Gay celebrity Carson Kressley has
signed up for a second show on Oprah Winfrey's upcoming OWN (Oprah
Winfrey Network) network, Nikki Finke's Deadline Hollywood
reported.
At the network's January 1 launch,
Kressley will be seen co-hosting Your OWN Show: Oprah's Search for
the Next TV Star.
In March, the former Queer Eye for
the Straight Guy “fashion savant” will return to his makeover
roots with a similarly themed show, Carson-Nation.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
creator and executive producer Tom Forman is behind the reality show,
which will feature the ABC True Beauty season 2 judge
traveling around the country “to makeover America one town at [a]
time and to make people's live better.”
Kressley will be joined at the network
by at least one additional openly gay personality, former Iron
Chef Cat Cora.
Cora is expected to helm a reality show
that will feature the celebrity chef helping families whose eating
habits have fallen prey to a busy lifestyle. Cora will help the
families balance their busy schedules with healthy eating.
