Blvd. of Broken Dreams Not Mean Enough for NYT; Too Mean For Niki Taylor
Virginia Heffernan of the NY Times reviews E!’s new spin-off from True Hollywood Story, Blvd. of Broken Dreams and compares it unfavorably to VH1’s Behind the Music. The show’s just not mean enough. However, Niki Taylor has slapped the network with a federal slander suit, alleging emotional distress. The suit, which also includes fraud, breach of contract and invasion of privacy, said that
E! falsely claimed that the show would focus on Taylor’s current life and professional endeavors, including her signature fragrance, clothing line, upcoming cosmetics line and charitable foundation
Instead (surprise, surprise) the network and its producer focused on Taylor’s past hardships and characterized her as a celebrity
who risked everything … and lost.
