Ryan Cameron one of Atlanta’s top radio host celebrated his anniversary in a big way. The entire city of Atlanta came out to support him and show him love for his 4 year anniversary which was held at Opera  night club. I have to say that I was quite moved after hearing these young women talk about how much they loved his show.

“Everyday no matter what I am doing I have to listen to him, no matter what I am doing I still keep my radio on. He makes me feel happy when I’m down and always lets me know whats really going on in the Ryan Report.”

I have to say I love me some Chilli!! Ooooohh she makes me want to have a red light special all over my granny’s table. She  came out to show love to Ryan Cameron for his 4 year anniversary. While there she talked about her new reality show that will be coming out later this year. The show will be filmed in the ATL, where she’s out trying to find a man… I told her when ever she’s ready I’m here… Y’all know I can’t type so I went to her fan site and copied and pasted the info From Chilli-Online.com lol…

VH1 has given the green light to three new series starring pseudonymous talent. TLC’s “Chilli,” Salt n’ Pepa’s “Pepa” and “The Entertainer” from I Love NY and I Love Money will all star in new shows for the network in 2010. VH1 has also ordered a second season of Sober House with Dr. Drew and a seventh season of Celebrity Fit Club.

The Chilli Project (working title) will feature the former TLC star searching for love with the help of relationship expert Tionna Smalls. The network has ordered eight half hour episodes of the program, which is from FremantleMedia North America.

The Entertainer will use a similar format to the network’s other dating shows, bringing together a group of young bachelorettes that try to woo Frank “The Entertainer” Moresco’s heart, and help him move out of his parent’s basement. VH1 has ordered 10 one hour episodes.

 

I have to say that I was quite impressed by all of BET’s new programing.  I was given a special invitation to cover the event and got the chance to meet all of BET’s top players.  I believe,  for the last 4 years BET’s show substance and programming took a nose dive.  I just couldn’t relate at times,  to some of the shows but after seeing the new direction and the type of programing that’s on the schedule, the netowrk has won me back.  Although,  I can’t tell yall about all the shows I can tell ya that the stars you see featured here will be participating in a show. 

Monica,  Maxwell,  Mary J Blige,  Chilli,  MC Lyte,  Mario Van Peeples, and Mo’ Nique were just some of the few special guests who were in the building to talk about their new shows.  Monica will have her own reality show on the network, entitled, ‘Monica: Still Standing’ and she says it is set to air sometime in October.

Look at Mo and Chilli doing the “Stanky Leg.”   Mo ‘Nique will be getting her own late night show and a reality show that could be taped in the ATL,  so you know ya boy will be getting all the exclusive pics.  Maxwell is set to make his come back on BET later this year.    BET.com will be giving you all the details really soon.

My Girls Mary J and MC Lyte will be getting their own shows,  which will focus on uplifting young women,  and I have to say that I was really moved by  the preview.  Last, but not least I have to tell yall, that BET will be bringing back,  news programming with the focus on us,  which I’m really happy about,  cause the community really needs it.  You can see all the pictures in the gallery.

Special shoutouts to Debra Lee, Stephen Hill, Connie Orlando and Anita Baker.  Oh and Anita Baker told me tell ya’ll she is still looking for a man!
