Out in Reality TV: June 2008 Archives

How cool is this? Sabrina, Jill and Kelly back together again...

There will be another rare reunion of the original stars of "Charlie's Angels" when Farrah Fawcett and Kate Jackson appear on an episode of "shear Genius," the Bravo reality show hosted by fellow angel Jaclyn Smith.

These women have had famous heads of hair for more than 30 years so this is the perfect show for them to appear on and marks their first time together on television since a heart-warming reunion on the Emmys two years ago during a tribute to Aaron Spelling.
It was shortly after rare joint appearance (pictured, right) that that we learned Farrah had been diagnosed with cancer. She has been fighting hard and good to see she's well enough to appear on TV in something other than TMZ.com with cameras following her at the airport.

"You will be surprised when you see it," Jaclyn told Entertainment Tonight of the reunion. "We recreate our styles from the '70s with a modern touch. I thought it was challenging, because you think the simplicity of those styles. I think having some 'Angels' there was intimidating to some of the stylists. I think it was harder for them than just recreating [the hair styles] because we were there."

The second season of "Shear Genius" premieres June 25 at 10 p.m. on Bravo. Until then, here is the 2006 Emmy appearance of the ageless Jaclyn, Farrah and Kate:

I don't know what Brody Jenner did to become "famous" except that he's Bruce Jenner's son. And Bruce is barely famous these days, right? But I do know this: he's a real hottie so if MTV wants to give him a reality show, who am I to protest?

And boy, does it sound homo-erotic! Here is the description of the show, called "Bromance," in Variety: "...He auditions a group of dudes to fill his "bro" vacancy. The show will follow the usual dating series conventions, as seen in shows like MTV's Tila Tequila showcase "A Shot at Love" or ABC's "The Bachelor." But in this case, it will be a bunch of guys taking part in contests and angling for alone time with Jenner.

And it comes from Ryan Seacrest Productions. What a world it;s become: a metrosexual like Seacrest producing a show bromance. Why doesn;t everyone just come out already! (just kidding, sorta)

Seacrest told Variety that the idea came out of the whole "man date" phenom, and movies like "Superbad" and "Knocked Up," which feature straight male pals at their core: "I can speak from experience -- girls can come and go, but a 'bromance' can last forever."

Oh Ryan, that's so sweet!

Brody has appeared in many reality shows that I have not seen a single episode of: "The Hills," "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and Fox's "The Princes of Malibu."

The "Bromance" winner will be invited to join Jenner's entourage. Losing contestants will be kicked out of the show's bachelor pad home base each week in a "hot tub elimination ceremony" -- in which the guys will leave in just their swimsuit, dripping wet, luggage in tow.

Gay. Gay. Gay. I'm SO gonna watch!
