"The breadth of this slate of music-based series illustrates, once again, that VH1 is the only place for adults to go to see the kinds of music and storytelling that speaks only to them," explained Graden. "This slate features all kinds of characters -- Irv Gotti, Cisco Adler, Jeff Timmons, Queen Latifah - we love that they all have a place at VH1."

"Just as we gave Hulk and his family a home with 'Celebreality,' we wanted to create a new branded block for all the crazy rockers and rappers that we love so well," commented Tom Calderone, Executive Vice President and General Manager. "'VH1's Wild Life,' -- it's a home for the 'raging!'"

Man Band
For half a decade Boy Bands ruled the airwaves, maintaining a strange hold on their bustling, female audience and just as quickly they faded from the spotlight. Now, all grown up, VH1 has decided to bring members of these teenage heartthrobs together in the new reality series "Man Band." Living together under one roof, five boy band legends including Bryan Abrams (Color Me Badd), Rich Cronin (LFO), Chris Kirkpatrick ('N Sync) and Jeff Timmons (98 Degrees) will be challenged to create new music, a dynamic stage show and then perform as a new pop group - all of which begs the question "Can lightening strike twice?"

Untitled Whitestarr Project
This comedic romp follows privileged Malibu rocker and Mischa Barton's boyfriend, Cisco Adler and his band Whitestarr as they balance gigs, groupies and girlfriends in their last shot at rock and roll immortality.

They've learned that future rock gods look better in tight pants, especially if they're womens' and that there's no shame in hiring a chubby lawyer to be your dancer. They're connoisseurs of everything Sex, Drugs and Rock n' Roll. The only lesson they haven't learned is how to sell a record. Now, these unlikely rock heroes are allowing cameras to follow their path to rock stardom. Viewers will get an insider's look at the backstage drama as these four rockers (and one dancer) fight their way to the top of the charts, or at least sell their first record.
