NBC to Reboot LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND FAMOUS With Nick Cannon

NBC's LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND FAMOUS, which originally aired in the '80s and '90s with host Robin Leach going behind-the-scenes with wealthy entertainers and business moguls, is heading back to television.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, AMERICA'S GOT TALENT's Nick Cannon will play host. Style network originally revived the series with Cannon over a year ago before changing over to the Esquire Network and dropping the show.

NBC's take "will focus heavily on Cannon's point of view and include fun profiles on ultra-wealthy individuals with vibrant personalities, hobbies and tastes."

The host will also delve into the wealthy guests' charitable causes.

Cannon's most recent project is the TV movie sequel DRUMLINE: A NEW BEAT. Aside from his AMERICA'S GOT TALENT hosting duties, he has also appeared on TV in 30 ROCK and UP ALL NIGHT.
