Sarah Jessica Parker Developed Reality Show “American Artist” Picked up by Bravo

Sarah Jessica Parker is best known for being a fashion icon thanks to her role as Carrie Fisher in Sex and the City. Apparently now she is also a reality tv show developer!
Bravo has announced that it has picked up American Artist, Sarah Jessica Parker’s new Project Runway-like reality competition series for aspiring artists. Each episode of American Artist will feature the show’s contestants competing in art-themed challenges from a range of disciplines — including sculpture, painting, photography and industrial design — and completing works of art that will be appraised by a panel of top figures in the art world, including fellow artists, gallerists, collectors, curators and critics.
American Artist’s winner will receive a gallery show, a cash prize and a sponsored national tour.
Bravo is really grasping at straws here trying to fill the ginormous shoes of Project Runway. They have also developed new series for Work Out star Jackie Warner and former Runway finalist Laura Bennett.
Jackie’s Gym Takeover, Warner’s new reality series, will use a Kitchen Nightmares-like format and feature Warner visiting struggling gym owners and using her own gym ownership and entrepreneurial experience to help the owners turn their failing businesses around.
Bennett — who finished third on Project Runway’s Summer 2006 third season — will star in Laura Bennett, the working title of a new docu-reality series that will follow the fashion designer as she juggles her career with her personal life, which includes her husband, six children (five of them boys), and a band of misbehaving family pets.
I’ll be interested to see how all of these shows do. The only one I will likely tune in for is SJP’s American Artist. Will you watch any of these new developments?
