TOMMY LEE: VH1 Acquires Rights To Reality Show

June 8, 2005

Mediaweek.com is reporting that VH1 has acquired rights to the six episodes of NBC's upcoming reality series "Tommy Lee Goes to College"; a spokesman for the network said the first episode will run on cable just three days after the broadcast premiere, which is scheduled for August 16, with two back-to-back episodes slated to air on NBC starting at 9 p.m. ET.

The show, which was filmed last fall, follows the tattooed drummer as he studies, auditions for the marching band and attends Cornhusker games at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Lee recently entered into an agreement with Handleman Company to have his new solo album, "Tommyland: The Ride", released on August 9 in conjunction with the reality show. Produced by Scott Humphrey, who along with Carl Stubner of Sanctuary Artist Management played an instrumental role with Handleman in constructing the new distribution concept, "Tommyland: The Ride" features guest performances by such established artists as Chad Kroeger of NICKELBACK, Carl Bell of FUEL, Deryck Whibley of SUM 41, Butch Walker, Joel Madden of GOOD CHARLOTTE, and Nick Carter of the BACKSTREET BOYS.
