No bull: CMT taps
Garrett, Baldwin, Ice
By Kimberly Nordyke
May 30, 2007
Rapper-musician
Vanilla Ice (aka Rob Van Winkle), actor Stephen Baldwin and
actor-musician Leif Garrett are among the celebrities set to
take part in CMT's upcoming series "Ty Murray's Celebrity
Bull Riding Challenge," set to debut at 9 p.m. Aug. 10.
The six-part unscripted show -- in the vein of sister
network VH1's "The Surreal Life," albeit with a much
different setting -- features rodeo athlete Ty Murray, a
seven-time All-Around World Champion, trying to teach nine
celebrities the dangerous sport of bull riding.
Other celebrities taking part will be former NFL player
Rocket (Raghib) Ismail, Moto-X rider Kenny Bartrum, actor
"Nitro" Dan Clark ("American Gladiator"), reality star Jonny
(Dalton) Fairplay ("Survivor"), UFC fighter Josh Haynes and
actor Francesco Quinn.
" 'Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge' might be the
most loud, over-the-top series we've ever done on CMT," said
Bob Kusbit, the network's head of development. "Ty Murray is
the brightest star there is in bull riding, a true world
champion, but he's got his work cut out for him training a
cast of celebrities who are certainly brave -- but way out
of their element. It's definitely the most dangerous
celebrity competition on television."
The celebrities will be tested physically and mentally for
10 days with daily tutorials where they will be taught how
to mount the bull in the chute, take a fall, focus their
concentration and survive an intense eight seconds on a
bull. As their days on the ranch progress, the challenges
become more intense, and those who last will compete at a
Professional Bull Riders event in Nashville. The show also
will feature the cast rivalries and squabbles that arise
throughout the training.
"Teaching anyone to ride a bull in 10 days is a challenge,
so I hope these celebrities are in good shape and ready to
get roughed up cowboy style," said Murray, who will get help
from Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame member Cody Lambert and other
guest bull riders.
The series, which is shooting in Texas, is produced by Scott
Messick at Mess Media. Kusbit and Melanie Moreau executive
produce for the network.
