Brody Jenner made the boys on MTV’s Bromance grovel for his attention one more time with an event challenge which was supposed to showcase their personalities. Most did a half-way decent job with the time allotted. Femi went one step further by getting a tattoo (exactly like Brody) after his event.

They also were put through a dating contest with Lauren Conrad (who is just as hot but almost as boring as Brody himself).The whiner, I mean… ah, winner got to spend some quality time with Lauren and Brody.

Jered on left was a goner
In the end, Gary and Jered were the bottom two so they were blindfolded and Brody’s “real” friends shot the loser with a paintball execution-style in the alley of a Mexican restaurant. Poor Jered got “shot” and had to leave, losing his chance at a Bromance.
Bromance airs on Mondays at 9 on MTV

It doesn’t look like Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew worked for Chyna (Former WWF Wrestler Joan Marie Laurer) because after celebrating way too much for her birthday last Saturday, she landed in a Burbank hospital. According to TMZ, she was inebriated at the time of her admittance and couldn’t be evaluated until later. When they spoke to Joan in the hospital she said, “All I really want right now is a hamburger and fries right now.” …and how about a call to Dr. Drew also?
Chyna was one on the first season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew and had a hard time admitting she was an addict. Maybe this recent stay in the hospital will help.

Way back in 1992, MTV started a new generation of reality shows with their successful “The Real World” but now that there is a 23% drop in ratings among the 12-34 year old core demo, they have decided to overhaul the channel with 16 new reality shows over the next year.
According to www.variety.com, who quoted Brian Graden, president of entertainment at MTV Networks music channels, MTV’s new shows will “feature themes of affirmation and accomplishment. Our shows are going to focus less on loud and silly hooks and more on young people proving themselves. These are themes that are consistent with the Obama generation.”
Good luck with that. Insert heavy sarcasm here…

Wow! It’s finally here. The new lineup of I Love Money 2 is out and there will be 19 contestants. Among them, Leiline, Buckwild, and Saaphyri.
Ice
Remember them from the first season of Charm School? It should be interesting especially if any of the contests have to do with getting dirty, or in water, or something that involves breaking a nail. Ice is from Flavor of Love. These are just a few of the women set to contend for all that money.
Some of the eye candy for women will be former broken-hearted contestants from I Love New York (one of the few reality shows I have yet to watch) will be Onix, It, Buddha, and 20 Pack. Pictured here is Onix. Gee I wonder why I chose him to show as a sample for this new show.

They will be competing in mental and physical challenges for a chance to win a quarter of a million dollars. It will premiere on Monday, January 26, 2009 on VH1.

On Sunday nights Rock of Love Charm School host Sharon Osbourne wanted the girls to show the judges their “brand” on a t-shirt. Unfortunately this coincided with Heather’s untimely meltdown. I’m sure we don’t see all they do but for some reason Heather called out the other contestants on their past deeds. Maybe her script got re-written at the last minute and she couldn’t figure out what she had to say. Whatever! But all her incoherent babbling to Sharon raised a flag so she was eliminated and sent to rehab.
This was a boring show except for the t-shirt design competition. But it was probably a lot more fun to design than to watch someone design. Watching someone work on a computer is a snooze fest.

Gail Simmons knows what she’s talking about on Top Chef.

According to her bio on the Top Chef web site, she has been working for Food & Wine Magazine (since 2004), and is now in charge of special projects. She began her culinary career with food articles written in Toronto Life and Canada’s National Post. She’s also worked as a research and recipe assistant, and has contributed to several cookbooks. She received her formal training at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York.
Gail serves up good critiques of the “cheftestants“ creations and while she doesn’t have Padma’s exotic looks or sexy voice, Gail Simmons has a down to earth way about her when speaking to the contestants and makes the TV viewer feel like they have sampled the food themselves. She looks like us and I like that.

Last night, the Frat Boys

made my family laugh so much. Sorry, Dan but you were SO not made to be a soldier. Poor guy had to march with some Russian soldiers but he was so inept at it that he looked like he was a marionette and was being plucked by an extremely inept puppeteer. (Dan is the one with the glasses) I’m also curious as to why the show doesn’t let them buy amenities such as shoes with their own credit card? Maybe they’re afraid they will use it for parts pertaining to the race itself? Who know?
And we thought the cutesy brother and sister were goners for sure because of the cab drivers they chose. Driving around for an hour aimlessly sure must have worked on their nerves but they managed to place third and not last.
I’m surprised the Eyebrow team is still hanging in there. They have actually gotten along better than the beginning of the race and I can see them staying together afterwords.
My money is still on the bro/sis team but lets hope the last round didn’t shake their confidence.
