Shayne Lamas
News

Who wouldn't wanna follow around the life of a woman that was once engaged to Bachelor Matt Grant?!?

That's what E! is thinking, as it's officially announced the premiere date for Leave it to Lamas, a series that will focus on Shayne Lamas.

The program will kick off on Sunday, October 11, immediately after The Girls Next Door, which will feature Hugh Hefner's new girlfriends, Crystal Harris and the Shannon Twins.

Also featured on this family series, which E! clearly hopes will repeat the success of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, will be:

• Shayne's father Lorenzo Lamas, a former TV star that served as a judge on ABC's short-lived 2003 Are You Hot?;
• Shayne's brother A.J., who dated Lindsay Lohan;
• Shayne's sister Dakota.

Yet another E! Network reality series to focus on an unconventional showbiz clan is in the works with The Lamas Family, premiering this fall.

Its working title of The Poor Man's Keeping Up with the Kardashians was reportedly scrapped at the last minute. Just kidding. Kind of.

Produced by Mike Fleiss, of ABC’s The Bachelor fame, and Warner Horizon TV, the show will follow one of The Bachelor's former stars.

That, of course, would be aspiring actress Shayne Lamas, as she plunges back into the L.A. dating pool. Mucho skankiness will follow.

Shayne was engaged to Matt Grant for a few hours after winning the long-running series' 12th season. Hey, they beat Jason Mesnick and Melissa Rycroft.

Her dad, actor Lorenzo Lamas, is expected to be on the show, which we are sort of excited to see, if only for the inevitable Shayne Lamas sex tape.

Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss is giving Shayne Lamas and her "good-looking" family the Kim Kardashian treatment - reality TV show style.

"Not that the Kardashians aren't good looking, but the Lamas family is a very good looking family," Fleiss told Reality TV World.

"You see Shayne, her sister Dakota and [their brother] A.J. and obviously [her father] Lorenzo is there anchoring it with his rugged handsomeness.  They're wild, crazy characters, but they're also very good looking."

Fleiss provided details about the E! reality series starring The Bachelor: London Calling winner and her family and friends, which was announced as being in development when The Bachelor exec inked an exclusive deal with Warner Bros.

"It's very strong. [E! programming executive] Lisa Berger is very happy with it," Fleiss said. "We think it has a chance to be a real hit for them."

Fleiss said the series hasn't officially been ordered by E! but added "it looks very good. We just shot the pilot and we're about to go back into production."

Shayne Lamas received the final rose and a marriage proposal - both of which she accepted - from The Bachelor star Matt Grant on the season finale last May.

Despite insisting they were in love, the couple eventually called off their engagement in July after a report surfaced that she had traveled to Las Vegas and cheated on him with media mogul Justin Wenerger.

Shayne Lamas subsequently denied she cheated on Matt Grant and instead claimed that although the couple hadn't announced it at the time, their relationship was already over before her trip to Sin City.

In addition, Shayne attributed Grant's inability to handle her hard-partying Hollywood lifestyle as the reason why the couple spilt.

Their engagement has ended, but former Bachelor fiancée Shayne Lamas says she totally plans on keeping the engagement ring she scored.

In the first interview since announcing her split from The Bachelor star Matt Grant, Lamas says “I have it and will keep it forever for the rest of my life. It’s safe and clean and in a glass box like a glass slipper.”

Fans of The Bachelor watched Grant get down on one knee and present the ring to Shayne Lamas, who won the final rose on the show's 12th season.

But a month after the episode aired, the two were no longer living together, making the series 0-for-12 in terms of marriages produced.

Shayne Lamas denies two-timing Matt, which she's been accused of.

“I did not cheat on Matt Grant,” insists Lamas. “I would never, ever cheat on Matt. He was my fiancé.”

The break-up came on the heels of reports that Lamas was spotted in Vegas with Justin Weneger. But Lamas says they'd already split.

Yet another Bachelor heartbreak. Hopefully DeAnna Pappas and Jesse Csincsak actually make it to the altar. We have faith in our girl D.

The love affair between British bachelor Matt Grant and his painful fiance, Shayne Llamas, has officially ended. It's shocking, we know.

Just two days after the New York Post reported that the whiny nympho was two-timing The Bachelor star with Las Vegas media mogul Justin Weneger, Lamas talked to Matt Grant and called it off - over the phone!

With Matt Grant getting dumped, The Bachelor stars are now 0-for-12!

Spies said the aspiring actress is planning a trip to see Weneger in Vegas again soon. Matt Grant, who moved from London to LA to be near his sweetie, is said to be devastated. Maybe next time he'll pick brains over beauty.

Bet Chelsea is looking pretty good right about now.

Once again, it looks like The Bachelor picked the wrong woman.

Last season's star, London native Matt Grant, actually picked Lorenzo Lamas' blond, ditzy daughter Shayne Lamas as his bride to be.

After Grant moved to L.A. to be near his honey, Lamas, a wannabe actress, set up photo shoots for paparazzi on a California beach.

Matt Grant? Far from pleased.

That's the least of his concerns, however.

First he moved out of her place.

Then, last Tuesday, Shayne Lamas hooked up with Las Vegas media magnate Justin Weneger at Blush in the Wynn. There were no photos of them but New York Post got the scoop anyway.

"Matt has no idea," said a source. "She hasn't dumped him yet."

At least when the hammer drops, Matt Grant and his BFF / fellow Bachelor has-been Andy Baldwin can get together and commiserate.

So far, no Bachelor couple has actually wed (Bachelorette star Trista Sutter did, however). But the show's latest lovers are determined to be first.

There is no wedding date set and he recently moved out of her place, but a source close to Shayne Lamas and Matt Grant say they are on track for a wedding. Will they make it to the altar soon? Ever? What do you think?

Will Shayne Lamas and Matt Grant break The Bachelor curse?

The Bachelor star Matt Grant is no longer living with fiancée Shayne Lamas, though the British hunk insists that all is well with the two.

The couple have co-habitated at Shayne Lamas' Century City, Calif., place since The Bachelor Season 12 ended with the two getting engaged.

But Matt Grant moved because the two "need space to grow."

"I had to get my own life out here (in L.A.)... Get my career and friends and have my own circle. That's important in a relationship. That you are not entirely on top of someone."

The couple has been dogged by rumors of discord since their TV engagement, however, Matt Grant says that they are doing well overall.

This will give him more time for guys' nights out with Andy Baldwin, too, so really, everybody wins.

The recent star of The Bachelor, Matt Grant, steps out with his fiancee, Shayne Lamas, at Bar 1200 in Hollywood on Friday.

This past Monday's season finale of The Bachelor: London Calling had Matt Grant, 27, choose Shayne Lamas over Chelsea Wanstrath.

Good choice? You tell us. Here's Matt and Shayne ...
