A number of C-list celebs move into a Hollywood mansion, where their day-to-day lives are filmed as they fend for themselves (no cars, no cell phones) and learn to get along with each other---or not. The first two seasons ran on the WB, then the show moved to VH1, where the celebrity antics grew bolder and the show became a cable hit.
  • Mini-Me's Milllllion Dollar Sex Tape Lawsuit | Today's News: Our Take | 6/27/2008
    Earlier this week, TMZ went where no website should ever go when they posted clips from a leaked sex tape starring actor Verne Troyer. Troyer, best known for his role as Mini Me in Austin Powers (and getting piss drunk every other minute on The Surreal Life), is firing back at the site and filing a $20 million lawsuit claiming TMZ violated his rights by posting snippets of he and his lady friend doing…ahem…private stuff. Troyer claims the tape was stolen and wound up in the hands of Kevin Blatt (the brains behind One Night in Paris). Needless to say, Blatt is also named as a defendant in the suit. Besides looking to earn one 20 millllllion dollars, Troyer also wants an injunction to stop anyone else from viewing the video. Think $20 million is slightly outrageous in the land of law suits, or should TMZ be forced to pay the price of violating the actor's rights? And does anyone else find it strangely coincidental that his sex tape just happened to leak days after his new mo... read more

  • IDOLS NO LONGER IDLE | Today's News: Our Take | 3/30/2006
    Take heart, Lisa Tucker: Provided that no one's given you a nickname as embarrassing as Chicken Little, your elimination from American Idol last night is not necessarily a one-way ticket to the Surreal Life house on your way back to obscurity. Look at Latin heartthrob Mario Vazquez, last season's standout who quit the competition while still a judges' darling. This week he's releasing his first single, "Gallery," on J Records — and in two languages, no less. Not to be outdone, Idol 1's third-place finisher, rebellious rocker Nikki McKibbin, is also back with a vengeance. She's now accepting preorders through her website, nikkimckibbin.com, not only for her Chenoa Records debut single, the ya-gotta-hear-it-to-believe-it epic "The Lie," but also for a two-disc package that includes the video, a behind-the-scenes making-of DVD and her unplugged rendition of the Mr. Big hit "To Be with You." Both Vazquez's and McKibbin's full-length releases read more
  • Surreal Life Maybe I was overly... | Today's News: Our Take | 3/27/2006
    Surreal LifeMaybe I was overly optimistic about this edition of The Surreal Life when I wrote about it last week. The second episode didn't bring any of the drama I was anticipating or any of the fireworks Florence Henderson promised during our interview. True, Tawny Kitaen was a bit of a control freak (heavy on the freak) while producing that Smash Mouth video. But in the end she brought the project in on time and under budget. So what if she scared Florence away by wearing a habit? (Although it's really sad that Tawny thought playing a sexy nun would be "avant-garde." How lame.) Steve Harwell begging Tawny to writhe around on the car was predic read more
