No Reality TV for Michael Jackson’s Children

Michael Jackson's Kids

Despite a report claiming Michael Jackson’s three children would soon become reality stars, the trio’s legal guardian says that simply isn’t so.

In the upcoming A&E series, The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty, the cameras will follow the surviving Jackson 5 members and will also include 19 other relatives with the same last name. Even though Janet and her mother are both expected to be involved, Katherine tells TMZ that the formerly masked Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket will not.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Cable, News

Steven SeagalCould this be the year for action hero comebacks?

Back in January, Sylvester Stallone reintroduced audiences to his iconic John Rambo character. Earlier this month, Jean-Claude Van Damme’s JCVD opened stateside. Now Steven Seagal is looking to get his face back out in the mainstream.

Although he’s currently known for his straight-to-video releases, the Under Seige star has been taking down bad guys in his real life for some time now. For approximately 20 years, the martial artist has been a fully-commissioned deputy with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office in Louisiana. In addition to assisting in the Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts, the expert marksman has worked with the local SWAT team and helped fellow officers with hand-to-hand combat techniques.

Corey Haim and Corey Feldman

After two short seasons, Sunday night’s finale seemed to toll a death knell for the A&E series . Is it all really over? I see much more reality TV in store for this pair.

Season two of the show displayed a marked difference from the more lighthearted fun of the first, which often made ’s antics seem childish but never truly harmful. The season that was marked with drama and squabbling ended in much the same way, though on a somewhat somber note. This ambiguous ending leaves much more to be said on the future of the two…assuming there is one.

An End for The Two Coreys

Corey Haim and Corey Feldman

Sooner or later, all train wrecks must come to an end.

According to the the co-producer of The Two Coreys, the show’s second season will be the last for the A&E program. Haim’s documented relapse - coupled with the duo’s ongoing issues - make it difficult for the series to proceed.

It’s also hard to produce a show when the stars aren’t even speaking to each other. In the recent issue of People, we learn that the Lost Boys actors won’t even appear in the same photo together anymore.
