Sizemore, Clay next for TV reality series

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 4 (UPI) -- Hollywood actor Tom Sizemore and comedian Andrew Dice Clay are next in line for their own "celebreality" shows on cable TV's VH1 network.

The star of "Saving Private Ryan" and comedian known for adult-themed nursery rhymes follow in the footsteps of wrestler Hulk Hogan, rapper Flavor Flav and former child actors Danny Bonaduce and Christopher Knight.

Daily Variety noted the so-called "celebreality" programming helped put the shine back on some fading stars and brought new viewers to VH1, which began primarily as a music video channel.

Flavor Flav's "Flavor of Love" recently broke VH1's ratings record by drawing in over 6 million viewers to its season finale. The show is now in its second season with the rapper still seeking a potential bride.
