STYLISTA or DEVIL WEARS PRADA meets TV???


Another reality show, right? Indeed, but nix VH1 and MTV because I'll be glued to the tube this Wednesday watching STYLISTA. Leave it up to the creators of ANTM and Project Runway to write the script for a micro show of Devil Wears Prada including a cast of 11 Emilys and a knock-off Miranda played by Anne Slowey and her synthetic sidekick Nigel aka Joe Zee ... in the words of the character Miranda Priestly ... "That's all."

Regardless, I'll be watching, laughing and anticipating next season. Check the trailer below.

FASHION GAME:
STYLISTA (Wednesday, October 22, 9/8 p.m. Central)

STORYBOARD: If "The Devil Wears Prada" were a reality show, it would be "Stylista." Eleven aspiring fashion enthusiasts vie for a much-coveted editorial job with Elle magazine. They work as assistants to Elle's Fashion News Director, Anne Slowey, a demanding but well-respected fashion icon. The competitors carry out an assistant task and a fashion editorial assignment in each episode.

Each week, in consultation with Elle's Creative Director, Joe Zee, Anne fires one person, until the last assistant standing gets "promoted" to the coveted real-life job opportunity. The grand prize includes a paid editorial position at Elle magazine, a paid lease on a great apartment in Manhattan, and a clothing allowance at H&M, all for one year, valued at $100,000.

"Stylista" is from 10 by 10 Entertainment, Inc. and Bankable Incorporated in association with Magic Molehill Productions, Inc. with executive producers Tyra Banks, Ken Mok, Eli Holzman, Desiree Gruber and Jane Cha.
