Reality Bites: ‘Kell on Earth’ is educational, after a fashion, plus ‘Idol’ and ‘The Bachelor’

“Kell On Earth” (Bravo) With Fashion Week almost upon us again, we can use a lot of what we learned in the premiere of Kelly Cutrone’s Bravo reality series, “Kell on Earth,” to navigate the taffeta and pointy elbows of Bryant Park.
Lesson one! “If you’re in rows one, two or three, you’re in the game,” says Cutrone. Anywhere else, and you’re not even worth the cost of the embossed invitation. Lesson two! If you’re a designer and you want 100 people to sit in your front row, you have to hold your show in a space that fits 100 front-row seats. Otherwise, it’s a mathematical nightmare. And lesson three! “Half the people in the front row are sleeping with people for money,” Cutrone says. “Sometimes, they’re just called wives.” Or hookers.
NOW THAT’S GOOD TV: I know she’s really good at the fashiony stuff, but I think Cutrone sneakily wants to be a matchmaker.
On “The Hills” and “The City,” she was always doling out love advice or offering up hot male models to LC and Whitney. Now she’s “actively looking for a sexual partner” for her new assistant, Andrew? I’m sensing “Kell on Earth”/”Millionaire Matchmaker” crossover magic!
