Also added to the star-studded countdown: rockers Tommy Lee and Dave Navarro will report from Las Vegas, along with the band OK Go (minus the treadmills, I will assume).

Question: What do you think of MyNetwork's format of airing two telenovelas, with new episodes every night (Fashion House and Desire for the first 13 weeks)? I would never watch these two particular serials because they look dreadful, but I'm wondering if the format could be successful if done well. Traditional wisdom is that people aren't devoted enough to keep up with serialized dramas, an argument I have never believed — after all, who's watching all those soap operas? But I think Americans tend to be out of the house in the evenings more perhaps than people in nations where telenovelas are wildly popular. Still, in the age of TiVo and the Internet, I wonder if it could catch on. I would welcome a show that had a new episode every night if it was really good. I hate having to wait a week between installments sometimes. What do you think are the chances that we would see a quality telenovela-like serial on any of the networks or cable channels in the future?
Answer: You're right that

Although the network is releasing few details about the follow-up's premise — including whether or not it will even have a tie-in to a real band — it has been confirmed that Dave Navarro and Brooke Burke will return as hosts.

A while back, Tyra Banks said she'd never do an all-guy version of America's Next Top Model, citing a lack of public interest in male mannequins. Ever since then, we've wondered when someone else would fill this obvious (and, frankly, egregious) void in the reality-TV landscape. Well, wonder no more, beefcake fans. Tonight at 10 pm/ET, NBC gives you Manhunt: The Search for America's Most Gorgeous Male Model, hosted by Baywatch bombshell-turned-MTV-staple Carmen Electra herself. Now doesn't that sound classy?
Openly gay exec producer Stuart Krasnow thinks Miss Tyra's trippin' when she says nobody cares about the dudes. "That's a really unfair statement," he gripes. "I think there's a tremendous female following for handsome men." And Electra chimes in: "All my friends are excited about it — gay or straight!"
That includes Carm herself, whose official role differs from Tyra's in that she's only hosting. "Thank g
