David Blaine’s Next Televised Stunt

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Specials, ABC, News

He’s lived in a sphere, slept in a block of ice, fasted in a hoisted box and balanced on a tall platform. Now he’s prepared to turn his world upside-down. Literally.

Next month, street magician David Blaine will once again dazzle the residents of New York with another one of his famous endurance challenges. Armed with electro-magnetic boots, the daredevil will hang by his feet from a thin wire for approximately 60 hours. Although he’ll have the ability to walk around, he won’t be given a safety net should he fall. Did I mention that he’ll be doing this over Central Park’s Wollman Rink?

Criss Angel Performs Live on A&E

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Specials, Cable, Video

As David Blaine has proven over and over again, there’s nothing audiences love more than a live stunt.

Later this month, A&E’s Criss Angel will perform his own death-defying trick before a live television audience. In the one-hour event, Angel will be chained inside a 6-story office building that is set to implode. His goal is to reach the roof where an awaiting helicopter will take him to safety. Will the illusionist ever be able to walk around shirtless again? Oh the nail-biting drama!

That upcoming spectacle will be just a small part of Criss Angel: Mindfreak‘s fourth season. In total, the series will air 15 new episodes and 3 one-hour specials in this next round.

Mindfreak debuts July 23 @ 10pm. See a sneak preview of what’s to come after the jump.

Criss Angel’s New Trick: The Divorce Illusion

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Cable, Gossip, Rumors

Criss Angel managed to create a celebrity illusion without using his sleeve. According to famed gossip column Page Six, the magician spent a little private time with Pamela Anderson at LAX (a nightclub) earlier this month.

Anderson filed for divorce just a few days later, but one source says this is just par for the course in an already volatile relationship. Reps for Angel and Anderson did not comment on the story.
