According to a press release distributed by Blue Flame, the marketing division of Bad Boy, StarMaker is set to premiere on August 16 at 10 PM ET, following "America's Best Dance Crew." This comes after numerous push backs. The season will be 10 episodes long and will feature a team of "industry tastemakers and poker players hand-selected by Diddy to teach, test, coach, and ultimately create the world's next global music superstar."

As previously reported, that team will feature super-producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and singer/actress Kimberly Caldwell.

It will also include former Billboard Executive Editor Tamara Conniff, accomplished choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson and artist manager Johnny Wright. See the full press release below.

According to MTV's TV schedule, StarMaker will not premier on May 28, as previously reported.

Originally, the show was slated for January and was given a January 26 premiere date. It was then pushed back to February. Finally, the May 28 date was announced.

It is unclear what the status of the program is at this point, but I'll report back with any updates.

EURweb.com reports that "I Want to Work for Diddy 2," a second season of Diddy's VH1 reality show, has been green lighted by the network. Casting is now open at workforpdiddy.com.

It is set to tape this summer with a fall 2009 premiere. This season should be heavily "Last Train to Paris" flavored, as that will no doubt be a priority for Diddy this summer.

On tonight's finale of the second part of season three of Making the Band 4, Aubrey O'Day, Dawn Richard, Shannon Bex and D. Woods all appeared together, on stage. Aundrea was not present and no reason was given for her absence.

It went pretty much as one might expect. Shannon explained that she left the group due to personal reasons. D. Woods was asked, by Sway, why the group broke up and she gave sort of a long winded explanation that amounted to it being different factors. Though, it felt as though she was placing most of the blame with people on the business end, saying that the problem began on the day they were put together because certain professional things were not in place and then because those things were not in place, the personal issues arose.

Aubrey sounded pretty similar to how she sounded on last year's season three, part one finale. She said that Making the Band 4 taught them how to fight, Puff is a great man, you have to fight for happiness and that includes forgiveness and she forgives Que. After a commercial break, though, the girls started to fight some.

Sway asked about the group breaking up and saying that he felt that no one was taking accountability. Dawn agreed, but D. Woods said that the group as the "dream team," but said that they didn't have a coach. Why mess it up, Sway asks. We didn't, D. Woods says. Dawn says that they had different agendas and D. Woods says that everyone had a part. Shannon said that if they had an answer, they would have answer it and fixed it.
