Real Husbands of Hollywood

Wouldn't you know, there aren't only "Real Housewives" parading around reality television. The BET original series Real Husbands of Hollywood evens the playing field somewhat -- well, not really. The program is actually the "fakest reality show ever," says BET, a satire that skewers all things "Housewives"-like. It stars Kevin Hart, Nick Cannon, Boris Kodjoe, Duane Martin, J.B. Smoove and Nelly, among others, while episodes feature guest appearances by television, film, music and sport's top stars including Jay Leno, Ed O'Neill, Shaquille O'Neal, Faizon Love, Common, Trey Songz and Cedric the Entertainer.
