"Rock Star: INXS-Competition" #107
After choosing names from a hat, two rockers get the chance to perform
original compositions, and to the disappointment of some and relief of
others, Deanna and Mig are the lucky two. Despite Suzie's frustration
over not singing her own composition, she does a great job tonight on
"Start Me Up." Later, Ty -- who helped Deanna write her song -- has
another slam dunk performance on "Proud Mary," while Jordis
uncharacteristically struggles with the high notes in Aerosmith's "Dream
On."
(Premieres at 7:00 p.m.)

"Celebrity Fit Club" *BRAND NEW EPISODE*
While training with WNBA star Tamika Whitmore from the LA Sparks, the
teams have a fit camp shoot-off as a crowd of basketball fans cheers them
on. Back in the weigh-in ceremony, Toccara and Jani both share emotional
visits to their hometowns in Ohio, and Phil takes us home to meet his new
granddaughter and give his new leaner body a workout in a race against
son Bam. With the final weigh-in just a week away, the celebs bring in
big weight losses as they kick into high gear to drop the pounds and win
the grand prize for their team.

"THE FABULOUS LIFE OF CELEBRITY WIVES"
The only people who live better than celebrities are the celebrities'
better halves, but being a fabulous first lady isn't easy or cheap. It
takes an extraordinary woman to land and keep a superstar stud, and each
of these women has a fantastic story to match her fabulous life. So, tell
your nanny to watch the kids, have the butler to hold your calls and let
VH1 show you what it's really like to be one of the world's hottest
celebrity wives.
