CBS Wants Some More Of Melissa McCarthy!

Filed under: TV News > Emmys > Melissa McCarthy

Melissa McCarthy continues to be on a hot streak!

Fresh off of last year's Emmy and buzz surrounding her amazing performance in Bridesmaids, Melissa has sold a script to CBS for a new sitcom.

This becomes the second script she's sold after the first was sold in September 2011.

The untltled spec is about a man who lives at home with his parents…and he's 37. It was co-written by Larry Dorf and Mel's husband and fellow Bridesmaids' alum Ben Falcone.

The Emmy winner will take a non-writing executive producer role for the show.

We're so proud of her success! Melissa is unstoppable!

Confirmed: X Factor Looking For Two Women To Fill Spots!

This is PERFECT!

This fits perfectly with our hopes and dreams that Mizz Britney Spears will take one of those judges seats... and that the other might be filled with Fergie or Janet Jackson!

As we reported earlier, Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid are on the hunt for two hosts to fill the void left now by former host Steve Jones. There are lots of rumors floating around, but here is something that L.A. can confirm: two girls are a MUST for the job! As Reid told sources:

“We will likely have two girls. That, you can probably count on.”

But don't get too excited. Things mind change beyond next season, as they're looking for a co-ed team to tackle hosting duties later on!!

Here's what Simon said:

“I always wanted a boy and a girl to host the show and I think that’s definitely going to happen now. I think it’s going to make it more interesting.”

All of this news has us SUPER excited for next season!

With Brit's experience in the industry, and say Janet Jackson's wisdom -- we can't think of a better fit.

And at this point we'd be totally let down if it didn't happen! Ha!

The problem is... we want to know now!!
