A few months ago, Fox announced that they were bringing The Real Full Monty to the States to raise money for a good cause.
And now we know who will be taking it all off to raise awareness for prostate, testicular, and colorectal cancer testing and research.
Anthony Anderson is going to be dancing barefoot and bare everywhere else with Taye Diggs, Chris Jones, Tyler Posey, Bruno Tonioli, and James Van Der Beek.
“Don’t die of embarrassment. Get checked! That’s the message behind The Real Full Monty special,” said Anderson. “I am honored to lead the charge of rallying these fearless men to bare it all, in order to provoke, inspire and in this case, beg you to get screened for cancer. That’s our goal…so what are you waiting for!?”
During the two-hour special, Anderson will lead Diggs, Jones, Posey, Tonioli and Van Der Beek as they train and rehearse for the most revealing performance of their careers, culminating with a big strip-tease dance, choreographed by Emmy Award-winner Mandy Moore, where they will bare all in front of a live audience. Leading up to the final disrobing, the men will push their limits of comfortability, modesty and brotherhood with a series of rehearsals and experiences, both private and public, designed to build confidence and remove them far from their comfort zone and strengthen their bond as a group. Along the way, each of the celebrities will share their personal stories of how cancer has impacted their lives.
The Real Full Monty will air this Fall. I hope it is a huge sucess because I have two actor friends who want to do the show. And they would be perfect for the second season!

Seth Meyers’ wallet got some good news today. His talk show Late Night was picked up by NBC until 2028. This is bad news for his liver, which now has four more years of Day Drinking ahead of it.
“Over the last 10 years, Seth has resonated with his audience night after night with a sharp monologue and established segments such as ‘A Closer Look’ and ‘Day Drinking,’” said Katie Hockmeyer, Executive Vice President, Late Night Programming, NBCUniversal Entertainment. “We’re so happy to continue this legacy franchise with Seth at the helm and watch him continue to elevate the success of ‘Late Night.’”
I think this is a smart decision on NBC’s part because Meyers is the best late night host on television today. He is by far the best interviewer, and his monologues are watchable. I can’t wait to see what he is going to do with his renewal, but I know it will be funny.

On March 23rd, Punxsutawney Phil and his wife Punxsutawney Phylis became first-time parents to a baby boy and a baby girl.
Since then, the babies have gone nameless. But this weekend, the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club finally revealed their names.
They gathered the town on Mother’s Day and held an event like they do on Groundhog’s Day to reveal that the pups shall be known as Sunny and Shadow.
I can’t think of two better names for the offspring of the most famous groundhog in the world. Punxsutawney Phil is the one who tells us every February 2nd whether or not we will have six more freezing weeks or not. If he sees his shadow, we have six more weeks of Winter. If it is sunny, then we will have an early Spring.
