Brandi Glanville’s new show is the latest incarnation from Irwin Entertainment! I love Irwin Entertainment! I’m currently an episode behind on their Couples Therapy show and watched every season of Celebrity Rehab. It appears that Celebrity Rehab is no longer filming so this is the closest that Brandi Glanville and this gang can get. The new show Famously Single “explores and analyzes the compelling world of celebrity romance. Through eight, hour-long episodes, viewers get exclusive access to the rich, (BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA) famous, and seemingly lovelorn. Bringing their romances from tabloid headlines to life, eight single celebrities will reveal the truth behind their breakups, public divorces and bad relationships, ( As if we needed to hear about how Eddie cheated with LeAnn some more…) and then with the help of a team of experts, (You are going to need Dr. Drew for this) attempt to identify, and solve their relationship concerns (falling down drunk, exposed vagina, Tampon strings, physically carried out of gay clubs, violent drunken attacks on other women, blackouts, homelessness, public displays of stupidity to name just a few) once and for all. (good luck with that) Hear directly from the source and find out why these celebs have it all (We’re going to need a GYN for this part) … but can’t seem to find love.”
Just like Couples Therapy and Celebrity Rehab the eight love-challenged celebrities move into a loft in downtown Los Angeles where relationship therapist Dr. Darcy Sterling, along with other experts (hopefully shrinks, addiction counselors, and medical doctors who deal with STDs) will help these stars come to terms with the cold hard truths behind their questionable romantic history. Through a series of exercises, one-on-one sessions and real dates, viewers will get a voyeuristic bird’s eye view of the stars’ emotional journeys as they learn how to find love. The celebs will be paired up for most exercises resulting in the perfect balance of conflict and chemistry as they challenge each other through their relationship-rehab.
Meet the “Famously Single” Cast:
- Brandi Glanville – The former troublemaker of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” is unfiltered and notorious for her antics on the hit Bravo series. Brandi is unapologetic and direct. A former model, this beauty publicly struggles to get past her ex-husband’s affairs.
- Jessica White – Gorgeous supermodel, known for dating Sean Penn and Nick Cannon. Jessica’s dating history is in constant conflict, which frequently lands the beauty in many gossip magazines.
- Somaya Reece – The OG of the VH1 series “Love & Hip Hop Hollywood” is constantly making headlines and caught in a web of woman involved with the same man. Somaya is ready to open up about her tumultuous relationship record.
- Aubrey O’Day – The former Danity Kane star, now lead of the alternative-pop duo Dumblonde, yearns to get to the bottom of her questionable dating life.
- Pauly D – The “Jersey Shore” star, who openly admits he’s never been in love, is looking to dodge the dating grenades and experience true love for the first time.
- Josh Murray – Constantly cycling through girls and revealing his latest conquests via social media, the notorious “Bachelorette” hunk is ready to set the record straight with the world… and himself.
- Willis McGahee – The NFL All-Pro player is constantly struggling to keep his love life out of the headlines. Sick of tackling the rumors and haters, he’s ready to change his behavior and his reputation.
- Calum Best – The British model, TV personality, and party boy no longer wants to date wild girls. He’s ready to ditch the bad boy mantra to focus on his future.
So we are going to pair Brandi with Calum, Willis with Somaya, Josh with Jessica and Pauly D with Aubrey? I’m just guessing here. This will not go well.
So they film for a week while Eddie and Leann try to keep the kids alive? Sounds lovely.
I HAD TOTALLY BLOCKED AUBREY O’DAY FROM MY MEMORY. FOR MY THOUGHTS ON HER, READ HERE.
I for one will be watching and recapping if I am still alive when it airs in 2016. (Probably summer). Even though the only two I have ever heard of are Brandi and Pauly D. Oh and I would probably know who Josh is if he was on The Bachelorette. I’m going to guess he is the one who is desparate for attention and crashes every season of The Bachelorette?
Who is with me?
Aubrey O Day was on the Apprentice. She was pretty annoying. Other than her I also only know of Brandi and Pauly D. It appears to be Reality tv rejects. Oy. These people are probably NO one anyone wants to date!!
This is just about as low as you can go in the reality t.v. world. Seems like we just got through Aubrey O’Day faking her way through couples therapy. I think it is sad for Brandi’s kids, and as for the others I really have no interest in watching. But I do like Couples Therapy, so I’m on the fence.
Oh I remember her she was in a group called Danity Kane worked with P Diddy
For some reason, I imagine this as a warped Facts of Life (anyone else remember that show?) where Brandi plays the grandmotherly headmaster role while repeatedly proving to the kids that she “still gets her period”.
I don’t know. Guess the therapy didn’t work since she showed up with that T-shirt afterwards.
Maybe Jennifer Gimenez will pop up and dispense advise so that everyone can live the “sober Jennifer” life–which involves being bitchy and lecturing everyone around her except for the people who need it most.
Oh, and I really miss Celebrity Rehab and I am in married lady love with Dr Drew no matter what anyone else says.
Oh yeah. I know Aubrey. I must have blocked her out! I depised her so much I wrote a post called I HATE AUBREY ODAY it’s one of my most popular posts. I also wrote about her and Nene and a goat once.
Also I don’t think they’ve had their sleepover yet. I know Brandi said she started filming, but it was probably pre production stuff.
Those posts are hilarious
So THIS is the show Brandi’s been bragging about. What a loser.
A show about losers, hmmm….
I am wondering if we are all the same demographic since the only one I have ever watched is Brandi. Heard of Pauly December and Aubrey O’Day but probably wouldn’t recognize them in a line up.
I am in though, especially if It is in the summer!
On a side note… first time I have “met” someone else that liked Celebrity Rehab as much as me! My love for Dr. Drew started with Loveline… and thank God above for him…. heaven knows my university, as much as I love it and appreciate my education there, didn’t prepare me for students coming to me with the issues they did… pregnancy, bad relationships (with someone clearly not healthy or appropriate ), and addiction. But honestly, I am proud that I got one student to join a teen AARON using, almost word for word, things Drew and Adam said to kids calling in.
But I think Celebrity Rehab died with Mike Starr. I am related to someone close to people involved with Alice in Chains… can’t give away too many details be cause of the whole Anonymous part of AA… but it is no secret that there are other members of Alice that were critical of Celebrity Rehab even before Mike died. Dr. Drew came up randomly when we were together and he went OFF. But I don’t know if even Dr. Drew would be overly critical of them… they have had their own rough paths to sobriety and his death on top of Layne s, and the details of such being aired and scrutinized on the show had to be incredibly painful. My relative is only protective of his circle, and the concept of rehab being eh industry closed doors with that circle of trust.
Janice Dickinson is going to have to break up with Dr. Gerner to get a gig on this show, if there is a season two.
So true. And a keen observation.
The Best Comment!!!
Calum Best was on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK (he’s a Brit). I love him but he can be a total tool. He dated Lindsey Lohan. Even so, I’ll be very disappointed if he hooks up with Brandi. I just realized I think dating BG is worse than dating LL. Kind of puts things in perspective…
Completely off topic but want to put a warning out there for others. Received my credit card statement this afternoon & some asshole charged $4,000 worth of mdse to my account. Fortunately the guy’s not too bright — not only did he open a PayPal Acct with my CC info but he also opened an eBay account where he’s currently selling the merchandise!
I’ve had security alerts on my card for years (where any suspicious purchases are blocked & no purchases can be made out of state without my consent) BUT I was told nothing can be done to prevent Internet purchases. Please, guard your cards like a hawk.
Addie2U Thanks for the information. I hope you got your money back.
Wow Addie2U – that’s awful! Thanks for sharing the details, I worry about that happening too and really should have a block on the cards. Hopefully your CC stands with you and reverses all charges asap.
Sorry to hear Addie2U. Had a similar experience with eBay and PayPal. I have a little side business selling things I no longer want in order to supplement my income. I blame the credit card company who somehow feels they have no accountability for internet charges but if someone charges 5grand on your CC, that should have been a red flag and the CC company should have called you to verify the purchases. The person in question for me bought an Apple iWatch I got from a brokerage firm where I just rolled over my IRA. I sold it and got instant payment on PayPal said the payment was clear. Transferred the funds from PayPal to my bank and within 4 weeks the buyer claims she never authorized the purchase but will not return the watch. She complain to her CC company and they are doing a chargeback. Fortunately I fell under PayPal’s sellers protection and they are fighting the charge
Internet charges are very problematic in Austin people use them as a means of stealing your property claiming that they never authorized such payments from their credit card because they had never had any intention of paying for the item to begin with
WOW! Her face is really puffy! I hope this is an old picture and the injections have worn off
Ugh Calum Best. He’s done every reality show here in Britain including one very similar to this
I will watch for your recaps but I can’t stomach watching Brandi anymore. My ten cent bet is that if drinking is involved, we will hear a whole lot of “F*ck yous” from her and she will end up sleeping with everyone.
I wont watch but I am looking forward to TT’s recaps!
Dear Brandi, the reason guys wont date you is because they know the price of leaving you is stalking, two nasty reputation destroying books and twitter bashing. No one wants to be on the other end of you and your vicious fans. Ask Eddie and Leann. Seven years later and we are still hearing about this crap. A guy would be a fool….
I hope they add an STD specialist to the roster. Alledgedly.
Another lover of Celebrity Rehab here. I foolishly keep hoping it will come back. As for this show….if you are blogging about it, then obviously I’m in. 🙂
Sounds like the “celebrity” version of the show Tough Love that had some matchmaker guy and his mother attempting to make unappealing women into relationship ready marriage material.
Why do these stupid shows have to have a dumb ass theme?> Can’t they just let them all live together and see what happens naturally a la “the surreal life”. Or Brandi and Eddie on Temptation Island? Ugg. Though I will read your recaps TT.
Not sure how to get to the Aubrey O’Day post. I’d love to read it.
My only problem with her is that I remember she had an altercation at the airport because she wanted to bring TWO mental health dogs onboard with her. Something about always setting them on the table at restaurants as well.
I really really hate it when people abuse the service dog option. I’m very much in favor of service dogs, but this new trend of calling a pet a service dog because it licks you when you are anxious is really insulting to the truly disabled who need assistance.
Look Tamara, they’ve got your girl Aubrey!!!! I’ll watch more for your comments on her than BG! Who is going to be watching her little men while she’s away? 8 hours is what? 3,4 days of filming?
Tamara you will have special tea access on Josh Murray since he has ATL connections.
He’s the former minor league ball player who went back to school in his late 20’s to play football at UGA. Apparently it was mostly to support his little brother who was the QB. He lived in Atlanta (not sure if he stil does) and had a short-lived engagement to Andi from her Bachelorette season. He seemed nice but not terribly deep.
Willis McGahee was on Rhoa in a casual date scene with Kandi when she was started dating after AJ died.
Other than Brandi and Pauly D, I’ve never heard of any of those people. They are all highly dysfunctional in so many ways…I don’t think I’ll bother wasting my time watching. I’ll just read the recaps here. 🙂
So instead of tweeting nasty crap about LR and EC we now get it acted out for us. Oh Goody!
She will no doubt be wearing her SU and STFU fashion line. Nothing says I am attractive and open to love as well as a STFU tshirt.
Josh Murray surprises me. I guess he is more of a publicity hound than I got from watching his time with Andi on the Bachelorette. The entire premise of this show is like one slow motion wreck.
If it was anyone but Brandi, I would think she would be profoundly embarrassed to be on a show with them- but she must be both desperate for money and for ANY TV time- which is clearly all she is getting.
I can think of no one whose career rose from one of these lows- ugh! And she just had to be sure the world knew the minute she was filming for an instant, for a low rated, budget basement, garbage show. How lost is she? And this is what her son had to tell the world!!!
Ha, ha, ha. It reminds me of the dance The Limbo, how low can you go?
Brandi made it sound like she was getting her own show lol I may watch, but there’s no one in the cast that makes it a must see.
I added some links in for the Audrey posts. I really could not stand her on Celebrity Apprentice. I love that show and she made the whole viewing experience unbearable.
As for Josh, oh that attention whore. Yes, he is … a more polished version of Juan Pablo.
Brandi is on a show where she has the most impressive resume. That’s just sad.
Josh is sooo cute and so is his dog. Other than that? *yawn* Unless I’m really missing something?
The only one that is missing from this G list lineup is Farrah Abraham.
Hmm, I’ve come to believe Brandi wrecked her marriage, not anyone else.
Leann wasn’t the first, just the last.
Brandi has talked about her escapades while married, not cool.
I do not want to hear her crap again!
I raised three boys mostly alone and did my share of embarrassing them.
Never would my boys stayed with
me if I only did a little of what she has done publically.
She has lowered the bar of acceptable behavior for her son’s.
The line we draw as parents is what I believe helps keep our children on a good course.
Wish the boys were with Leann.
Thank you TT for this photo. The face looks like it could use one of Shannon’s colonics. One can only wonder what would come out!
Aubrey O’Day is even trashier than Brandy. But I have full faith in our girl to get competitive?
This show is actually really good! While yes, some induce drama every corner they turn, this is reality – these are the same people that we encounter every day @ work, school, airports, restaurants, night clubs – heck even families. We could use a better understanding of these people & they are getting therapy through group work that the viewers can watch & learn from. They also bring to light issues that the viewer may have and it makes one think more about theirselves. I watched tonight and see sides of me in many of these girls, that I would’ve previously denied. No man wants to be around a woman who is clingy or needy or mouthy or wears too much makeup. Unless they’re out for one thing and don’t care, but this show is about helping them realize their faults so they can find love & in the right way. We all want to be happy and fun to be around and loving, but as you can see some can’t break out of that shell. It’s the happy, easy going people that others are attracted to into ally, which can turn in to a perfect relationship. I’m just sayin’ they are on to something with this show. I never watched the other reality / therapy show mentioned within this blog, but this is a good way to think about how you can change. See your own faults & work to improve based on the reactions of others and the professionals discussions afterwards. I want to be involved in something like this to get valuable feedback on now I come across to others, miscomminicate to others, how I can improve my skill set to draw better people near me. Or I hope more shows are released after this one. I give it 9 stars just from tonight’s show (probably a re-run) alone.
