Camila Alves New Face of Shear Genius
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Renewals,
Up until now, most people recognized Camila Alves as the mother of Levi McConaughey, Matthew McConaughey’s ridiculously cute child. But in just a few months, the model/handbag designer may get recognition for an entirely different reason.
Come February, Alves - who is currently pregnant with Matthew’s second child - will front Season 3 of Shear Genius. This appointment comes after two years with Jaclyn Smith in the hosting role.
The program, which is essentially a Top Chef for hair stylists, will return with almost an entire makeover. Although famed colorist Kim Vo will be around for another round, other additions will include new judge Jonathan Antin (from old reality series Blow Out), new expert Orland Pita and an international cast.
Shear Genius premieres February 3 on Bravo.

Bravo Steals Another Reality Idea
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Food & Home, Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, FOX, Hell’s Kitchen, So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef, Editorial,
As much as I love Bravo, am I the only one getting tired of their FOX reality rip-offs?
Today, the cable channel announced that it is producing a spinoff for one of Shear Genius‘s competitors from last season. Later this summer, the cameras will be following Tabatha Coffey as she “visits struggling salons in the Los Angeles and New York areas and literally takes over the establishments to whip them into shape.” While some may say a show about hair stylists has nothing to do with FOX, I say this production smells exactly like Kitchen Nightmares.
In fact, Tabatha’s Salon Takeover would be the second time Bravo has adopted a concept already seen on that other network. Hell’s Kitchen debuted in May 2005 while Top Chef coincidentally appeared in March 2006. And how about So You Think You Can Dance? That reality hit program played a part in Step It Up & Dance‘s debut this year.

- Verminators (Discovery, 10pm): “The source of a roach infestation at an apartment building shocks Mike.” There’s a reason why they say ignorance is bliss.
