And yet another reality show in the works.

But…..this is probably something we'd watch!

Logo just announced a new competition reality show titled RuPaul’s Drag Race.

The series will consist of six, one hour episodes and is expected to air early next year.

One lucky contestant will be able to compete for a spot on the series by signing up to the show's site, RuPaulsDragRace.com, with online votes determining the winner.

RuPaul will not only be the host, but will also be the contestants' mentor along with judge.

RuPaul = Tyra Banks???

Each contestant will be allowed to bring one stylist (or friend) with them to the competition to help them with their challenges.

No fair!

Contestants will compete for the title of top drag queen.

RuPaul jokes, “Tell Tyra that the Queen has returned, and while you’re at it have Heidi clear the runway. I’m going to pump some ‘realness’ into reality. To be a winner on this show the contestants need to be a fashion designer, an American Idol, and a top model all rolled up into one. And they definitely have to be smarter than a fifth grader.”

Nice job plugging all the major shows.

Will U watch the show?

You know there's going to be some major Divas fighting to be the center of attention.

Perez needs to make a cameo!

News keeps buzzing about the banning of David Archuleta's stage dad from hell, Jeff, from visiting American Idol backstage or during rehearsals. This is the first "ban" of its kind on the show.

We've heard David's side, but….what about the producer's side?

Now, executive producer Nigel Lythgoe is speaking out.

Nigel says, "'Banished' is a terrible word, isn't it? It sounds like we're in some far-off kingdom. He has been asked not to participate in the choice of music with David or be in the room when David is working out his routines that he wants to sing. He's fine to be in the studio, nothing wrong with that. We just want David to be able to be free like everybody else to get on and do what they want to do."

So what about the reported argument that occurred over Jeff making influencing David to use other lyrics during his performance of Stand By Me?

To that Nigel adds, "There was a lyric change that happened that was a total misunderstanding. Just another, um, step along the way of us saying, 'Okay, this is what we want to happen from now on.'"

As for the reports that they didn't want Jeff backstage to be "fair" with the other contestants that don't have any outside help with their song selections and arrangements.

To that Nigel adds, "No, no, no. It has nothing to do with fairness. We just want everyone to have an equal opportunity, and if that's fairness, fine. But this is more of just the fact of let's take some pressure away here, you know? It's like anybody appearing in front of their mom and dad. Let's just open up the pressure cooker, release the pressure, and you just get on and do what you gotta do."

So after all that, what it basically comes down to is, Jeff seems to be pressuring David and annoying the hell out of everyone else.

Keep him banned!

Stage dads are even worse than stage moms. Ask Macaulay Culkin.

Actually, speaking of Macaulay, wouldn't it be funny if he joined that VH1 has-been reality show?

We haven't seen him around in years!

It must suck to be rejected in public. It must REALLY such to get rejected in public over and over and over again!!! Just ask Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner's "main" girlfriend.

It's a well known fact that Holly's been begging for a wedding to Hef.

The two met back in 2001 and have been dating since. But there's no marriage in the near or distant future for them.

Holly, 28, was at the Playmate of the Year luncheon last week and said, "We are no closer to getting married than we were years ago. It’s like a car stalled at the side of the road.”

Awwww, it kind of breaks our little heart.

To that, Hef, at a healthy 82, said “I love Holly very much and I think we’re going to be together the rest of my life. But marriage isn’t part of my puzzle. It’s not a personal thing; I just haven’t had much luck with marriages.”

Maybe Hugh has a point???

Holly might want more than just a wedding ring, if you know what we mean!

Rumors are she's estimated to receive a cool $1 million when Hef passes away.

As for Hef, he has no desire to ever marry again or quit his job anytime soon.

He says, “I have no plans to retire. It’s the perfect combination of work and play that keeps you young. If I quit work, it would be the beginning of the end for me.”

We feel the same way, Heffie!

And what about the other girlfriends? Will they stick around?

As for Bridget Marquardt, she said “My goal is to be hosting my own show and be happily married with children, so I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately."

Well we know Hef ain't going to marry her or give her babies! So does that mean she plans on leaving him soon, or he plans on replacing her soon?

And Kendra Wilkinson?

She's made it no secret that she plans on working on her own clothing label, Kdub, to make it big. And she's also said her future involves marriage and children.

So where does that leave Heff and his three girlfriends?

We're sure they're easily replaceable anyway.

Talk about holding a grudge!

Lauren Conrad once again had Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag banned from The Hills live finale party last night, sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com.

"MTV caved in to Lauren's demands," a source close to the situation tells us. "They didn't let Spencer and Heidi in to the party because Lauren threatened to walk off. She didn't want any of the attention taken away from her."

P-E-T-T-Y.

Why can't L.C. just move on already??????

And another reality TV show to the lineup!

NBC has teamed up with American Idol host Ryan Seacrest for a new reality skein.

The show is currently titled Mommas's Boy, very apropos for a Seacrest prodcution.

The program will consist of eligible bachelors who will have their moms help pick them the right woman.

Haven't we already seen this before???

Seacrest would be the show's executive producer along with the producers of NBC's former reality show Average Joe.

According to NBC, "Producers are looking for moms and their sons who are willing to work together as a team to find the perfect mate. These mothers should have strong opinions about whom their sons should date and be willing to separate the good from the bad."

Does this mean Ryan will be executive producer and also a contestant????

And it's back to more reality TV shows!

VH1 is turning to Scott Baio to help produce programs for their "Celebreality" lineup.

The newest show is like The Surreal Life with former teen idols.

It will consist of a total of 8 male teenie boppers from the '80s and '90s.

You know what happens to teenie boppers?

They get fat, old and ugly!

Throughout the still-untitled show contestants will receive mentoring from a life coach. They will also have time to reflect on their former careers and outcomes. Basically, the highs and lows of being a teen icon.

At the end, each will have to decide whether they'll attempt to resurrect their careers and try for a comeback, or if they'll give up on Hollywood for good.

The show is set to air early next year.

Fun.

Wonder what losers will agree to be on the show???

As we mentioned yesterday, the original producers of Project Runway, who have been with the show since season one, will be leaving the show at the end of its Bravo run this upcoming fifth season.

The duo, Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz, are now speaking out about their decision to part with their baby.

Cutforth says, “We didn’t have an issue with Project Runway going to Lifetime per se, and we’d both be surprised if it didn’t work for that network.”

That's sort of putting it nicely.

Cutforth adds, “When we started doing Project Runway five years ago, we weren’t really a production company. We were two producers taking work on a for-hire basis. But Project Runway became a huge part of our company and we are very much known for it. We’ve been trying to grow our business and it doesn’t make much sense to keep on with it — as much as we love Project Runway.”

As for Lipsitz, she says, “Even though technically we didn’t create the show, we created the `creative’ of the show. We gave the show its style and emotional level. It’s not easy to walk away from it, by any means. All big decisions are complicated and you have to make sacrifices. Our emotional side is with Project Runway but our business side has to take over so we can build the company.”

Money always motivates people, though.

As for season five of the show which will debut this June, Cutforth says, “We’re excited about the cast and are always looking for a balance of talent and unforgettable characters,” says Cutforth. “I think one teaser I’ll give is, you’ll never look at tanning beds the same way.”

And will the duo watch the next season of Project Runway?

Cutforth states, "It would be weird, like going to an ex-girlfriend’s wedding. We might go but we won’t be dancing.”

Yea, and they'll be counting down the days until they get divorced!

How many of you noticed this bullshit last night????

The Hills needs to whip their editors into shape!

The show again failed to cover up another 'scripted' reality moment.

In Monday's episode, Spencer is seen at Heidi's doorstep with black shoes on his feet, but…..

When he enters her apartment, the shoes magically turn to white.

Magic!!!!!!

Does MTV just not care anymore about covering up the sham?????

The Project Runway dramz never ends!!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the production duo who've been attached to the show from the beginning, Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz , are opting NOT to follow Project Runway to Lifetime.

Ohhh shiz!!!!

The duo have just signed an exclusive overall first-look deal with NBC Universal, Bravo's parent company, to produce new broadcast, cable and digital properties. As part of the deal, the two will finish producing the current fifth cycle of Project Runway for Bravo, but will leave the show rather than produce a sixth cycle at Lifetime.

Sadness!

NBC insiders cite the long-standing relationship between the show's producers and NBC as key to the deal. The two also produce Bravo's Top Chef, Step It Up and Dance and Top Design AS WELL AS NBC's Last Comic Standing.

We wouldn't leave a cash cow either!

NBC Universal also announced Monday it has filed a request for a preliminary injunction to prevent the Weinstein Co. from marketing and promoting the show on Lifetime.

We're just hoping that all this crazy drama won't fuck the show up for you fans out there!
