Round of
Six
October 18
If you’re ready for a little more “Gimme”
your favorite D-List Celebs are back and ready for competition.
Host George Gray delivers the new challenge to the remaining six
celebrities and they learn that they will have to create their own
publicity stunt for themselves. Each celebrity can do whatever they
like, but the y will b judged on the amount of press coverage that the
get and the creativity of their event. The 2 lowest scoring celebrities
will be eliminated.
Susan Olsen, after a lackluster performance last week has chosen to
stick with the same theme. Cats. This time around Susan has decided to
call in some star power in the form of Barry Williams, TV’s Greg Brady.
The two meet up to have lunch at the Ivy, Hollywood’s place to see and
be seen, and on arrival they plan to bottle feed some baby cats.
During conception of the idea, Traci Bingham thought that it would be
fabulous if Susan were to breast feed the kittens. I think we are all
just going to have to accept that every idea out of Traci’s mouth will
involve mammaries.
Regardless, Susan’s plan went off almost too well as upon arrival she
crashed into Gretchen Bonaduce and ended up stealing her paparazzi.
Gretchen’s idea was that since she had not been seen in public with a
man since divorcing Danny Bonaduce, that it would be great if she went
out in public and acted like a cougar with a little bit of young man
candy on her arm. While this did garner her early attention, apparently
kittens trump himbos or as Susan puts it, Bradys trump Partridges.
Shall we go back to Traci’s mammaries? Traci is now hosting a casting
call for a show called America’s Sex Symbol and for some reason she has
rolled out the red carpet in a parking lot. As potential contestants
arrive, it becomes clear that Traci’s event is going to be a flop. She’s
got everything from Hookers to Grannies in line, but the numbers dwindle
at a total of around 20. Traci, ever the optimist, sees the flop of an
event as drawing publicity regardless of the lack of success.
Speaking of a lack of success, Ryan Starr is on a street corner in
Hollywood asking for money. All that is missing is the bikini. Ryan is
actually attempting to drum up publicity in a noble way by spending the
night outside as a fundraiser for homeless children. She isn’t getting
any press coverage, but she is getting the word out on a grassroots
level.
Speaking of grass, Kato Kaelin is holding a National’ Lampoon’s casting
call for “Frat Chance,” something I am sure will be a great movie for
stoners only. He’s at the beauty bar in Hollywood and getting a decent
number of actors, but his arrangements for Entertainment Tonight to stop
by were foiled when the existence of Gimme My Reality Show’s camera
prevented exclusivity. Never one to stay down on his luck too long, Kato
bounced from the casting call to a nearby celebrity poker event and
mugged it up for the cameras.
A.J. Benza on the other hand should have just planned a mugging as
opposed to his stunt. After failing to obtain young females arm candy he
ended up settling for his wife. Ah, fidelity. In an overly plotted
attempt to be an attention whore he had one of his staffers approach him
and ask his wife for her signature as Gretchen Bonaduce. A.J. the n took
the photos from the guy’s hands and ripped them up saying that the pics
weren’t even Gretchen, but rather Kim Kardashian (How the hell does Kim
get onto every damn show!). A.J. and his wife get in the car and speed
away. Yup, that’s it.
Judgment time.
The judges love that Susan was willing to do something goofy in public
and used star power. They do say that breast feeding the kittens would
have gotten her on TMZ, but getting one of her staffers banned from the
Ivy for sneaking kittens in by itself merits her show staying in
production.
They also liked Gretchen’s energy during her publicity event but think
that a little more making out was in order. Gretchen tells them about
how she wanted to get Danny Bonaduce involved and get him pissed, but
she managed to pull it off even though he shirked her. Gretchen is still
in production.
Adrianne in particular loved that train wreck that was Traci’s casting
call. Funnier yet, is that fact that Traci got more publicity when she
simply went to the super market to buy a pair of melons (You can’t make
this stuff up folks). Traci’s twins are still in production.
AJ barely even gets his judgment before he thanks the judges for the
experience claiming that he sat with his wife and wondered what it would
b like to have cameras in their house 24/7. They decided that life in
the public eye was not for them, and as such he is bowing out of the
competition. (We really need to create some kind of punitive damages for
people who quit reality shows).
With AJ leaving, George Gray refuses to say whether AJ would have been
in or out of production so we move on to Ryan.
The judges admire her heart and on cue Ryan turns into a sobbing mess.
She says that she can’t take eliminations and George reminds her that
she was on American Idol. Adrianne reminds everyone that she cried like
a baby there too. That said, while her heart was in the right place,
Adrianne says washing the car in a bikini overnight to raise money for
homeless kids would have gotten her the attention she needed. Ryan cries
further about how the local news did the weather across the street at
4am and completely ignored them. Well Ryan, while sex will get you
everywhere (eg Traci) tears will get you nowhere (unless you’re that
girl who loves Sanjaya). Ryan’s show is not being picked up.
That leaves Kato Kaelin. He’s really proud of the experience that he was
able to cultivate for the actors that attended the casting, but he knows
he should have had more publicity plans than just ET. It may have been
close, but Kato is still in production.
And so we have it. four celebs: Kato, Susan, Gretchen, and Traci all on
step closer to their own reality show. Next week it gets narrowed down
to 3 and then on November 4th you’ll elect the winner. It promises to be
a wild and bumpy ride. Hold on tight. |
