Breaking News! MC Hammer Reality TV show starts this summer!

Well breaking news for me.

Finally a reality show worth watching, MC Hammer (whose real name is Stanley Burrell) Will star in a new reality TV show called "Hammertime" as he lives with his wife of 23 years and seven children in a modest Oakland, CA house.

During the 11 episode season, viewers will see Hammer whom the network calls a "new age dad" attempting to juggle properly raise his children and completing household chores while also trying to manage his website, perform at concerts, give speaking engagements, and run his own music label.

"Each week we'll open our home to viewers to showcase the hectic pace of our lives and our eclectic family, our real life truly is drama and there is no better place than A&E for some Hammertime," said Hammer, who is also serving as one of the show's executive producers.
One word- AWESOME!

"MC Hammer is an iconic figure in American pop culture but many people only know him for his music and fashion sense, now A&E takes an unprecedented look behind his larger-than-life personality and into his life as a devoted husband, father and business entrepreneur," said Robert Sharenow, A&E's senior vice president of nonfiction and alternative programming. "Hammertime truly captures the intimate, funny and genuine moments that resonate with our viewers and underscore the essence of our brand."

I was wondering when something like this would finally hit the open networks. I have been following his "comeback tour" with Vanilla Ice as the travelled the United States Kick'n it Oldskool.

Hammer has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide and is a three-time Grammy award winner. However, after making it big in the early 1990's he became better known for his financial woes when he had to declare bankruptcy after blowing his earnings on a lavish lifestyle.

Hammertime time won't be Hammer's first reality TV exposure. In 2003, he participated in the first season on The Surreal Life on The CW.

So there you have it, MC Hammer is back and you can catch him this summer on A&E
