Twelve celebrities are going to Summer school on Fox this July for a competition show that is unlike anything we have seen on US television.
Nation’s Dumbest, a proven format across multiple international territories, channels celebrities’ inner school spirit as they head back to summer school, facing a mix of brain-teasing tasks, fast-paced physical challenges, and long-buried classroom knowledge. Each week, the ‘smartest’ celebrity graduates, narrowing the field until a high-stakes final exam determines who will be left standing with the distinction no one wants – the title of The Nation’s Dumbest.
Enrolled in this season’s all-star class are television personality Hilaria Baldwin, actress and model Carmen Electra, actor Anthony Michael Hall, actor Jon Heder, musician and actor Chase Hudson, rapper and actor Ice-T, singer-songwriter Elle King, former NFL quarterback Matt Leinart, television personality Dr. Drew Pinsky, stunt performer and comedian Steve-O, singer and performer JoJo Siwa, and entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Andrew Yang.
“I can confidently say we have the absolute dumbest television format in the world – and for once, that’s by design, said Ryan O’Dowd, President of Unscripted, BBC Studios. “Nation’s Dumbest celebrates humor, humility, and the universal experience of not always getting it right. With Jack Whitehall leading the chaos and a cast fully in on the joke, it’s a bold, irreverent series packed with big laughs and real surprises.”
Class is in session on July 15th. Be there, or be square.
Before Josh Peck was doing sketch comedies, like The Amanda Show, he was doing standup on The Rosie O’Donnell Show. How precious was the 10-year-old in that 1996 episode? So precious that, after watching this, you can see why he was in such high demand as a child actor.
Josh Peck was seen eating a KPop Demon Hunters’ HUNTR/X Happy Meal alone at the Golden Arches, doing a Billy Idol while listening to Golden in his head only.
You have to wonder where Drake Bell was when his stepbrother needed him most. No one should dance and eat at McDonald’s all by their lonesome.
Yesterday, Bonnie Tyler’s people announced that the singer was in a Portuguese hospital after undergoing an emergency intestinal surgery. They added that the surgery went well and she is recuperating.
Today, her people told Page Six in a statement, “Bonnie has been put into an induced coma by her Doctors to aid her recovery. We know that you all wish her well and ask for privacy at this difficult time, please.”
Hopefully, the Total Eclipse of the Heart singer will be better soon.
