Courtney Stodden Doug Hutchison Reality Shows

TEEN BRIDE COURTNEY STODDEN WON’T STOP UNTIL SHE GETS WHAT SHE WANTS

It’s inevitable. Teenage bride Courtney Stodden, 17, and her actor husband Doug Hutchison, 51, will eventually have their own reality show. And Courtney won’t stop parading around in public inappropriately attired until it happens! Offers have already come in, including VH-1’s offer to appear on Relationship Rehab for over $150,000, but the odd pair haven’t found any of the ideas to be “appropriate.” After all, their relationship is fine. (Above, the couple again livened up the shopping experience at The Grove mall.)

Andy Cohen Bravo Reality Shows Watch What Happens: Live

ANDY COHEN IS THE BIGGEST STAR AT BRAVO

The Real Housewives come and go, but Bravo’s Andy Cohen may leave them all in the dust! Andy’s “Watch What Happens: Live” is such a hit that it’s being extended from two to five nights a week at 11. He’s come a LONG way since he was a backup dancer for The B-52’s! His knack for developing shows with pop culture appeal for Bravo made him VP of Programming. He started enthusiastically gossiping about offscreen antics with the Real Housewives among others, and his blog turned into his series. Imagine an executive becoming the biggest star at a network – it reminds one of Oprah!

Christina Fulton Eyes of Noctum Nicolas Cage Reality Shows Weston Cage

HOW BRILLIANT IS VH1 TO GIVE WESTON CAGE A REALITY SHOW?

Photo Credit: Pacific Coast News

HERE’S a reality show we won’t miss. Nicolas Cage’s ex Christina Fulton and their son Weston Cage have agreed to film a series for VH1, Weston has had nothing but problems for the past year – he was involved in a street fight that went viral, he was arrested for domestic violence twice, and he and his wife both landed in rehab. He’s in a black metal band called “Eyes of Noctum.” Christina, who is NOT fond of Weston’s father Nicolas Cage, compared their show to “a modern day Addams family.” We wonder if Weston, 20, will be moving back in with his mother – and what about his wife? Weston wants to convince us that he’s NOT crazy and having a reality show might prove it – one way or the other. We bet Nicolas will keep his distance from all this.

Bikini Celebrity Rehab Janice Dickinson Reality Shows

JANICE DICKINSON IS HOLDING ONTO THAT MODEL’S BODY

Photo Credit: Buzz Foto

For a model who’s been around the block a few times, Janice Dickinson, 56, still has a rockin’ bod. Nowadays she makes most of her money doing reality shows and she’s an ideal participant because she always ends up making scenes and fighting with someone. When she’s not on TV here (she was on Celebrity Rehab last season) , she’s in Europe doing the Top Model of Finland show or whatever…

Bobbi Kristina Brown Montana Fishburne Reality Shows Rehab Whitney Houston

WHITNEY HOUSTON’S BOBBI KRISTINA IS RUNNING WILD IN HOLLYWOOD

It looks like Whitney Houston has pretty much lost control of her 18 year old daughter Bobbi Kristina, according to The Enquirer. After photos of Krissi snorting cocaine surfaced, Whitney put her in rehab, but pulled her out when she realized her daughter might reveal unpleasant details about her mother’s drug use in group counseling sessions. Whitney shipped Krissi off to LA to film a reality show about her efforts to break into the music business. But Krissi started palling around with Montana Fishburne, of all people, and hanging around clubs with druggies and pornstars. If Whitney’s nightmares come true, next thing you know Krissi will be in a porn video!

Engaged Jesse James Kat Von D Reality Shows Sandra Bullock

KAT VON D AND JESSE JAMES: SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO SHAME

Engaged couple Kat Von D and Jesse James are both addicted to fame and apparently they want to share their love affair with the whole world. They’ve been pitching a newlywed style show around Hollywood and have already been filming scenes together. It’s surprising, since Jesse’s split with Sandra Bullock earned him a horrible reputation, you’d think he’d want to hide under a rock. But Jesse hopes a reality show will reveal his good side. If there is one.

An American Family Cinema Verite Diane Lane HBO Lance Loud Pat Loud Reality Shows

THE LOUD FAMILY REVISITED THANKS TO HBO

All the “Real Housewives” owe a debt of gratitude to the Loud family who paved the way for reality TV back in the 1970’s. In those days PBS called “An >American Family” a documentary series in 12 parts. The Louds of Santa Barbara were the first American family to be the subject of a reality show. It was unscripted and during the run of the series, Pat and Bill Loud separated and divorced, and their openly gay son Lance not only took his mother to a drag show in the second episode, but he move to the Chelsea Hotel in New York and ran with the Warhol crowd. It was riveting television and worth revisiting. HBO’s “Cinema Verite” tells the story of the filming of the documentary and Diane Lane plays mother Pat in awful 70’s glasses, Tim Robbins plays dad Bill, and Thomas Dekker plays young Lance. (We were lucky to know and adore Lance for years.)

Celebrity Apprentice Donald Trump Implants Omarosa Reality Shows Religion The Apprentice

“MOST HATED REALITY STAR” OMAROSA IS NOW A MINISTER

We didn’t take Omarosa seriously when the reality star announced two years ago that she was enrolling in seminary school and becoming a minister. Her first reality TV appearance was on Donald Trump’s ”The Apprentice” and she gained so much notoriety that a few years later she appeared on “Celebrity Apprentice.” At that time she was voted “most hated reality star,” and as a result, she went on to appear on over 20 reality shows! In 2009 the 37 year old did indeed enroll in seminary school and earned her preacher’s license. She is now an assistant pastor at the Weller Street Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles. (As far as we know, she is still dating actor Michael Clarke Duncan.) Surely, she has to be one of the few pastors with implants.

Reality Shows Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood Tori Spelling

TORI SPELLING’S NEW FAMILY MEMBER

Coming up with original ideas and scripts and situations for reality shows gets harder all the time. Hence we find Tori Spelling walking her Pygmy goat on a harness. Judging by the fact that she’s in full makeup, we’re guessing that she’s being followed by cameras for her show “Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood.” A cute puppy or baby is no longer enough…..

Celebrity Apprentice Celebrity Rehab Gary Busey Girlfriend Reality Shows

GARY BUSEY: REALITY SHOWS PAY THE RENT

Gary Busey seems to be making a decent living thanks to reality shows. He made around $100,000 as the loose cannon on Dr Drew’s Celebrity Rehab and now he’s set to appear on Celebrity Apprentice with Donald Trump. The other day he was pulled over by police for suspected drunk driving but he passed sobriety tests and was released. Here he’s relaxing in the park (in his pajama bottoms?) with his girlfriend Steffanie Sampson and their one year old baby Luke.
