Terry Jeffords (former NFL linebacker Terry Crews) and the Nine-Nine precinct in another cop-versus-fireman football game. Owens tweeted a photo from the set on Friday.

This story first appeared in the Aug. 23 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine. When MTV veterans Jesse Ignjatovic and Evan Prager left New York in 2007 to start the production company Den of Thieves, they went full-on Hollywood -- producing such glitzy events as the VH1 Divas special and the Cmt Music Awards as well as reality shows like The T.O. Show, in addition to seven years of the Video Music Awards. While they are heading back to their roots -- and to Brooklyn's Barclays Center for the first time -- for the VMAs on Aug. 25, they'll then dive

Monique Jackson and Kita Williams have known former NFL star Terrell Owens for a long time. They've starred with him on The T.O. Show for three seasons on Vh1, and at one time were considered his closest confidants. So you can guess their surprise when they turned on the television last week and saw T.O. claiming he felt betrayed by them. They've been quiet about the situation -- until now. The public relations reps and (former) business partners of Terrell Owens are setting the record straight about their ups and downs with their famous client.
Contempt Motion Filed Against Terrell Owens
TheInsider.com: How did all this start? Terrell says you double-crossed him. Kita: He's mad at everybody. We were friends first. People forget that. We were friends for 12 years. Terrell is the only client we had where we had a friendship first. The GQ article didn't bother us (T.O. recently...

Terrell Owens has fallen on hard times. Uunable to find a job in the NFL during the 2011 season, Owens revealed in GQ's February cover-story that he's broke and alone after making nearly $80 million over the course of his football career. The flamboyant former wide receiver told the "The Wendy Williams Show" (weekdays on Fox) that he's estranged from his former best friends Kita Williams and Monique Jackson, who starred alongside him on his VH1 reality show "The T.O. Show."
Williams recounted the falling out, and Owens verified her account. "They double-crossed him ... They were shopping a reality show for the two of them and they didn't tell him about it and then he found out about it." When he confronted them about it, they claimed that they wanted to make him the executive producer, but T.O. wasn't convinced. When Williams asked if they were still friends, Owens replied, "No,...

The NFL regular season is just a couple of weeks away, and Terrell Owens is still sitting on the sidelines, rehabbing and hoping a team will pick him up. Before anyone takes a chance on him, he needs to show his left leg is completely healed after an Acl tear. Owens gave us a glimpse into that rehab process on 'The T.O. Show' (Mondays, 10Pm on VH1).
"I know that if I don't get my knee right, I'll probably never ever play football again," he said. "Nobody really knows the extent of my injury, so my mindset is just to really just go into this rehab session on day one, put my head down, full steam ahead, and just keep going forward."

When one half of his PR team sat down to talk with Terrell Owens and his ex-girlfriend Kari about why their relationship didn't work out on 'The T.O. Show' (Mon., 9:30Pm Et on VH1), Owens was surprisingly forthcoming and open.
Kita went so far as to think what happened was a genuine breakthrough for the outrageous football personality. He took ownership of is failures and immaturity in their relationship, comparing it to the immaturity he's show on the field and in other aspects of his life.
Maybe it's because he was laid up with a broken leg, but Owens was surprisingly reflective and self-aware. "You're probably more mature than I am when it comes to relationships," he admitted to Kari, who had a very warm smile at hearing his words.

Teams haven't been banging down Terrell Owens' door to sign him for the upcoming NFL season, but he will get on with his TV career when Season 3 of 'The T.O. Show' premieres Monday on VH1. Owens is rehabbing an injury he suffered last season with the Cincinnati Bengals, which he addressed, among other things, on 'Access Hollywood Live' (weekday, syndicated on NBC).
"Obviously I didn't finish the season," he said, also mentioning events in his personal life. "Two or three games left to go I had a meniscus surgery, so from there on, there's a lot of things that kind of have transpired. From friends taking money, a lot of financial situations." He declined to say how the injury happened, except to say that it "wasn't anything crazy," and says he has been working hard to rehab and still expects to play football.

Looks like Terrell Owens is a free agent no longer. The pro football bad boy is coming to TV for a little 'Necessary Roughness.'
AOL TV just learned exclusively that T.O. will be putting the pads back on and hitting the field for the finale of USA's hit new show 'Necessary Roughness' on Wed., Sept. 14, 10Pm Et.
Owens will play All-Pro safety/cornerback Kevin "The Mine-Field" Minnifield, who's the star player on the team that the show's NY Hawks go up against in the playoffs. He's also Tk's (Mehcad Brooks) lifelong rival.
That's right: It's Tk vs. To. Sounds like cause for an end zone celebration to me.

When VH1 first agreed to give football player Terrell Owens his own reality show in 2009, he was the star wide receiver for “America’s Team,” the Dallas Cowboys. But by the time the first season aired, he’d been let go by the Cowboys and signed with last-place Buffalo. Then, he spent season 2 jousting with new teammate and fellow reality-tv wannabe, Chad Ochocinco, while playing for last-place Cincinnati.
Now, for season 3 of The T.O. Show, which premieres Monday, Aug. 22, at 9:30, the 37-year-old finds himself out of football altogether — possible permanently — after an off-season knee surgery. Suddenly, The T.O. Show...

Is it possible for a woman to have brains and beauty? When the beauty is Jessica White, it seems anything is possible. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit stunner is proving, one business venture at a time, that she is more than just a pretty face.
A regular on the red carpet and on reality shows like NFL star Terrell Owens' The T.O. Show, and in talks for a show of her own, Jessica - who has seven years worth of Si Swimsuits Issue photos to brag about making her the most successful African American model to ever work with the magazine - is still steaming up the camera lens - but in between she is writing a book, launching a beauty line, expanding her charity efforts (she started the Angel Wings Foundation to help women and children) and the supermodel still found time to talk to AA about what she looks for in a guy,...

Michael Vick finds reality TV too much for his life. The NFL player has decided to cancel the second season of his Bet show "The Michael Vick Project" although the network is reportedly more than pleased to continue.
"I put a stop to that," he said as quoted by Csn Philly. "They asked me to do it. I don't have that lifestyle." The sportsman would like to concentrate on his game instead of being followed by camera most of the time.
Vick agreed to expose his life on camera following the incarceration for dog-fighting case. The series mainly focuses on him searching for personal and professional redemption while exploring his past. Ten episodes were aired starting January this year.
Vick is not the only NFL player portrayed on reality series. Fellow Eagles, Hank Baskett, takes part in his wife Kendra Wilkinson's E! series "Kendra". The Bengals stars T.O.

VH1 TV Shows | Music Videos | Celebrity Photos | News & Gossip This week’s T.O. Show 2 finds Terrell Owens and friend/publicist Kita Williams traveling together again. This time they’re down in Miami, attending the Miami Masters and cheering on Terrell’s friend Andy Roddick. Andy and Terrell used to party together, until Andy got married and settled down. Later, over dinner, Terrell says seeing Andy so happy makes him think, once again, about settling down. Many have wondered if that means settling down with his friend and constant companion, Kita. Especially since she just broke up with her boyfriend, Joe, during last week’s episode. After a night of partying in Miami (tequila shots and Serena Williams included), even Kita’s sister Bj tells her that Kita could be — and maybe should be — with Terrell. This is how Kita takes this suggestion: As you can see in the above...

VH1 has scooped up a reality pilot in which office workers battle for a $50,000 bonus.
The recession-appropriate project locks a group of pencil-pushing employees in their workplace for 72 hours. During lockdown, staffers must try to convince their co-workers to vote for them. Whoever gets the most votes wins the bonus.
The project's working title is "Office Bonus," and 3 Ball ("The Biggest Loser," "MasterChef") is set to produce; Jd Roth, Todd Nelson and Adam Greener are executive producers. If greenlighted, the show would join 3 Ball's "Dad Camp" and "The Ocd Project" on the network.
This summer, VH1 also is launching Chad Ochocinco dating show "The Ultimate Catch" and Season 2 of Terrell Owens' reality effort "The T.O. Show." Both get under way July 11.

VH1 is getting more real -- and shockingly unshocking -- with an across-the-board programming revamp that will include producing a record 44 original series this year, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Eschewing Flavor of Love and its ilk for more "authenticity" in its upcoming new reality, VH1 will bring viewers dozens of new shows such as You're Cut Off, which aims to reform spoiled party girls, and Money Hungry, in which contestants can lose up to $10,000 of their own cash if they don't cut calories. A whopping 40 percent of programming will return to the network's original focus, music, starting with brand...

Stalking DJ Pauly D, he of Jersey Shore fame, just got a whole bit easier (oh, I know ladies, stop your hysteria, I can barely hear my own sarcasm above the screams). The walking hair-don't is the first celebrity--sorry, let me rephrase that--the first "celebrity" to use geo-social network Foursquare's Celebrity Mode (that's Celebrity Mode without inverted commas) which enables you to stalk--sorry, I mean follow, your favorite fame whores.
The idea is a hook-up (note to Pauly: not one that involves bodily fluids, it's of no interest to you, get back to pumping fists, or iron, or whatever else it is you do when you're not blow-drying your "hair") between foursquare and MTV and its sista from another mista, VH1.
