Want to know who’ll be on Dancing with the Stars?

by

I’m not a big fan of Dancing with the Stars or really any reality shows, but I know that many of you are so I thought I’d take a moment and give you the scoop on which celebrities will be appearing when the ABC show returns on Monday, September, 22nd.

Here’s the lineup and their dancing partners:

• Toni Braxton, singer, 40, and season one DWTS champ Alec Mazo
• Lance Bass, singer, 29, and Lacey Schwimmer
• Ted McGinley, actor, 50, and Inna Brayer
• Cloris Leachman, actress, 82, and Corky Ballas
• Warren Sapp, former NFL star, 35, and Kym Johnson
• Rocco DiSpirito, chef, 41, and Karina Smirnoff
• Kim Kardashian, TV personality, 27, and reigning DWTS champ Mark Ballas
• Maurice Green, Olympic gold medalist track and field star, 34, and two-time DWTS champ Cheryl Burke
• Misty May-Treanor, Olympic gold medalist beach volleyball player, 31, and Maksim Chmerkovskiy
• Susan Lucci, Emmy-award winning soap opera actress, 61, and Tony Dovolani
• Jeffrey Ross, 42, comedian, and Edyta Sliwinska
• Cody Linley, 18, actor, and two-time DWTS champ Julianne Hough
• Brooke Burke, 36, TV personality, and Derek Hough

Wow, Cloris Leachman, at 82 is the oldest ever contestant on Dancing with the Stars! I remember her best from shows like Mary Tyler Moore! I took a peak at her filmography and she’s been active in films and television shows from the 1940’s right up until the present. In fact she’s in three post production movies due out in 2008 and 2009. Good for her!





The writers strike is on!

by

Well it looks like the Writers Guild of America has gone on strike. I wonder how long it will last and how it will affect the shows that we’ve grown to love?

Word is that daily shows like Soaps and talk shows will be hit the hardest. Letterman and and Jay Leno are going into reruns as of today. Other shows will likely follow suit.

Apparently shows like Gray’s Anatomy and The Office stockpiled scripts in anticipation of this strike so they should continue to have material to work with through till January, but other shows where the actors are also writers such as 30 Rock may not fair so well. 24 and Lost may not start when they are supposed to and have a shorter season when they do start.

The last Writers Guild Strike in 1988 lasted 22 weeks! If this one lasts even half that long you’d better get used to Reality TV because that might be the only thing on!

How do you feel about the Writers strike?

Rupert Everett quits Reality program

by

British actor Rupert Everett walked out of a celebrity version of reality TV show The Apprentice after just one day, because he hated being treated like a Big Brother contestant.

The 47-year-old star couldn’t stand the intrusiveness of the cameras and microphones on Celebrity Apprentice, a show created for British charity Comic Relief.

He says, “It is just so different from doing a feature film. I went in with good intentions but I just could not cope with the Big Brother mentality.”

Everett was one of ten celebrities, including Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole, to take part in the show, which will be aired in Britain in March 2007.

Yard sale draws a crowd of 300 spectators

A quick update on Tori’s yard sale …

I told you the other day that Spelling was going to be having a yard sale on Friday morning at her Studio city home. The sale was a hit – approximately 300 people showed up to look for bargains and some even flew in from Boston for the sale. They must have been die hard fans.

News helicopters hovered over the event as if it were an Awards show or Movie premiere. Items sold during the sale included wine glasses, a dominatrix whip, sofas, roller skates and a rubber duck and memorabilia from Spellings’ time with T-V show 9-0-2-1-0.

Naturally the event ended up being videotaped for the VH1 reality show which is loosely based on Spellings’ life.

Tori’s yard sale

Tori Spelling is having a yard sale. The five month pregnant star and her husband, actor Dean McDermott, will be selling wares at their Studio City, Calif., home starting Friday at 9 a.m.

She claims that she’s having the sale because they are moving and states that her tastes have changed. She also went on to say that she’s a pack rat and clearing out the things that she doesn’t use or that she’s lost her taste for will help her make room for the new baby.

Spelling will be selling off everything from furniture to 90210 memorabilia, vintage and new designer clothing, artwork, chandeliers, antique chintzware collection, and signed scripts. The couple would like to find a Bed and Breakfast for the planned reality show on the Oxygen network. Filming started two weeks ago.
