| Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi
Karega season 3 : 2010 - Audition over
Bollywood choreographer-director Farah Khan, a judge on television reality show "Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega", has promised a group of contesting 15 girls and boys a chance to be part of one of her films. "I have promised a group of very talented young girls and boys who performed 'b-boying' (a type of break dance) that I will give them a chance in my film whenever I am working on something where I can use their talent," Farah told IANS over phone from Mumbai. A street dance style that evolved as part of the hip hop movement among African American and Puerto Rican youths in Manhattan during the early 1970s, b-boying has now caught the fancy of youth in several cities. Farah, who has made films like "Main Hoon Na" and "Om Shanti Om", said the act by the Mumbai-based group involved innovative hip-hop, awe-inspiring stunts as well as acrobatics, making it "fascinating" to watch. "The act they did has never been seen before in Indian cinema and that is also one reason which attracted me to give them my word," said Farah. The director added that she has witnessed some "extraordinary" and "strange" acts on "Entertainment Ke Liye...", a multi-talent reality show produced by Wizcraft Television that is aired on Sony TV. "There was one guy who made balloons with saliva - we voted him out. There was another guy who showed how to put kajal (kohl) using a sword - there are acts as strange as this but I am thoroughly enjoying being a part of this show," said Farah, who shares the judge's seat along with music composer Anu Malik. Namit Sharma, business head and chief creative director of Wizcraft, said though the show was not primarily a talent hunt for Bollywood, they would be "more than happy" if contestants make it to the industry. "Originally the idea was not to open that window (Bollywood) to them; it's not a Bollywood talent hunt show. But if our contestants end up doing well in Bollywood we will be more than happy," Sharma told IANS. "Farah and Annu are fantastic judges and also have a phenomenal eye for talent. We are thrilled that they are a part of the show and if they can become a medium via which our contestants get their big Bollywood break, that's phenomenal," he added. On "Entertainment Ke Liye..." contestants are given a
chance to display their talent and enthrall the judges as well as audiences
within a span of one minute. If they succeed, they are given a prize money
of Rs.10,000 as well as a chance to compete on a weekly grand finale where
they can walk away with a Rs.500,000 cheque.

The Phenomenon Continues American Idol returns for its much-anticipated ninth season in January 2010. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest, television's No. 1 hit series empowers contestants and viewers to share their voices in deciding who will be America's next singing superstar. This new season promises to deliver amazing, undiscovered talent with plenty of surprises along the way. Every year, tens of thousands of hopefuls from across the nation audition for a shot at stardom. The show's judges - Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi - travel across the country in search of the next American Idol. They winnow down the competitors to a select group of semifinalists who sing their hearts out each week in front of a studio audience and television viewers. This season, joined by rotating guest judges including Victoria Beckham, Mary J. Blige, Joe Jonas, Neil Patrick Harris, Shania Twain and Kristin Chenoweth, the American Idol judges visited Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles and Orlando in their quest to find performers worthy of the "Golden Ticket" to Hollywood. Emmy Award-winning talk show host Ellen DeGeneres will join American Idol as the new fourth judge sitting alongside Simon, Randy and Kara. As the new judge, Ellen will offer her own unique perspective to the contestants throughout the competition. The judges have their say after every performance, but it's the viewing public that determines who will advance to the next round of competition and who will go home. Voting via telephone and text-messaging begins immediately after each performance show, and the results are announced during the following night's broadcast. Eventually the competition is narrowed down to two finalists who compete for a major recording contract and the American Idol title. Past winners Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks, David Cook and Kris Allen have become household names and have made their mark on the recording industry. Emmy Award-winning American Idol is created and executive-produced by Simon Fuller, founder of 19 Entertainment Ltd. The series is executive-produced by Cecile Frot-Coutaz, CEO, FremantleMedia North America; and Ken Warwick, Executive Producer, FremantleMedia North America. Bruce Gowers serves as director. Audition

Website : http://www.nbc.com/Americas_Toughest_Jobs/ From creator/executive producer Thom Beers ("Deadliest Catch," "Ice Road Truckers") and executive producers Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun, "America's Toughest Jobs" is a new extreme competition series that will test 13 men and women who venture out of their safe and comfortable careers and are injected into some of the most challenging, dangerous and demanding jobs on earth. From logging high in the Washington forest to oil drilling on the Texas range, and driving icy roads to extreme fishing - each job requires guts and stamina, and the competitors will have to live up to the same standards as the pros. At the end of each episode, their new boss and co-workers will determine success or failure, and those who don't make the grade will be sent home. Upping the ante, the annual salary of each job will be thrown into the pot until the finale - where one rookie will take home the well-earned cash. Hosted by Josh Temple (TLC's "Backyard Nation), "America's Toughest Jobs" is created by Thom Beers and produced by Original Productions and BermanBraun.

Website : http://www.cwtv.com/shows/americas-next-top-model13/ AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL welcomes one of the most influential members of the fashion world, André Leon Talley, as a new judge during cycle 14 of the hit show on The CW. Thirteen new hopefuls from across the country are given the chance to prove they have what it takes when the competition kicks off with a 90-minute premiere on Wednesday, March 10 (8:00-9:30 p.m. ET). Talley, who will join Tyra Banks, photographer Nigel Barker and a weekly guest judge on the judges' panel, is one of the fashion industry's most influential style-setters. Currently serving as the editor-at-large of Vogue, Talley is prominent in the world of designer fashion and has a front-row seat to runway shows all over the world. Miss J. Alexander, long-time judge, breaks free from the judges' desk to take on a mentoring role during challenges with the models. "After cycles of watching the girls not get it right, I thought they would benefit more from my ‘high heels' and hands-on approach than my sitting in a chair judging their photos," said Alexander. "And with Andre Leon Talley, this should be the best cycle yet."

Website : http://www.nbc.com/last-comic-standing/ NBC's laugh fest "Last Comic Standing" returns for a seventh season with new host Craig Robinson ("The Office") who will helm the search for the funniest comedian in America. Joining Robinson as judges are respected comedians Greg Giraldo, Andy Kindler and Natasha Leggero. As with previous seasons, celebrity talent judges in Los Angeles and New York will watch performances from aspiring and professional comedians. In addition to the open casting calls, "Last Comic Standing" will invite some of the best and brightest comics from all over the country to participate in the competition. Then America will vote to decide who will be the "Last Comic Standing" and win a $250,000 prize and an exclusive talent deal with NBC. "Last Comic Standing" is produced by Universal Media Studios and Peter Engel Productions. Peter Engel, Jayson Dinsmore and Barry Katz serve as Executive Producers, along with Co-Executive Producers Javier Winnik and Page Hurwitz. Host: Craig Robinson Robinson joins "Last Comic Standing" as host of the Emmy-nominated series' seventh season. He also currently stars on NBC's hit comedy "The Office" as sarcastic Dunder-Mifflin warehouse worker Darryl Philbin. Currently, he co-stars in the MGM laugher "Hot Tub Time Machine" with Rob Corddry and John Cusack. In a dramatically different role, Robinson will soon be seen in the independent feature "Father of Invention" with Kevin Spacey and Camilla Belle. The film recently premiered at the Berlin Film Festival. Robinson can also be heard this summer in the final chapter of the Shrek films, "Shrek Forever After." In the past few years, he has made his mark in the film world as well, stealing scenes in every project in which he appears. He made audiences question their notions of vanity playing the sensitive bouncer in "Knocked Up," kept them glued to their seats as one of the henchman hunting Seth Rogen and James Franco's bumbling stoner characters in "Pineapple Express," and shocked them silly at the end of "Fanboys" as the surprise guest playing a THX Security Guard on site at Lucas Ranch. Robinson's additional credits include the films "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" and Tyler Perry's "Daddy's Little Girls" and television shows including "Friends," "The Bernie Mac Show," and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Robinson continues to build out every element of his resume, turning in a hilarious cameo in "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" as one of the Tuskegee Airmen, lending his comedy genius to fellow Apatow devotee Danny McBride in an episode of his HBO television series "East Bound & Down," and starring in several comedies including "Miss March" and "The Goods" with Jeremy Piven. He also co-starred with Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks in "Zach and Miri Make a Porno" and turned up as a preacher in the demonstrative web video celebrity push in support of gay rights, "Prop 8: The Musical" with Jack Black, John C. Reilly, and Neil Patrick Harris. Beginning as a stand-up comedian, Robinson first made his mark in the comedy circuit at the 1998 Montreal "Just for Laughs" Festival. That year, he also won the Oakland Comedy Festival Awards and the Miller Genuine Draft 1996 Comedy Search. He soon went on to perform his act on "The Jimmy Kimmel Show," and "Real Time with Bill Maher." Now headlining venues and festivals across the country, he does both solo acts as well as full-band sets - "The Nasty Delicious" - tying together his lyrical comedy with his finesse at the piano. Whether Robinson shows up with just his keyboard or also with his seven-man band, the clubs are packed to the brim with raucous laughter in response to the musical comedy on display. Before deciding to pursue his comedy career full time, Robinson was a K-8 teacher in the Chicago Public School System. He earned his undergraduate degree from Illinois State University and his Masters of Education from St. Xavier University. It was while he was studying education in Chicago that he also discovered his love of acting and comedy when he joined the famed Second City Theatre. Robinson currently resides in Los Angeles.
Greg Giraldo has become a staple of the American comedy scene. Socially provocative and yet broadly funny, Greg is one of the most versatile and highly entertaining comics working today. Greg's first one hour special, "Midlife Vices" premiered recently on Comedy Central and is available nationwide in stores. "Midlife Vices" made numerous "best of" lists at the end of 2009. Greg will soon be seen as a judge on NBC's "Last Comic Standing" and recently had a recurring role on IFC's "Z Rock Show". Greg also wrote for and was one of the main cast members on Lewis Black's "Root of All Evil" for Comedy Central. Greg is also developing his own show for Spike TV. He continues to be the most featured Roaster on the Comedy Central Roasts, and has roasted Bob Saget, William Shatner, Flava Flav, and Pamela Anderson to name a few. Greg is still well known from his stint as a regular panelist on Comedy Central's Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn. In addition to his two half hour stand-up specials, Comedy Central Presents…Greg Giraldo, Greg also has performed on Late Show with David Letterman (CBS), and he has been a guest on Late Night with Conan O' Brien (NBC) a dozen times, and most recently performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live (ABC) and appeared on The Wanda Sykes Show (FOX). When he is not touring comedy clubs, colleges, theaters
and corporate events, he can be found living in New York City.
For the past six years, Natasha Leggero has performed stand-up all over the country and abroad. Her TV stand-up performances include appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," and "The Comedy Factory" on Dutch television. Leggero has played various deviants in her three-year recurring stint on "Reno 911" and also recurred on "'Til Death." She has starred in recent pilots for ABC ("Pulling"), NBC ("The Strip"), and Comedy Central ("Gay Robot"), and was also the star of the MTV hit series "The '70s House." She has guest starred on "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," "Samantha Who," "Worst Week" and "The Sarah Silverman Program." You can see her in the movie "He's Just Not That Into You" and as a regular panelist on E!'s "Chelsea Lately." Most recently, Leggero co-created and starred in "Dumb,"
a pilot that parodies the celebutante world that was bought by VH1, and
voiced the female lead in Comedy Central's animation "Ugly Americans."
Andy Kindler is known in comedy circles as a troublemaker. Originally from New York, and now complaining from California, he annoys people all over the world. Kindler is a frequent guest and correspondent for "The Late Show with David Letterman." Each summer at the "Just for Laughs" festival in Montreal he delivers the "State of the Industry" address to a packed ballroom filled with comics and Hollywood industry types. He is infamous for his scathing attacks on the world of entertainment, including the previously taboo practice of making fun of his fellow comedians. Just as the comedy boom of the '90s was imploding, Kindler wrote the "Hack's Handbook" for National Lampoon. This how-to guide satirized and exposed tired comedy formulas. Kindler can soon be seen in his second Comedy Central half-hour special. He currently recurs on "Wizards of Waverly Place" and the upcoming animation, "Bob's Burgers." He was also recently a regular comedy litigator on "The Root of all Evil." Other noteworthy credits include the "HBO Young Comedians Special," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," "The Daily Show," "Dr. Katz Professional Therapist," "Home Movies" and "The Larry Sanders Show." Kindler is often recognized for playing the life-affirming character Andy on "Everybody Loves Raymond." |
| Kitchen Nightmares
Website : http://www.fox.com/kitchennightmares/ Famed chef and Michelin Star winner Gordon Ramsay steps out of his own five-star establishments and into some of the country's most unsanitary and unsuccessful restaurants to help them turn their businesses around or close their doors forever. Each week, Chef Ramsay will attempt to turn one ordinary and empty restaurant into the most popular, sought-after venue in town. He reveals the behind-the-scenes realities of running a restaurant and wastes no time getting down to business - implementing signature menu items, updating dated décor and making the restaurant run as smooth as possible. With his reputation on the line, Ramsay accepts nothing less than the best when it comes to the food, staff and customer service. While still prone to the explosive outbursts and spectacular confrontations familiar to fans, Ramsay reveals a sensitive and nurturing side as he coaches, cheers and challenges the restaurant staff, all the way from appetizers through dessert. KITCHEN NIGHTMARES is a co-production of Granada America and Optomen in association with A. Smith & Co. Arthur Smith, Kent Weed and Patricia Llewellyn serve as executive producers. Each week, Chef Ramsay will attempt to turn one ordinary and empty restaurant into the most popular, sought-after venue in town. Scottish by birth, Gordon Ramsay was brought up in England after his parents moved south to Stratford-upon-Avon. His first career break came while playing football for Oxford United, where he was spotted by a Glasgow Rangers scout in a F.A. youth club match. After completing trials, he was signed by the Scottish champions at age 15. Three years later he gave up professional football and went back to college to complete a course in hotel management. Ramsay then moved to London, where he joined Chef Marco Pierre White in the early days of Harvey's in Wandsworth. After a couple of years, he moved to Le Gavroche to work alongside Albert Roux. This was followed by three years of working in France in the kitchens of Guy Savoy and Joël Robuchon. Here he was able to enhance his expertise in classic French cooking. In October 1993, Ramsay became chef of the newly opened Aubergine where he won many accolades, including two Michelin stars within three years of its debut. Chef Ramsay published his first cookbook, "Passion for Flavour," in October 1996. His second book, "Passion for Seafood," was published in May 1999. "A Chef for All Seasons" was published in September 2000, followed by "Just Desserts" in September 2001, "Secrets" in 2003, "Gordon Ramsay Makes It Easy" in 2005, "Gordon Ramsay's Sunday Lunch" in 2006 and "Gordon Ramsay's Fast Food." His latest cookbook, "Gordon Ramsay's Healthy Appetite," was published in May 2008 and is the current No. 1 best-seller in the U.K. To date, Ramsay has sold over 4 million cookbooks worldwide. In 1998, at age 31, Ramsay set up his first wholly owned restaurant, Gordon Ramsay, on the former site of La Tante Claire in Chelsea. Widely considered to be his flagship restaurant, Gordon Ramsay underwent a major refurbishment in 2006 and remains London's most sought-after dining establishment. In 1999, Ramsay opened Pétrus in St. James's. Within seven months the restaurant won a Michelin star, and after relocating to Knightsbridge in 2003, won its second Michelin star in January 2007. In October 2001, Ramsay opened Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's, which gained a Michelin star in 2003. |
| Hell's Kitchen
Website : http://www.fox.com/hellskitchen/ HELL'S KITCHEN returns for a seventh season as a new crop of aspiring restaurateurs strives to show their cooking expertise in hopes of winning a life-changing culinary prize. Superstar chef Gordon Ramsay takes command of the kitchen and splits the chefs into two teams - the red team and the blue team. Both will compete to win various challenges such as feeding the University of Southern California marching band, creating a 1950s-inspired menu, and hosting a 50th wedding anniversary celebration. hellskitchen/_ui/images/about/bg_blockquote01.png While the challenges are grueling, the rewards are sweet as some winning teams get to enjoy relaxing stays at the beach, helicopter rides or trips to gourmet restaurants. The losers are left behind to perform mundane tasks, including cleaning the kitchen, polishing silver, ironing the linens and prepping that night's dinner service. As the chefs are winnowed down, only those who catch Ramsay's eye will get to advance to the next round. Hoping for the coveted black chef jacket, the chefs will compete against one another, striving to survive another week. Eventually two finalists will compete head-to-head to impress Ramsay with five-star dishes, but only the one who possesses the right combination of passion, skill and drive will become the winner of HELL'S KITCHEN. |
