Tom Sandoval is channeling his “ultra aggression” with each new challenge on Fox’s “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.”
In an exclusive clip shared with TheWrap of Monday’s episode, the “Vanderpump Rules” star is called up solo by the show’s Directing Staff for a gritty fighting exercise.
“I need you to find ultra aggression,” the D.S. told Sandoval in the clip, which you can watch above. “Anything in red is fair game, apart from no head shots. Is that understood?”
“Yes, staff,” Sandoval replied, with zero clue of what’s about to come next.
As the D.S. opens the gates, the reality star gets a running head start at his opponent, who is covered in red padded gear, and begins taking hits at the instruction of the D.S.
“I’m here to push myself — mentally, physically, emotionally — to the limits,” Sandoval said in an interview. “You know,...

“Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test” is back for its sophomore season with an enticing slate of celebrities — including Tom Sandoval, Blac Chyna, JoJo Siwa and Tyler Cameron to name a few — all of whom had distinct reasons for coming on the Fox reality competition show.
“Everyone has a different motivation — Tom Sandoval wanted to be punished in a way and also prove himself — a bit of a public punishment — for what had happened,” EP Sophie Leonard told TheWrap, referencing the “Vanderpump Rules” star’s cheating scandal. “You’ve also got people who are quite controversial characters, like Blac Chyna. [She] wanted to show the public who she really is … there’s two different sides to her.”
Many contestants who signed up for treacherous 10-day challenge had “something to prove,” according to Leonard, pointing to Jack Osbourne, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2012. For others, putting themselves through the brutal tasks...

After a cheating scandal involving “Vanderpump Rules” stars Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss lit the internet aflame, Sandoval wanted a “public punishment” to make amends for his infidelity to then-girlfriend Ariana Madix on “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.”
“Tom Sandoval wanted to be punished in a way, and also prove himself — a bit of a public punishment for what had happened,” “Special Forces” EP Sophie Leonard told TheWrap ahead of the show’s release.
Just as the controversy — dubbed #scandoval by “Vanderpump Rules” fans — went viral in March, Leonard’s team was casting for the second installment of the Fox reality show, which challenges celebrities across sports and entertainment to undergo a slew of brutal tasks in brisk mountains of New Zealand.

Tom Sandoval was looking to do some painful penance after the whole #Scandoval hullabaloo, the Vanderpump Rules vet shares in an extended trailer for Season 2 of Fox’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that Sandoval and Season 5 addition Raquel Leviss were having an affair — a bombshell that was dropped on Ariana when she found a suggestive video of Raquel on her longtime beau’s phone.

After buying the Los Angeles Lakers, Dr. Jerry Buss made it his goal to turn them into Hollywood’s team, all based around a philosophy known to every basketball fan as “Showtime.” Antoine Fuqua’s new Hulu docuseries “Legacy” explores how Buss accomplished that goal and in doing so brought another part of Hollywood to the NBA: endless gossip.

Haim Saban is an Israeli-American media proprietor, investor, philanthropist, musician, and producer of records, film & television. As the 232nd richest person in America this businessman is estimated a net worth of $3 billion with interests in entertainment, media, and finances. He reminds me of Iron Man. The opening scene of the movie, of a hero among many who can do just about anything with his fame, money, and power.

But there was a time when the two found themselves to be the youngest people in the room at a hot Hollywood party, and thus, they became fast friends sent out to retrieve beer, naturally.

He’s been having a blast as a brand new dad, but Kanye West likely didn’t enjoy his trip to see the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game on Wednesday evening (August 14).
Joined by Rob Kardashian, the “Jesus Walks” rapper ended up on camera and when the crowd saw him on the big midfield screen, they all started booing.
Espn’s Arash Markazi tweeted, "Kanye West was just shown on the jumbotron at Dodger Stadium and booed,” followed by, “Kanye West just got moved to second row seats near the Mets dugout. #KanyeWatch.”
Mr. Markazi spotted several other celebrities in the stands, though none of them received the negative reaction Kanye was given. Arash wrote, "[Retired NBA player] Robert Horry is at the Dodgers game and gets a loud ovation. Sorry, Kanye,” and “Robin Thicke is at the Dodgers game too and gets a loud ovation."

Ahead, ten celebrities spotted around SXSW on Sunday (nine of which I'm positively sure of). 1. Willem Dafoe 2. Carla Gugino 3. David Carr 4. Bradley Whitford 5. Minnie Driver 6. Tom Colicchio 7.

With the 2012 Oscar ceremony taking place tonight, I’ve rounded up the 25 worst Academy Awards decisions of the past quarter century to feed filmgoers collective rage. Many of these are outright bad winners, but I’ve also reserved special spots in this countdown for blunders in production, nominations, and existing in the first place.
So take a deep breath, go watch I Saw the Devil to get in the right mood, and dig in.
25. Fifty-Nine Years of Rocky History
I did not want to imply that the Academy was all sunshine and roses before 1988; so a brief history of their ineptitude seems in order. In fact, history is a perfect lead in because, even though this is reason number twenty-five, it underlies the basic principle that caused this list to manifest. The Academy never learns from its mistakes. It never changes.
There is plenty of fodder here for several...

In what was certainly Washington, D.C.'s most rocking party since the Inauguration Balls swept through town last January, the iconic Hotel Washington officially reopened as the capital’s first W hotel last Thursday night. Guests included actress Emmy Rossum (without Adam Durtz on her arm), President Barack Obama's assistant Reggie Love, NBC bag-toting Luke Russert, retired NBA star Robert Horry, former Fox News White House correspondent Bret Baier, and six-time Grammy winner John Legend, who took the mic at one point during the night. Rossum looked adorable in a little black dress and knee-high boots, explaining that she made the trip down the coast from New York City because she wanted to hear John Legend perform. The actress, while...

Some people like mustard, others ketchup, still more barbeque sauce, the occasional fat guy might even go with mayonnaise, but I've always preferred the ruggedly tangy Swayze. Singing, dancing, beating the hell out of Roadhouse patrons, it's the condiment which does it all, pleasing the taste buds and remaining trapped between this world and the next like the Norse God of pillage-happy, tortured, yet changeable grown up Abercrombie models. Everything's just better with a little Swayze. Can you honestly name me one film worse because of his aww-shucks grin or punishing roundhouse kicks? Nope. Doesn't exist. Now, that's not to say Swayze is Midas-like, or even Tom Brady-esque; think of him more like Luis Guzman or Robert Horry. Film's marginally-talented Jack-Of-All-Trades, cobbling together a bit of brute lumberjack force with dollops of dreaminess and surfing skill to propel films which should have been little more than temporarily relevant for...

For as long as I can remember, I had trouble telling the difference between Ron Silver and Andy Garcia. Their backgrounds are completely different, but they just happen to look-alike. Early on, I also though that Ed Burns looked like Ben Affleck, Will Smith looked like basketball player Robert Horry, and Tom Cruise looked like Scott Wolf. Oh yeah, and Joaquin Phoenix now looks like the Unabomber. Now, the MyFunnyCoolPics blog put together a list of celebrities who look-alike and got the photos to prove it. Actors like Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen) and Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) are on the list, and so are Gary Busey and Nick Nolte.
