#CBS #KandiBurress #CelebrityBigBrother #Bravo CBS announced yesterday that Kandi will join the cast of Celebrity Big Brother (along with other celebrities like Tamar Braxton). The announcement came as a surprise to executives at Bravo, MTO News has learned. And folks are furious with Kandi, not just for choosing to go on another reality show while she's on The Housewives; but for going on a reality show that comes on at the same time as the Housewives. An awestruck Bravo executive told MTO News, "Big Brother will be running at the same time as Real Housewives of Atlanta. She's directly competing with us." The insider continued, "What the f*ck was she thinking." And it's true. Celebrity Big Brother starts next week - and while it's a daily show - it runs at the same time as Atlanta Housewives on Sundays. Look: And it's not just the behind the scenes execs that are upset with Kandi. Last night on WWHL...

#Heidi Klum #TimGunn “#ProjectRunway”  initially launched on #Bravo (owned by NBC Universal) in December of 2004, not long after Weinstein started dating fashion designer Georgina Chapman. In the heady days of reality TV’s ascendance, it was a sleeper hit. The series has been nominated for Emmys every single year it’s been on the air, as well as a Peabody Award. But the drama behind the scenes at “Project Runway” has always matched the spectacle in front of the camera, from Weinstein taking the show to Lifetime because he felt Bravo wasn’t paying enough to the lawsuit from NBC Universal that followed. Not to mention Lifetime's entire “Project Runway” cottage industry of spinoffs, like the short-lived "Under the Gunn." Now, Bravo has swooped in to buy back the hit from Weinstein’s former company. But with some of the most visible cast members walking, and the show already a shell of its former self, can the series once dubbed “The Greatest Show On Earth” by its fans ri...

For one thing, Padma Lakshmi recently revealed what part of Top Chef is actually scripted. And we also learned why the fridges in the kitchen are so far apart. Plus, a Top Chef top exec recently told The Feast about a very charming habit Tom Colicchio is known for when he's on set. Now, thanks to Padma, we know even more about life on set — and some of Tom's less universally charming (yet extremely inspirational) on-set habits! Padma shared a new Instagram post geotagged to Louisville, Kentucky, which she captioned, "What *actually* happens behind-the-scenes on @bravotopchef."

Jeff Lewis is out of a job after 11 years on Bravo. The controversial Flipping Out star revealed his contract with Bravo had expired on Monday, sharing a picture of his going away card. 'I guess there's no going away party?' wrote the real estate speculator turned TV star, adopting a sad face. +4 Out of a job: Flipping Out's Jeff Lewis reveals Bravo have cancelled his contract as he says 'guess there's no going away party' While obviously humorous, the card did not shy away from highlighting Lewis' faults, with captions such as 'loser', 'your 15 minutes are up', and 'better luck with radio'. The card also featured Jeff with a red cross through his face - after he tweeted a picture with his co-star Jenni Pulos' face obscured. The two are no longer on speaking terms, following a blow-out argument while filming the latest series of the show. Seemingly prepared for the end of his main income stream, L...

Heidi Klum  is opening up about the reasoning behind her departure from  Project Runway . “I felt it was time to leave,” Klum, 45, told PEOPLE while promoting her partnership with Perfectil USA, the U.K.’s top hair, skin and nails vitamin. “The show got moved from Lifetime, and I loved them. These people have worked super hard for many years. I thought with the network switch, I thought maybe it is time, maybe it is a sign to move on and let  Project Runway  walk by itself.” Last month, Klum and  Tim Gunn  — who have co-hosted the reality fashion design competition series since 2004 —  announced that they were leaving  after 16 seasons. “After 16 incredible seasons, I am saying ‘Auf Wiedersehen’ to  Project Runway , a show that I was honored to host and help create,” Klum said in a statement. “I am incredibly proud of the show, and it will always have a special place in my heart. I am so appreciative of the dedicated fans, and...
