    DEBUT: This reality series--The Bachelorette with a twist--will definitely spice up chats around the water cooler. The premise: one gorgeous single woman is introduced to 14 desirable bachelors. But not all the men are out to win 24-year-old, college student Jackie's heart. Some are in it only for the money. Here's the twist: some of the hopefuls are heterosexual, some are gay, and Jackie doesn't know who is which. If Jackie's last man standing is heterosexual, the couple split the $1 million prize. If a gay man captures her heart, he gets all the cash. Daphne Brogdon (The X Show) hosts.
