the key to remaining in the spotlight is to constantly reinvent yourself? Seems as though some of her fellow stars are taking the Material Girl’s advice. JENNIFER ANISTON The 38-year-old former “Friends” actress is now the face of something purer than all that glitters in Tinseltown. Aniston has invested in bottled-water. It’s true; the star is now the face behind “smartwater” and will appear in posters and print ads promoting the beverage. But that’s not all; according to company executives, Aniston “co-created a limited-edition smartwater label,” which will be available in stores across the country … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: “The View” Feud and “Spicy” Refusals

The world of entertainment is fluid (to say the least), which is why blogs about certain celebrities tend to require updates on a weekly basis (save for Britney Spears in which case it’s an hourly basis). The following are new takes on subjects from my previous blogs featuring the ladies of a certain ABC chatfest and a reality star in the making. “The View’s” Youngest View Much has been written about the growing animosity brewing between “View” co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Rosie O’Donnell. Some media reports have the ladies clawing at each other during commercial breaks. While other reports (including … Continue reading →

A “Spicy” New Reality TV Show

Okay, try to refrain from rolling your eyes until after you’ve read this entire blog (or at least half of it). Just when you thought there was not a soul left in the world for TV producers to recruit for a reality series—BAM—one comes out of the woodwork. According to news reports, former Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham is reportedly in talks to appear in her own reality TV show. While nothing has been set in stone, a source close to the project tells news reporters that a decision is imminent. The premise of the show (which sources say is being … Continue reading →

Just Saying No

Spice Girl turned reality TV star Victoria Beckham is denying that she is adding to her clan. The girl group singer insists that she is not pregnant (yet) and is currently concentrating on spending “quality time” with her three young sons. Beckham sparked rumors a few weeks ago when she told reporters that she dreamed of adding a baby girl to her brood of boys. Further fanning the rumor flames was the fact that the rail-thin mom was noticeably staying away from alcohol at her birthday celebration last month. Earlier this week the spicy mama issued this statement in an … Continue reading →

Stars Branching Out (And it Ain’t Pretty)

Not again… Victoria Beckham went from being a model to a singer to the subject of a reality TV series to earning a bit part on a popular network series and now the 34-year-old Spice Girl is headed to the big screen. UGH! Hold on a minute and you might understand why David Beckham’s wife is set to make her movie debut in “Hardy Men.” According to reports, she was personally hired by the film’s star Tom Cruise. Which just goes to show you that it’s not what you know, but who you know in Hollywood that guarantees work. According … Continue reading →

Highs and Lows of Stardom

He’s an award-winning actor, a world-famous comedian, and an accomplished author and now the legendary Bill Cosby is adding another line to his resume—recording artist. The 70-year-old actor is just a few weeks away from releasing his first hip-hop album, but don’t expect to hear The Cosby Show star to rap on any of the tracks. The advocate of higher education has long claimed rap has a “negative” influence on society and didn’t want to taint his album with a sound that he says is “profane for no reason.” The actor’s new CD, Cosby Narratives Vol. 1: State of Emergency, … Continue reading →

Holly Jolly Celebrity Gifts—-Spice Girl Style

What did you get from your spouse this Christmas? Soccer star David Beckham gave his Spice Girl wife a gift I found very interesting. Not because it was priced at $1,500, but because it was made of paper and not precious gems. Victoria Beckham’s hot hubby dropped more than a grand to get a fashion book for his famous wife. The expensive (to me anyway—I’m sure $1,500 is stocking stuffer range for the Beckham’s) Christmas present, Valentino Garavani: First Name in Fashion is one of just 2,000 copies made available worldwide. Victoria’s was personally signed by the legendary designer, covered … Continue reading →

So Much Ballyhoo About The Beckham’s

In the course of my daughter’s recent illness she has gotten into a pattern of wanting a full body massage at around 2 a.m. It’s around this time that I switch on the news (mute it) and read the headlines that scrawl at the bottom of the screen. I have been shocked that for the past three nights one of the top stories has been David and Victoria Beckham’s move to America. The British soccer star and his “Spice Girl” wife’s move from England to California has been covered by all the major networks, the cable channels, and extensively by … Continue reading →
