Rapper-musician Vanilla Ice, actor Stephen Baldwin and actor-musician Leif Garrett are among the celebrities set to take part in CMT's upcoming reality series "Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge."

The six-part show -- in the vein of sister network VH1's "The Surreal Life," albeit with a much different setting -- features rodeo superstar Ty Murray trying to teach nine celebrities the dangerous sport of bull riding. It is set to debut at 9 p.m. August 10.

Other celebrities on board include former ex-NFL player Rocket (Raghib) Ismail, Moto-X rider Kenny Bartrum, actor "Nitro" Dan Clark ("American Gladiator"), reality star Jonny (Dalton) Fairplay ("Survivor"), UFC fighter Josh Haynes and actor Francesco Quinn.

The celebrities will be tested physically and mentally for 10 days with daily tutorials where they will be taught how to mount the bull in the chute, take a fall, focus their concentration and survive an intense eight seconds on a bull. As their days on the ranch progress, the challenges become more intense, and those who last will compete at a Professional Bull Riders event in Nashville. The show also will feature the cast rivalries and squabbles that arise throughout the training.

Raph's Girl note: I'll watch this just to see Vanilla Ice get gored...

It's such a good thing that our country has SO much extra money lying around that no one needs that we can make such wonderful shows as these.

note to self......stay away from downtown that day.

I seriously despise rodeo stuff. It just all seems so....cruel.

Rodeo, cockfighting, horse racing, hunting, ect; all violent sports that are cruel to animals. Makes me sick.

Just more redneck sports to gamble on, now with C-list celebrities. We're a nation of fools.

2 Days ago they announced the Bull Riding series.... 2 days...that's all it took for somebody to get injured!

I just wish it was Vanilla Ice but meh....Stephen Baldwin (who has experience riding bulls already from being in the movie "8 Seconds") got thrown from a bull after 4 seconds. He now has an injured arm and a cracked rib. Ouch.

So he's the first one kicked off (litterally) If they're gonna be announcing when the celebs get injured we won't have to watch this show when it airs.
