    • Celebrity Circus Coming to NBCThe producers of Deal or No Deal, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Big Brother and Fear Factor will be bringing the circus into our living rooms beginning on June 11 at 9:30 p.m. (ET). Celebrity Circus is sure to have us on the edge of our seats as we watch six celebrities perform death-defying stunts in front of a live studio audience! Best of all, we get to vote on the best act and determine who stays and who goes.

      Antonio Sabato Jr. from General Hospital and Melrose Place; Grammy-nominated R&B soul singer Blu Cantrell; Christopher Knight, known as Peter Brady from The Brady Bunch; Olympic athlete Janet Evans; supermodel and actress Rachel Hunter; and Jackass star Jason “Wee Man” Acuna will be the six celebrities who will perform the death-defying stunts. All six of them, of course, will be trained by professionals, and like American Idol, they’ll be judged by a panel of professional circus entertainers.

      “When people are switching around their TV channels, they’re going to stick to this like flypaper. It’s going to be a very fresh perspective on a performance show,” Craig Pletis told Variety.

      Although Celebrity Circus is similar to Dancing With the Stars, Craig told Variety that Celebrity Circus will be “bigger, bolder and more death-defying. You can break a nail doing that show. You can break a leg on ours.”

      According to the press release, former Emmy Red Carpet host Joey Fatone will be the host of Celebrity Circus.

      Tune in to NBC on Wednesday, June 11 at 9:30 p.m. (ET) for 90 minutes of high flying, real circus acts! You won’t want to miss it, especially if you’re like me and enjoy watching circus acts.
