Back in the late ’90s, Miss Cleo and her commercials for her Psychic Readers Network were all over our televisions. Until, it was exposed that she was a fake. And then, she was no longer on our TVs.
But on August 10th, Lifetime will tell her story in Miss Cleo: Her Rise and Fall.
Known for her work during the late 1990’s and early 2000’s with the Psychic Readers Network, this professional telephone and television psychic Youree Dell Harris (Allen) was launched into the pop culture zeitgeist when the network’s infomercials took off, making her a cult icon as the TV persona Miss Cleo. Fondly remembered for donning a colorful turban in a candlelit room, Miss Cleo dutifully listened to callers detailing the most intimate details of their lives. Miss Cleo ultimately became the face of the Psychic Readers Network, earning the trust and loyalty for those that called her. Years later, Harris’ world was turned upside down with complaints that the Psychic Readers Network was fraudulent and spread false advertising. Facing angry fans, Harris was forced to defend her reputation to clear her name and escape financial devastation.
I don’t know about you, but I forgot about the late Miss Cleo until this biopic. And now I can’t wait to watch it.

We know what the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Real Housewives of Atlanta are going to be doing on March 9th. They are going to tune in to watch their ex-friends Denise Richards and NeNe Leakes get hunted down on an island in Lifetime’s Hunting Housewives.
In Hunting Housewives, four friends Karla Dodds (Richards), Rebel Carron-Whitman (Leakes), Joli Symons (Kym Johnson Herjavec), and Sharell Bouvier (Melyssa Ford) head for a much-needed spa retreat weekend away from their husbands, children and busy schedules when suddenly they find themselves downed in a plane crash. With no knowledge of basic survival, the housewives must use their wits and whatever is in their designer bags to try to survive in the rugged wilds. When they realize they are not alone, even frenemies must align to outwit their hunters.
Will you be watching, or will you be watching repeats of Real Housewives instead?
Wendy Williams had a popular daytime talk show for twelve years, and then her health got the better of her. So much so that she took a season off, and her show was cancelled at the end of that season in June 2022.
Since then, she has very rarely seen.
However, that doesn’t mean the camera stopped rolling. Her family has been recording a documentary about her conservatorship, and it will air on Lifetime later this month.
Over the course of nearly two years, cameras chronicled the former television host and radio star Wendy Williams’ on the next phase of her life, following the end of her iconic talk show. The documentary provides a raw, honest and unfiltered reality of Wendy’s life after she was placed under financial guardianship, shedding light on the vulnerabilities that has turned Wendy into the Hot Topic herself. Suffering mental and physical issues, Wendy’s delicate state of mind, erratic behavior and declining health were all captured by the cameras. Where is Wendy Williams? is the story of Wendy’s journey to resurrect her career, and what filmmakers discovered along the way. But many questions remain – who truly has Wendy’s best interest at heart? Is she healthy now? And Where is Wendy Williams?
Where Is Wendy Williams will air on February 24th and February 25th.
Lifetime shared a video of Theresa Caputo before hair and makeup worked their magic on her. And I never would have recognized her.
Doesn’t the psychic medium look like a completely different person with the flat hair? Either way, the 56-year-old is beautiful, even without her hair-raising hair.
