E! Announces New Series Orders

PASADENA, July 12: At the Television Critics Association
press tour, E! Networks announced several new titles for the E! and Style
networks, including a claymation series about Hollywood and a venture with pop
star Beyoncé Knowles.

The programming and marketing partnership between Style
Network, Beyoncé and her mother and partner, Tina Knowles, will feature
programming throughout the third and fourth quarter of 2006 about Beyoncé's
clothing line, House of Deréon. This will include Uncut: House Of Deréon
Featuring Beyoncé & Tina Knowles,
a one-hour behind the scenes look at the singer as she
prepares to release her new CD and launch her clothing line; House Of
Deréon Runway Special
,
a 30-minute special with fashion show footage; and Everyday Runway
with Beyoncé and Tina Knowles
.

Salaam Coleman Smith, executive VP of the Style Network,
noted, "Beyoncé is one of the hottest music and fashion icons in the
industry and is an inspiration to young women all over the world. Her fashion
line is rooted in family history and trend-setting style. We are thrilled to
partner with Beyoncé, Tina, and House of Deréon to tell their inspiring story,
share House of Deréon's creative styles, and continue Style Network's aim to
make fashion accessible and relatable for everyday women."

Also for Style is Style Her Famous, which launches September 4.
Hosted by America’s Next Top Model’s Jay Manuel, the series will help a young woman discover and define her personal style by
incorporating tips and ideas inspired by the look an A-List celebrity she
admires. "This series will combine all the elements of style that our
viewers appreciate and embrace," said Coleman Smith. "Part self-help
makeover show, part celebrity style analysis and part girlfriend-bonding
experience, viewers can revel in our fan’s metamorphosis while gleaning great
style, fashion, hair and makeup tips for themselves from our Hollywood Glam
Squad."

Coming to Style in October,
meanwhile, is Split Ends, which asks
the question: What happens when an elite Hollywood stylist-to-the-stars swaps
professional lives with a small town, cut-n-curl hairdresser?

E! Networks, meanwhile, has
ordered the claymation series Starveillance from the creator of Celebrity Deathmatch. The series promises “clever reenactments of real or
possible events as they may have happened, including marriage proposals,
intimate bedroom arguments, off-camera antics and more.” Lisa Berger, senior VP
of programming development at E! Networks, commented, "Eric's take on
celebrity life brings a distinct new comic sensibility to our viewers, and this
is one show we think everyone will be talking about.”

The show launches on E! in January
2007 and will also be shown on The Vine @ E! Online and multiple other new media
platforms.
