Brody Jenner’s “Bromance”

Posted on 13 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Do you want to be part of a Hollywood entourage? Do you want to be on a bizarre reality TV show? And most importantly, do you have a bit of a man-crush on Brody Jenner?

If you said “Yes!” to all of the above, then it’s your lucky day, boys; because Mr. Jenner is looking for a new wingman in the show “Bromance”!

Ever since losing a member of his crew (:cough: Spencer Pratt :cough:), Jenner has been feeling like something is missing–and to fill the gap, he will have his own reality TV show to find his man!

Brody Jenner like girls, but wants a Bromance

The guys in the show will be competing similarly to “Rock of Love” or “Tila Tequila” style. The guys will take part in competitions, like skydiving, as well as try to win alone time with Brody. There is even a “hot tub elimination ceremony” each week when one of the potential bros get kicked out.

…Wait…does anyone else think this sounds kind of…gay?

The show is produced for MTV by Ryan Seacrest’s production companies. Ryan himself has said,

I can speak from experience — girls can come and go, but a ‘bromance’ can last forever.

This seems to be kind of an odd thing for Seacrest to say, especially since he has repeatedly tried to deny gay rumors. So despite having hot tub eliminations, man on man alone time, and being called “Bromance”, the show is supposed to appear (almost) completely heterosexual. It’s all in the name of fun–and I guess it’s just guy-love!

“Bromance” in air for “Hills” co-star Jenner

Posted on 10 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - “The Hills” co-star Brody Jenner is getting his own MTV series.

The network has committed to six episodes of “Bromance,” which has been the subject of recent online attention. The show, from Ryan Seacrest’s production company, will feature a group of “regular guys” who come to Hollywood and compete in a series of challenges, from skydiving to dealing with the paparazzi — in hopes of being chosen by Jenner to become part of his entourage.

Along the way, contestants will be whittled down via “Hot Tub Elimination Ceremonies” after which rejected “bros” will be asked to leave the bachelor pad dripping wet in a swimsuit, luggage in hand. Bringing to mind various dating reality shows, contestants also will have shots at a “group date” and “alone time” with Jenner in every episode.

“‘Bromance’ takes a successful TV format and turns it on its head,” MTV senior vp series development Liz Gateley said. “Brody is the perfect fit for this concept; he is the type of guy everyone wants to hang out with.”

Lindsay And Samantha Still Gal Pals & Possible Madonna Tour Designer

Posted on 10 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Your Daily Dispatch of Celebrity Shenanigans

Lindsay & Samantha Still Gal Pals: After reportedly having a tiff at LA sushi hotspot, Katsuya, Lindsay Lohan and DJ Samantha Ronson were spotted on the set of Lindsay’s new film, “Labor Pains,” hugging and laughing with each other, Us Weekly reports. What can’t their friendship endure?

Lindsay’s Visa Campaign: Besides films and Samantha-time, Lindsay is busy fronting Visa’s Swap fashion event, which encourages people in the UK “to swap their unwanted clothes at the world’s biggest and most popular fashion swapping event,” according to Visa. “I am so excited to be involved with this year’s Visa Swap event,” Lindsay said in a statement. “The concept of swapping clothes, getting something for nothing and refreshing your wardrobe appeals to everyone.” No word on who the actress will swap clothes with, but we’re guessing anyone with a fur coat won’t be going anywhere near Lindsay.

The Bro Show: If you thought the cast of “The Hills” was going away anytime soon, think again! Brody Jenner, LC’s sometimes boyfriend, has landed his own show, Us Weekly reports. “Bromance” will pit “regular” guy against one another competing to be Brody’s best bro. Bro hopefuls who don’t measure up will be sent home in a “hot tub elimination ceremony.” Will the shamed, dripping wet, not-cool-enough-for-Brody runner-up get his own show called, “The Bro-chelor?”

‘The O.C.:The Movie’?– Not For Bilson: It appears sometimes you can’t always go home, at least for Seth, Ryan, Marissa and Summer. When asked about a potential big screen treatment for television’s “The O.C.,” Rachel Bilson told Moviefone.com, “No. I had somebody else ask me that because of ‘Sex and The City’ the movie, but I was like, ‘No.’ I’d watch ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Movie’, though!”

Possible Madonna Tour Designer: Design duo Heatherette, who have styled Gwen Stefani, Pamela Anderson, Mya, Kelis, Pink and Paris Hilton, could be working their magic on the material girl, MTV News reports. “Her publicist, just contacted us and said that she wants us to come up with some sketches, some ideas and some inspirations for her tour,” one half of the design team, Richie Rich told MTV. “She already did the cowboy hat, so we’ll need to think of something else.” Bring back the cones!
