Oh Great! Another VH1 Show With Has-Beens
I think it's time for a VH1 re-brand. Don't get me wrong, I'm the biggest sucker for mindless television, but VH1 has just announced another show, with yet, MORE HAS-BEENS. Sorry pals at VH1, but it's time you hung up the has-been hat for now...or at least get a new batch of has-beens, I'm sick of seeing recycled out of work actors.
Their new show they just announced is a series executive produced by none other than, recycled heartthrob Scott Baio, in which eight male teen idols from the 80s and 90s live together in a house and get life coaching from industry pros to see if they should continue their career or hang up their hats. Basically, it's the surreal life with has-been models...so really, it won't even be interesting because models don't talk for a reason, they don't have much to say! It's supposed to air next year sometime, and I'm sure I'll watch it, but give me some NEW trash television VH1. No more Scott Baio induced comas, please!
*Note: I really need to stop blogging after certain hours, bitter Nads comes out when I'm tired.

SEEING RED: Iron Man & Redbelt
Comic book adaptations are notoriously difficult to achieve with exceptional results. The two outstanding contributions to the cinematic world of superhero films are Sam Raimi's Spiderman series and Guillermo Del Toro's Hellboy. Chris Nolan's Batman Begins is serviceable (granted, to many it is an exceptional film), and Bryan Singer's X-Men flicks work on at least a mechanical level. What is noteworthy, however, is that the artistic success of these films is directly related to the inherent artistry of its director, in general. Iron Man director Jon Favreau, is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a cinema artist, and the picture suffers because of this.

The Season Finale Of The Bad Girls Club
Do you guys watch this show? I just recently became obsessed, and I wish I was with it from the beginning. They told me this is the "going out with a bang episode" because Tanisha is still about about her jail time and blames Hanna, Naveen and Darlen for what happened. Drrrraaaammmmaaa!
Either way, the season finale of The Bad Girls Club is this coming Tuesday on Oxygen at 10PM ET/PT
Here's a teaser:

I'm So Happy I Could Cry
I've been waiting for this day for a long time, Paris Hilton's hair extensions are here! I can finally have the long flowing blonde hair I've always wanted, it's just a clip away. It pays to dream big, because dreams really do come true.
In all seriousness, how do I get a piece of this action? I can maybe brand my own eyebrow extensions to make it a unibrow. Just clip it on and viola: Bert's sister. It'll be cooler than the eye patch.
The Ugly Betty Crew Is Placing A Full Page Ad In Tomorrow's Variety
The crew of Ugly Betty is so upset, that they've wrangled the troops and took out a full page ad that will run in tomorrow's Variety paid by the Ugly Betty vendors begging Arnold Schwarzenegger and the state officials to keep production local. I understand it's a bit much, but I fully support their decision to do this, because I'm sure a lot of other productions will start to make the move too. I'm not against productions being in NY at all, in fact, I don't know why there aren't more show in NY, but I do think that California should also have some sort of a tax incentive, after all this is where most of studios are. I know this doesn't affect a lot of you because you're not in California, but people complain about how poor our California economy is and how it's slipping, and they're still driving business away. At the end of the day, we elected our governor, so I guess we'll have to deal with him.

American Teen, Rock The Cradle, and Other Stuff
Hey Gasmii, I normally don't blog about movies, but I do have to say that I saw the most amazing documentary last night, American Teen. It got the Directing Award for a Documentary at Sundance this past year, and I fell in love with all of the characters. The film comes out July 25th, but if you're a teen junkie like I am, I urge you to see it. It totally took me back to high school again. I was told that I may be able to do interviews with the teens, fingers crossed!
Here is the trailer (I swear nobody put me up to this, I loved it so much I'm really backing this film):
In other things, I'm going to the Rock The Cradle finale tonight, so hopefully I'll have some good stuff for you guys by the weekend. The finale is live at 10PM ET/PT so check it out on MTV, and maybe look for me there.
Britney Gets To See Her Kids

Hollywood Junket Queen: Speed Racer
Hey Gasmii, I have a new gig for Maniatv.com, and Tvgasm has partnered with them so we can share content for my new show. Sooo, my new show is called, Hollywood Junket Queen, and the show is exactly what it sounds like, I go to junkets, red carpets, and do my thing. Anyway, check out ChannelGasm or ManiaTV for my first episode where I interview the cast of Speed Racer, and many others on the Red Carpet. The one-on-one interviews are at the end of this video.
Ugly Betty Is Moving To New York
Seems more realistic for that show to be set in New York anyway, but it's not a creative move. The Ugly Betty Production is moving to New York due to a huge increase in the amount of a film tax credit (approx 35% refund). The production found out this past Monday that they were moving, and it was very upsetting to a lot of the actors as well as the whole production.
What does that mean for the future production of the show? Unless people are willing to move, Walt Disney Co' ABC Studios is expecting approx. 150 crew members to lose their jobs. So, production people in New York get your resumes together, cuz Ugly Betty is movin' to da city.

Audrina Wants To Be A Movie Star
This has got to be a joke! Audrina, a movie star??? She is actually the worst actress next to Heidi on The Hills, but now she wants more. She just fired her agents at UTA and hired APA to help her get out and get more attention.
Her new agent, Jonathan Perry said, "We only just started working with her, but are already in talks for a feature film."
I actually felt bad for her "left out" syndrome after last night's episode, but come on...she comes off like she's as dumb as a box of rocks...how is she ever going to memorize any lines when she can barely remember her lines on a "reality" show?

Magical Elves Will NOT Produce Runway On Lifetime
Wow, this is huge news. I heard it yesterday, but didn't have all my ducks in line and the facts straight, but it has been confirmed that Magical Elves, the company that physically produces Project Runway (Weinstein Co. owns it) will not be producing the series when it goes to Lifetime. Magical Elves are responsible for Top Chef, Step It Up And Dance, Top Design, Last Comic Standing, and many more have just signed a first look exclusive deal with NBC Universal to produce broadcast, cable and digital shows. So, who's going to produce Runway when it goes to Lifetime, and can they do as good as a job??? Could it be Ken Mok, who produces Top Model, or the guys that produce Flav??? Either way, I think the show is in troubs.
The one positive note about Runway is that Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn are still attached to the show, but no word as of the rest. It could pose a problem since the show will be split between L.A. and N.Y. so Heidi can work close to her family. Lifetime is just caving in, giving everyone everything they want, and shelling it out. Only time will tell.
Mariah Carey's New Video With Her New Hubby, How Sweet
Here is Mariah's new music video with her new hubby Nick Cannon. She should have signed a pre-nup, and she shouldn't have flaked on The View yesterday so I could have heard all about her new marriage...How rude!
*Update: Mariah apparently did sign a pre-nup...good for her, I was worried for a second...thought she was going crazy again.
