Alexa Chung Lands New, Boring Show on PBS

Posted on December 1, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Alexa Chung Lands New, Boring Show on PBS

As far as career moves go, this isn’t the kind most television personalities aim for: Alexa Chung is going from MTV to PBS. The former host of It’s On With Alexa Chung has signed on for Thrift America , an upcoming PBS program. It will premiere this summer and feature Chung combing through garage sales and flea markets in cities such as Detroit, Nashville and Brooklyn. Sounds like an utter bore. Do viewers really need to watch someone show us how to save money? Spending within one’s means is not a very complicated concept. We’ll take a drunken Situation or script-reading Brad Womack over this nonsense any day of the week.

Kara DioGuardi to Pen American Idol-Based Memoir

Posted on December 1, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Kara DioGuardi to Pen American Idol-Based Memoir

Forget trees falling in the forest. Consider this question: if someone pens a memoir, but no one ever reads it, does the book actually exist? We ask this question in light of the news that Kara DioGuardi will release “A Helluva High Note: Surviving Life, Love, And American Idol,” in April 2011. The songwriter, who was never very popular during her two years on the show, was fired/quit Idol in early September. DioGuardi says the autobiography “is meant to inspire others to take chances to succeed.” Her next career move will be serving as a judge on a new Bravo singer/songwriter competition titled Going Platinum . Will you purchase her memoir?
