Kelly Rowland’s X Factor Warning for Britney
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, Gossip,
The Destiny's Child hitmaker spent one season on the panel of the UK version of the show, and although she loved the experience, she admitted it can be tough.
"I'm excited for them. I'll let them know it's a lot of work. It is a lot of work, but it was definitely a great process. It is a lot of responsibility, and when you screw up or if you screw up, then everybody blames you. Simon included," she told MTV News.
However, Kelly loved having the opportunity to take part in finding the next big thing and thinks Britney and Demi will do a great job on the US series: "You might be running into the next big thing. Or, like for Britney, the next big her, or the next big Demi Lovato. I think that's really exciting for them, and they'll be a part of that, and they'll never forget that."

Quote of the Day: Richard Chamberlain on Actors Coming Out of the Closet
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Gossip,
"It’s complicated. There’s still a tremendous amount of homophobia in our culture. It’s regrettable, it’s stupid, it’s heartless, and it’s immoral, but there it is. For an actor to be working is a kind of miracle, because most actors aren’t, so it’s just silly for a working actor to say, 'Oh, I don’t care if anybody knows I’m gay' — especially if you’re a leading man. Personally, I wouldn’t advise a gay leading man–type actor to come out. ... Despite all the wonderful advances that have been made, it’s still dangerous for an actor to talk about that in our extremely misguided culture. Look at what happened in California with Proposition 8. Please, don’t pretend that we’re suddenly all wonderfully, blissfully accepted."
-Openly gay actor Richard Chamberlain discouraging other gay actors to come out of the closet. (Chamberlain can currently be seen playing Ron Rifkin's love interest on Brothers & Sisters.)

Reality News: ‘Moment of Truth’, ‘Apprentice’, ‘Bachelorette’, ‘Supernanny’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Games, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, FOX, NBC, Apprentice, The - Donald, The Bachelor, Renewals,
Now that The Moment of Truth has successfully breezed through its two-week trial run, the show is being rewarded with a nice bonus. FOX - apparently believing the reality show’s gimmick won’t tire quickly - has added on another 13 episodes to its initial 12-pack order. (I’m guessing it was the program’s stellar debut that instilled the network with such confidence.)
Although a list of potential seatwarmers dwindled after the show’s first two airings (seems the attention seekers weren’t too thrilled about what they had seen), other ballsy contestants will be stepping up. Production on the additional segments will begin on Feb. 11th.
Just when you think the Trumpster is down and out, he just keeps coming back for more.
Even though his ‘recruitment’ show once faced cancellation, it’s had a reversal of fortune and now been granted an extension. Impressive numbers for Celebrity Apprentice has made NBC think twice about letting Donald Trump and the reality staple go too soon. (No rush decisions should ever be made during a writers’ strike.) Come this time next year, we will be seeing a second round of stars vie for credibility and airtime.
Seriously, a boardroom full of D-listers is really the only thing that keeps viewers attracted to the show these days. It’s not like anyone really believes The Apprentice winners do anything for Trump’s organization anymore.
