In this week’s totally non-essential news, singer Cee Lo Green has signed a deal for a
six-episode reality series for TBS, to
be called The Cee Lo Life (Or as I think the show should be called, Living a 4 Foot 5 Life in a Six Foot World,
but that’s me).
The show will chronicle his life along with his Goodie Mob group mates – Big Gipp, Khujo and T-Mo – as they work on their new long-awaited hip-hop album.
According to Michael Wright, who is the head of head of
programming for TBS: “With his distinctive voice, winning personality and remarkable ability
to tap into a wide range of musical styles, Cee Lo Green has risen to the top
of the music industry… (and his new series) will give viewers the chance to get to know who he is – without a doubt, one of the hardest working men in show business. The
Cee Lo Life is certain to be a smart, fun and funny journey packed with a lot
of great music.”
O.K. if you say so.
The show is set to premiere sometime
in 2014.
By the way, for my own education, just how did he get the name Cee Lo?
