Entertainment Icon Dolly Parton Performs On "Dancing with the Stars the Results Show," Wednesday, September 26
In a "Dancing with the Stars" first, twelve celebrities attempt to outshine one another on a fifth season of the hit series, beginning MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 (8:00-9:30 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. This marks the largest and most diverse cast assembled to date which includes an Emmy Award-winning actress, a Vegas icon, an Indy 500 champion, a Spice Girl, a daytime drama star, a Cheetah Girl and a former resident of "90210." As an added twist, viewers get a chance to size up the female vs. the male stars as each gender hits the dance floor on separate nights during the first week of competition.

So, our good friend Mark, who makes sure “RealityWanted” stays afloat and in tip-top shape suggested I title each blog prior to writing my thoughts about this season’s show. My first idea: “The Weight is Over.” But, in the last half-hour of BL4’s season premiere I had to change it!
Are you kidding me? 31-pounds lost in one week! This 61-year-old grandfather has proven a fierce competitor making Biggest Loser history twice, in seven days. He is the oldest person to ever compete on the show AND lost the most weight of any contestant EVER in the first week. Rock on Jerry! Not only that, the supped-up senior was first to push his 297 pound body across the hot desert to reach Bob Harper (Blue Team Trainer and my personal hero!) and became captain of the Blue Team (more on that later). I’m not a betting girl, but if I were, my money right now would be on the Silver Fox taking home the cool $250,000 grand prize for a comfy, cozy retirement!

After marching a total of 575 miles, six contestants walked across the finish line in our nation's capital, Washington, DC, where the group was reunited with family, friends and former Fat Marchers who were eager to see their miraculous transformation. Viewers watched as each of the remaining six participants won $40,000 each in prize money for a total of $240,000 during the season finale of the series, which aired Monday, September 10.

This morning, I had a wonderful opportunity to interview Bob Harper from NBC's The Biggest Loser. I don't generally get star- struck, but it was such an honor to be able to speak with this man who has inspired so many people (including myself) to lose weight and take back their health.

I had a busy weekend talking with both Kail and then Nick from Big Brother 8. Nick caught us up on what he is up to, his relocation to California, who he thinks will win and thoughts on Danielle. Come back later this week to read my interview with Carol and Mike.
Q. Mark RealityWanted.com: Whats up man, great to talk with you again. So, I have to assume life has been a bit crazy for you since you have been back. What have you been up to?
A. Nick Starcevic Big Brother 8: It's been great man. I have been back for about a month now and its all been fast paced. I have been to Alaska, then NY for the "Power of 10" and next week I'm off to LA for the Big Brother 8 finale.
