I haven't updated in over a month!  Well, on this blog at least...I watched all kinds of amazing TV tonight.  Well, two shows: Dancing With The Stars and The Bachelorette.  Both were good, and I am super excited to see who wins this season of DWTS.The main point of this entry is to get the 40-50 average visitors I have a day to read my new (and SUPER fierce) blog, The Fierce Life.It's got gossip,

The new season of Dancing With The Stars is fierce!  I'm watching it right now; frontrunners Melissa from The Bachelor and Tony Dovolani are awesome...  I mean, the thing is, she's a trained ballet dancer and was a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader, so she definitely has an unfair advantage. But she's just so good!  I also like when the judges recognize good choreography--tonight Kari Ann told Tony it

Who's the next Laguna Beach or The Hills "star" to get her own spin-off?  Audrina Patridge! Duh. I knew it was only a matter of time.  Mark Burnett (Survivor, Big Brother, etc) will be the producer, and no network has announced yet that it will pick up Audrina's show.  This officially makes another spin-off of a spin-off: Laguna Beach--->The Hills--->Audrina's show...  What could be next?Remember

Does anyone (other than my roommate) watch Rock Of Love Bus?  It's pretty ridiculous, to be perfectly honest, but there's some really good material, such as these messes being drunk and trying to figure out how to cook a Lean Cuisine.  It's brilliant.I haven't been watching that much American Idol this season, but I'm currently tuned in.  They're in the process of picking the top 36 (I think),

You may have noticed a recent decline in entries here at Fierce Reality...  It's sad, I suppose, but I'm really focusing my efforts on The Fierce Life lately.  If you don't already, please read it!Anyhow...  Survivor is about to break a record and become the longest-running reality-competition show on TV.  They just signed on for the 19th and 20th seasons, complete with Jeff Probst as host!

Rumors have been circulating for a while now (here and elsewhere) about the cast of the next season of Dancing With The Stars.  Well, it's officially been announced!  Check it out here.Bridget from The Girls Next Door has moved out and has a new boyfriend.  He's hot.  Well, hotter than the new boyfriends of the other girls...

More Dancing With The Stars casting news...  This time, it's Jewel.  Yeah, you know, the foly singer who tried to go pop around the millennium after she got her teeth fixed.  Interesting.I thought we were finally done with New York.  Nope.  She's joining a national tour of The Vagina Monologues to try her hand at the fine art of acting.  When asked about her upcoming role, New York said, "It's a

Katharine McPhee, one of my top 10 favorite Idol contestants ever, was dropped by her record label last year...  Sad.  However, she's getting another chance!  Hopefully this time the album will sell.  Her debut album was really good, it just didn't ever put out any hits.VH1 will be putting out a new reality show this summer staring NFL star Terrell Owens.  Hmm...

Britney's ex Kevin Federline is apparently "in talks" with producers from Dancing With The Stars to appear on the next season.  Is this a joke?  I mean, they've definitely blurred the criteria for "stars" in the past, but this is ridiculous.

Apparently Cindy McCain had aspirations of making it big on reality TV.  She was in talks with producers to be on Dancing With The Stars, but it looks like John has said "no ma'am."  That would have been a pretty big deal I think...The last episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County was so good I watched it twice in one night: once at home with Lora and one at the gym on the eliptical.  Why

American Idol is back for its 8th season, and it started out with a bang!  The new judge Kara DioGuardi, is totally fierce; at one point during an audition she tried to teach some slutty girl wearing a bikini how to really sing.  Ryan is looking great (as usual), and the talent is all over the place (as usual).The final audition last night was this blind guy who has a beautiful voice and an even

Ann Coulter was on The View today promoting her new book about how liberals are destroying America.  You know, as crazy as Elizabeth Hasslebeck is on that show, it doesn't come close to Ann Coulter's rantings and ravings.  She's insane.  How can she believe what she writes?  I don't know if I can think of anyone who is more criticized than her.Final Thought: Are you reading The Fierce Life?  If

It took longer than I expected, but Bridget has finally decided to move out of the Playboy Mansion, just like her Girls co-stars Holly and Kendra did in October.  Sad times for Hef, sad times for all of us.  Bridget says that her moving out has nothing to do with the other girls leaving, but I can imagine that living in that house just wouldn't be the same without Holly and Kendra.Kim Kardashian

OK, I know he's kind of a celebrity, but why is Clay Aiken so ugly?  Adding insult to injury is that his friends are really hot!  I don't get it.  You'd think that he'd have some kind of stylist (read: new gay friend) who could help him out a bit.  Back on Idol he was a little funny looking, but not ugly.Have you checked out my new blog yet?  Please do!Final Thought: Happy Birthday, New York!

Other than the book, Holly is still dating Criss Angel, Kendra is still dating that fooball player, and Bridget is still working on her own show.It looks like viewership for The Hills is way down!  Maybe the next

So there's this show called X Factor in the UK, right?  It's their version of American Idol. Anyhow, some girl named Alexandra Burke won last night, and she got to perform "Listen" from Dreamgirls with Beyonce.  Fierce, right?  I can't imagine someone like Beyonce being on Idol; X Factor just knows how to bring in the stars!  Anyhow, it's a great performance.  Alexandra is good--a little flat on

Here's a clip of David Archuleta's recent rendition of "A Thousand Miles" at a tree lighting ceremony in Hollywood. A few of my thoughts:1. His voice sounds great and the song is a good choice for him.2. He needs to spend some more time at the piano because he makes a few fumbles. It's a great effect, though, him playing and singing.3. Even better than the video itself is the commentary from

Season seven of Dancing with the Stars has come to an end, and Brooke Burke and her partner Derek Hough were given the mirror ball trophy and crowned the winners.  Congrats!  I mean, they were probably the best couple in terms of talent, showmanship, and audience appreciation, so it's really no surprise.  This is a little scary.  Carson Daly is going to be a father!  Is it ironic that he waited '

I could write for days about her performance (which I missed live but just caught on YouTube), but to put it bluntly, Christina Aguilera is amazing at the American Music Awards tonight. Who else could perform a seven-minute-long medley of some of her greatest hits, singing and dancing like she didn't just have a baby a year ago? In general, the AMA's were OK.

I thought I was the only one!  The day that David Cook beat my boyfriend (aka David Archuleta) on American Idol is one that will live in infamy... These 11-year old girls have the same reaction that I did.And who can blame them/me?  I mean, he doesn't even shave!!!  Ha.  This is truly a gem.

McKey (the brown-haired one) won America's Next Top Model the other night.  Out of the three finalists, she was my favorite.  She just has that high-fashion/runway look that they other two girls just didn't quite have.  After 11 seasons (or cycles, as Tyra prefers them to be called), I think the show is starting to get a little flat...  I mean, there are only so many ridiculous photo shoots they

I don't really see the connection between our struggling economy and the fact that reality TV viewership has been down lately, but some people a lot smarter than I do.This is bad.  Very bad.

Awwww she's all grown up!  Diana DeGarmo used to be the cute, blonde-haired bombshell with the unsuspecting (white girl) voice on season three of American Idol.  Now, she's at the CMA's with a darker 'do and still looking fierce.Remember this performance?  It's amazing.  Talk about vowel modifications (teeee----eeeahhhhhhh!)...  She can belt.  I love it.

I can't believe it...  FOX has cancelled my favorite sketch show Mad TV after 14 successful seasons...  Devastating news, to be sure.  The show has produced so many memorable characters--Lorraine, Stuart, Miss Swan, Dot, and countless others, many of whom have been portrayed by some fabulous actors and comedians, including fellow Singing Hoosier alum Nicole Parker.

Truly a classic moment from the vaults of reality TV. I may have posted this video before, but trust me, it's worth a second look.

Well, the list of injuries on Dancing With The Stars continues to grow...  This time it's Kym Johnson; apparently she fell or something and has injured her shoulder.  Luckily it won't take her out of the competition and she will dance tonight with Warren Sapp.  Who is next?The new season of Hell's Kitchen will be premiering on January 29  on FOX.  Will you be watching?  I might...  I haven't

Antonio Sabato, Jr. is gonna be the next celeb to get his own reality show...  He's searching for the love of his life, "the kind of love you see in the movies."  If you think you've got what it takes (and you're a woman, apparently), check out this link.  I wish I could apply; he's fierce.Last season's American Idol champ David Cook is finally putting out his album sometime next week.  In an

It looks like American Idol champ Carrie Underwood has found herself a new man--former Bachelor Travis Stork!  They were recently seen having dinner together in Philly; also, Travis has been spotted backstage at a few of Carrie's concerts.  They make a great looking couple!What were you for Halloween?  Some of Reality TV's biggest stars hit some parties with some fierce costumes...*Here's Heidi

In case you missed it, check out this clip from Saturday Night Live last night.  It's pretty entertaining.  My favorite parts are Cindy's cameo and McCain's shout-out to Heidi.  Loves it.As a reminder, go out and VOTE on Tuesday!  Let's make history happen.

OK, so I don't really remember hearing much about this new show on The CW called Stylista. But I did some research.  The premise is this: eleven hopefuls are given jobs as interns for Elle magazine; each week, they compete in various tasks until one is left.  The winner gets a job with Elle, a fierce apartment in Manhattan, and a shopping spree at H&M.  Interesting...  Anyways, this clip is great

This is a new "tag" I'm trying out...  It's called "Midnight Gems" and it's clips/news stories/thoughts/etc. that come to me late at night, just before I tuck myself into bed.This clip is hilarious.  It's from Mad TV and it's a spoof of So You Think You Can Dance?  The clip alone is pretty good, but once Crista Flanagan (as judge Mary Murphy) starts laughing, I couldn't contain myself.  Pretty

OK, watch this clip and then think about the following questions...1. Why is Anderson giggling the entire time?2. How come he looks like he's so in shape (read: fierce arms) but has zero flexibility?3. Why won't he just DO what she's SAYING?  I don't get it...4. Does this workout really work?5.

Well, something new actually happened on reality TV last night.  That's right, Ladies and Gentleman, there was a group HIP HOP routine on Dancing With The Stars.Honestly, what more needs to be said? Watch it in all its glory HERE.

Danity Kane is really falling apart.  It's being reported that Shannon has decided to leave the group amidst all the drama, cat-fighting, and name-calling.  This means that only two girls remain--Dawn and Aundrea.  Sad times for sure; the end of an era, even.  I wonder what Diddy will do with the name and image of Danity Kane...  I mean, it's obvious that this group is over, unless they try to

I saw the "breaking news" of this story a few days ago, but the details are so tragic...  And, it hits close to home for me...Jennifer Hudson's mother and two other family members were shot and killed in their Southside Chicago home on Friday.  To make matters even worse, a young boy, Jennifer's nephew, has been missing since the family members were found dead.  There's currently an Amber Alert

So, American Idol loser and future Celebrity Rehab superstar Nikki McKibbin blames her drug/alcohol problems and bouts with depression on Simon Cowell.  She says that during her time in Idol, the comments from Simon made her sneak a bottle of vodka into the house and, if she wasn't too tired, "have one or two drinks."  My first question is this: one or two drinks means you're an alcoholic?  I'm

It's definitely not a spinoff...  J. Alexander and Jay Manuel of America's Next Top Model are getting their own show on The CW, in which five women from one town all get makeovers and do some sort of competition until a winner is chosen...  Interesting.  It's called Operation Fabulous.  Good one.How many more spin-offs can they come up with?  This time it's Daisy from Rock Of Love's turn to try

The rumors have been circulating for a while.  Though no official announcement has been made (yet), it looks like Danity Kane will be saying auf Wiedersehen to Aubrey!  Diddy made this known during last night's show, saying that Aubrey is no longer a part of the group.  !!!  I am a little shocked, to be honest; I mean, Aubrey was the stand-out from day one, and her vocals are among the strongest

...must be difficult!  And by "difficult" I mean "pretty not bad."Anyways, I watched The Hills last night.  Even though I really don't like the show, it's only a half hour long, and watching those crazy girls' "real lives" helps to make me feel like mine is somewhat normal.  I think the only one I really have any empathy for is Lauren; I mean, she is constantly drawing the short straw in life,

Well, it's officially Fall here in Chicago, but apparently it's still pretty warm out in LA, where Dancing With The Stars is filmed.  Check out Derek Hough after a long (and intense?) rehearsal... Ugh, he's cute.This really comes as no surprise because all parties involved are uneducated idiots: Heidi Montag endorses Sarah Palin (and therefore John McCain).  Duh.According to one of her cast-mates

This is sad.  Misty May-Treanor and her partner, the uber-hot Maksim Chmerkovsky, have had to drop out of Dancing With The Stars!  Misty apparently broke her ankle during a rehearsal for the upcoming week's show; I wonder how this will affect the voting--will they eliminate someone? Or maybe they'll bring back Kim Kardashian who was eliminated last week; it's not like she has anything better to

OK, so, The View.  It's a whatever show, to be completely honest.  But every now and then, the bitches make a point.  Today's point is this: Elizabeth Hasselbeck is an idiot and Sarah Palin is not fit to be the President of the United States.  Watch and learn.I mean, I am not politically-savvy enough to really commentate on the inadequacies of Sarah Palin, but my lady friends on The View really

I haven't gotten to watch too much Dancing With The Stars so far this season, but thank God for YouTube!  Today I checked out a few of the live performances that have happened so far and want to share them...First of all, Jesse McCartney performed his hit "Leavin'" and, to be honest, I am quite impressed. He sounds good and, as usual, looks hot.  This one's a gem--it's Jessica "I'm A Country

In case you missed it...  Because I know I did!  Tina Fey reprised her role as Governor Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live last night.  Amy Poehler was also in the sketch, and this time, I think she nailed it (as Katie Couric).  Check it out.In other news, Oxygen network has taken over America's Next Top Model!  Not only do they have the exclusive rights to the past seasons, they will be airing

Well, after years and years of denying it, saying it was only between him and God, Clay Aiken has come clean--and come out of the closet!  Congrats, Clay!  I hope all of the 55-year old Claymates aren't too upset...  The news broke after his baby mama gave birth to a healthy child; Clay decided it was time to stop living a lie.  I think he's gonna be on the cover of next week's People magazine.

OK, so, Project Runway.  This is the first episode I've watched all the way through this season, and I have to say that it's getting a little boring.  Nothing is really shocking anymore; I mean, no one can beat Christian Siriano saying "fierce" at least twice in every sentence, and nothing touches "Project Runway: The Musical" from season two.  That said, it was a decent episode.  The challenge

Before my Project Runway recap, I thought I'd share with you some of the day's top reality TV stories.First of all, it sounds like American Idol is going to be un-fierce this season.  Even Paula says there haven't been any good auditions!  And, since there are four judges now, Simon will have the deciding vote in the event of a tie, giving him even more power.I watched an episode of The Cho Show

I caught an episode of Making The Band 4 today which followed the rehearsals and first performances of Donnie, Day 26, and (of course) Danity Kane.  Here are my thoughts...First of all, who is this Donnie guy?  I mean, I know who he is; he auditioned for the band and Diddy decided he would make it better as a solo artist...  Really, Diddy?  I mean, he has a nice voice and all, but it just doesn't

The VMA's were last night on MTV.  It was an interesting show, to say the least...  To be perfectly honest, I was a little disappointed.  Britney opened the show and looked SUPER hot, but alas, there was no comeback performace from her.  Hopefully soon...  What else?  Christina performed (and was introduced by the High School Musical cast) and she was OK.  I mean, Christina Aguilera ALWAYS sings

Guess who's hosting the CMA's this year?  Country "singers" Julianne Hough, Kellie Pickler, and Taylor Swift.  Interesting choices, eh?  Hmmmm...  I think Julianne Hough has taken this reality TV thing too far; I mean, stick to one genre, ok?  Anyhow, I won't be watching, but it's newsworthy I suppose.Work, Tyra!  Everyone's favorite hot tranny mess is the top earning female in primetime TV. Wow.

Ready for some gossip?  I hope so, because there's lots to talk about.It's true.  American Idol has officially added another judge for season 8.  Maybe this is what the show needs to bring back its top-notch ratings which seemed to slip last year...  Maybe.  So who is Kara DioGuardi, anyways?  Well, I'm glad you asked.  I researched her at my favorite reliable source (Wikipedia, duh.) and found

Lots going on in the world of reality TV, and your favorite guide (that's me) is back and better than ever!  Have you watched Date My Ex?  It stars Jo and Slade from Real Housewives of Orange County and, as your probably guessed, they are seeking out mates for one another.  How original, right? Anyhow, I watched a couple of episodes today and it's pretty bad.  I used to think Slade was super hot;

Summer is winding down which means that Fierce Reality is heating up!  Here are a few stories to tie you over before I move back to Chicago (and cable television).Looks like The Girls Next Door might be losing a roommate--Kendra!  I love her, but you know what, she doesn't seem to fit in with the other girls as well...  I'm not sure what it is about her. Anyhow, there are rumors circulating that

So, my sister, the twice-Emmy nominated film and television editor, has in recent months been away from the AVID machines to care for her beautiful daughter, my niece.  Anyhow, she's back to work and has a show that actually looks pretty interesting.  It's on HGTV and it's called Battle of the Design Star Judges.  I know what you're thinking--it doesn't sound that fierce.  Well, throw in some

**A Note from MLC**So I've taken a job in Northern Michigan for the summer and right now I have neither cable nor internet at my house.  Needless to say, that makes blogging about reality TV a little difficult. NEVER FEAR!  I'll still try to provide some updates (and my usual witty banter) a few times a week, at least until I get some technological updates at my house.  :)  Keep reading.OK, on to

So, Tila Tequila thinks that she is responsible for the legalization of gay marriage in California. Hahaha.  I mean, yeah, her show crossed a few boundaries I guess, but let's be honest: who in the California legislature watched her show?  This sounds interesting...  Bravo is going to have a spinoff of Top Chef for kids!  I wonder what kinds of challenges they will have.  Who can make the best PB

So You Think You Can Dance? has gotten into the good part of the season--the top 20 are now competing in couples and two people will be eliminated each week.  I caught a few of the performances tonight and I have to say that the talent this season is good but it doesn't yet look like there are more than a couple of standout stars.  Hmm...  I'm not ready to pick favorites yet or anything like that

TLC is bringing in a new show that's part-reality and part-game show.  And it's 100% sexy because the host is Cameron Mathison.  I love him.  Anyhow, the show is called Your Place Or Mine? and it pits families against one another in (I think) decorating challenges; the family who wins not only gets a redecorated house but a new car as well.  Interesting.The girls from The Hills are fighting like

She was always my favorite on The Hills, and now MTV is rewarding Whitney Port with her own "reality" show!  The cameras will follow her as she jet-sets across the country from LA to NYC working for her fashion PR firm.  I'm mostly jealous that she gets to use the word "jet-set" to describe herself.Who else is heading to reality TV?  That's right, Tara Reid.  Hahaha.  Don't worry, she's not going

My favorite American Idol trainwreck, Jessica Sierra, has been banned from being within 100 feet of a camera.  Random, right?  Who knew that you could have restraining orders against a camera???  She apparently wanted to do another stint on Celebrity Rehab, but a court has struck that dream down.  Sorry 'bout it, girl.Heidi Montag plans on winning an Oscar.  Seriously.Steve-O from Jackass has

Dina and Ali Lohan were on The View recently and they are just so insane!  If I hear the phrases "set the record straight" or "a normal family" from them one more time, I might explode.  Ali Lohan is seriously NOT 14 years old...  The record is straight: they're not a normal family.  But they're amazing.  Living Lohan premiered earlier tonight and I am curious to read some reviews about it...

Does news count as reality TV?  You betcha it does, especially when it's this fierce!  The president pro-tem  of the Detroit City Council recently called her superior a "Shrek" during a Councilmeeting, so a news agency in Detroit set up a panel of 8th-graders to talk to the woman about how she handled the situation.  One of the girls, Kierra Bell (who is in 8th grade!!!) totally took her to TOWN.

VH1 has released a five-minute preview for the upcoming show I Love Money. It looks like possibly the trashiest, most insane, stupidest, most amazing reality show yet. What's the premise? It's sort of like a Real World/Road Rules Challenge but it stars rejects from Rock Of Love, Flavor Of Love, and I Love New York.

The performance show on Tuesday wasn't too exciting, to be honest. The boxing theme ("The Battle of the Davids") did absolutely nothing for me; it was stupid and overplayed. I hated it. Each guy sang three times: Archuleta sang "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me" (chosen by Clive Owen), "In This Moment" (The Idol Songwriter song), and "Imagine," his first big hit on the show; Cook sang "I Still

I agree with Perez: Ali Lohan is creepy!  There's something so strange and completely unnatural about her, don't you think?  Gives me the willies...The second season of Tila Tequila's A Shot At Love is starting of with a bang!  It didn't take the trashy straight guys long before they started drinking too much, hitting one another, and getting thrown out of the house and off the show!  Tila should

Talk shows count as reality TV, right?  Right.  Check out this clip from Oprah's show today--"Oprah's Favorite Things...for Summer."  As expected, the audience goes NUTS.  It's amazing.  I wish SNL would put their clips on YouTube so I could also share the sketch they do about it...  Apparently (hopefully?)

OK, so I meant to post this a day or two ago, but whatever.  I'm sure everyone is well aware that it's going to be a Battle of the Davids for the American Idol crown!  I can't wait.  In talking with some friends last night, it seems like people really don't know who is going to win; some people think Archuleta has the major advantage because of all the 12-15 year old girls that vote for the show,

Celebrity Rehab is coming back for another season, and so far Aaron Carter is the biggest "celeb" who has signed up!  According to Perez, he was offered a spot on the last season of Dancing With The Stars but turned it down--what an idiot!New reality show alert: RuPaul's Drag Race.  Seriously.  How amazing is that???Whitney became the first plus-size model to win America's Next Top Model!

The format for the semi-final show was simple: there were three rounds.  In the first round, the judges picked a song for the singers.  The second round was the contestant's choice.  The final round was a song chosen by "the producers."  Interesting.Paula chose "And So It Goes" for David Archuleta and it was absolutely beautiful.  The song itself has such a gorgeous melody and the arrangement was

Dancing With The Stars has given Juliane Hough the push she needed--to become a country singer! I don't even know what to say about that.This discovery prompted the question in my head: who else has a music video out there?...Phil Stacey, an Idol finalist that you probably don't remember from last year (I think)....then there's the always trampy Brooke Hogan's song "About Us."

Hopefully you've seen this clip already... It's from COPS, one of the most timeless and classic of all reality shows. Before Tila Tequila, before Kim Khardashian, before any of the Bachelors, the real people of America were creating this TV genre right before our very eyes. Thank you, COPS!

A few days ago, it was reported that Nina Garcia was fired from her post as Fashion Editor for Elle magazine... Obviously people began to speculate about how this would affect her standing as a judge on Project Runway. Perez explains it all. I do think it would be a big loss to the show if Nina was no longer a judge; I mean, she really has great taste and often plays the "Simon Cowell" roll on

Yes!  This is what I've been waiting for.  Apparently Britney Spears' people are trying to get a network to pick of a reality show starring everyone's favorite train wreck.  It's a long time coming, I say.  My guess is that VH1 or MTV will end up taking the bait...Did anyone watch the single episode of Secret Talents of the Stars on Tuesday night?  I didn't. Apparently no one else did, either,
