Lauren Conrad’s TV ‘Business’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Drama, Reality, MTV, Features,
Lauren Conrad saw her early reality television career as a "business opportunity."
The 26-year-old beauty rose to fame on Laguna Beach before going on to be a fashion designer, and she does not regret living her life in front of the cameras because it allowed her to have a "voice."
"There were definitely great perks. I got to travel a lot and I got to meet great people as well. But for me, the reality TV platform was always a business opportunity. Also, it gave me a voice, and I think it's really nice if you can turn that into something more."
Lauren admits the best thing about her career now is that she can do things she really enjoys, like writing her new book The Fame Game: "I'm really happy. It worked out well for me, because I am able to do the clothing line and write these books, things that I love, without the cameras around."
Simon Cowell Wants Stella McCartney for ‘X Factor’?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip, Rumors,
Simon Cowell reportedly wants Stella McCartney to dress The X Factor contestants.
The 52-year-old music mogul apparently hopes to follow in the footsteps of rival American Idol - which recently joined forces with Tommy Hilfiger - and get an established designer on the show to improve the style of competitors.
"Simon is a big fan of Stella's. He has been for ages. He's in negotiations with her at the moment to get her to design a few special pieces for some of the finalists. It will be great for the show if it comes off," a source said.
Meanwhile Simon is also said to be keen to get Stacy Keibler - the former wrestler and current girlfriend of George Clooney - to replace Steve Jones as host on the US version of the show.
"Stacy Keibler is in talks to join the show, but her lack of experience in the music business may make her more appropriate as a host. She looks fantastic and has bags of charisma," a source said.

Tommy Hilfiger Hired for ‘American Idol’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Announcements, News,
Tommy Hilfiger has been hired as an image advisor for American Idol. In the newly-created position, the 60-year-old fashion designer will be charged with developing the style of each contestant.
"I will look at where they were, where they are today and the possibility of where they could go, because I don't think their image will evolve without some trial and error. 'We need to take into consideration their ages, color preferences, sizes, what types of music they will be performing, what they wear on their feet and how they wear their hair. There is going to be a real package put together on each person."
Talking about his decision to take on the role, he told WWD, "I thought it would be exciting and challenging and different, a place where I could use all of my experience in fashion and music. If you look at what makes a star, it's not only musical talent, it's the complete package. And that includes image. If you look at great superstars from Michael Jackson to Madonna and Lady Gaga and Katy Perry today, they each have a unique style and that adds to their persona. It's the icing on the cake."

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Reality, NBC, Announcements, News,
Now that she's raking in millions from her clothing and accessories empire, Jessica Simpson is returning to reality television to display her fashion prowress.
While she has been off the air since last year's VH1 show The Price of Beauty, Simpson is now confirmed as a celebrity mentor on upcoming NBC show Fashion Star. The singer will team up with supermodel host Elle Macpherson to guide aspiring fashion designers in this Project Runway-esque series.
"With an almost billion-dollar lifestyle brand under her belt she is sure to be an excellent mentor to our up-and-coming designers," said Paul Telegdy, NBC and Universal Media Studios executive vice president.
Can the pop star-turned-entrepreneur help aspiring creatives without her own team of designers and business partners?

Vera Wang Might be ‘Dancing’ Next Season
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Apprentice, The - Donald, Dancing With The Stars, Gossip, Rumors,
E! Online recently reported that a source close to fashion designer Vera Wang divulged a possible entrance into CBS
ABC network’s hit show, Dancing With the Stars.
The 2005 CFDA winner is no newbie to reality television. She has appeared on both Project Runway and The Apprentice; however, she has never assumed the role of contestant on any show.
Widely-regarded for her wedding gowns, most are unfamiliar with Wang’s past as a figure skater, which obviously helps out in the competition (Kristi Yamaguchi, anyone?). She later went on to support her interest in the sport by designing costumes for Michelle Kwan and Nancy Kerrigan. Looks like she’ll be returning to her roots if she does get the opportunity to dance.
Both Wang’s and ABC reps declined to comment.

Lauren Conrad on Gossip Girl?
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Reality, MTV, The CW, The Hills, Gossip, Rumors,
Set to appear in an upcoming episode of ABC Family’s Greek, reality star Lauren Conrad has spilled the beans on a guilty pleasure of hers: Gossip Girl.
“I love Gossip Girl. I just love it. It’s so gossipy and superficial. It’s amazing,” Conrad said, obviously never one to try be above such silly things, considering her
life on MTV’s The Hills.
Then again, fans of the “fashion designer” shouldn’t get their hopes up—Conrad took it back: “I probably wouldn’t want to see myself on there because it would ruin it for me. I like watching other people get gossiped about. It makes me feel better.”
How profound you are, Lauren!

Gossip Girl Star Lands Modeling Deal
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Kids, Prime Time, The CW, Announcements, Gossip, News, Rumors,
For someone who plays a character who is completely immersed in the world of fashion, it was only a matter of time before Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen would bag a modeling deal for herself.
Of course, it was also no surprise that the 14 year old signed with one of the most lucrative agencies, IMG Models, who employs A-list celebrities including Drew Barrymore, Heidi Klum, Liv Tyler, and Hilary Duff.
No word yet as to the details of the contract, but Taylor did spill some of her own fashion secrets: “I love wearing jeans and T-shirts. That’s like a uniform for me. But at the same time, I love getting dressed up. I don’t follow trends with my everyday fashion. I wear what I feel like. Sometimes it doesn’t match and sometimes that’s okay.”

Why Christian Must Win Project Runway Season 4
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Editorial, Gossip,
With the season finale of Bravo’s trendiest reality show, Project Runway around the corner, fans across America are almost divided between the top two finalists, Christian Siriano and Jillian Lewis. I am here to tell you exactly why Christian must absolutely win this competition.
To begin, let’s talk about Rami Kashou. Throughout the show, Rami’s designs have been good. Sometimes they were too good, and no one knew just why until last week’s episode explained why: he’s already an established designer! Unlike the other three contestants who were living in poor New York studios, Rami had his own studio. Not only that, but his collections are in fifteen boutiques in both L.A. and New York. To top it all off, he has clothed Jessica Alba (his piece is actually in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Dita Von Teese, Paula Abdul, and Paris Hilton, to name a few. Why the hell is this guy on the show in the first place?!

‘Project Runway’ Premiere Date
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo,
After months of waiting, Bravo has officially announced the premiere date for Project Runway. The 4th season will begin November 14th.
Why they strangely chose a start date so close to the holidays is unfortunately not mentioned on their website. Nevertheless, I’m just grateful it’s finally returning. (Can you believe it’s been over a year since the last season premiered?)
And don’t panic. Despite rumors he might not return, Tim Gunn will be around to critique the new designers (along with Heidi Klum, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia).
