'Stars on Mars' Celebrity Contestants Lineup: 12 Stars From 'Vanderpump Rules,' 'Real Housewives,' 'Modern Family' & More Are Competing!

The premiere of Fox’s all new reality series, Stars on Mars, is tonight!

Hosted by William Shatner, the series will bring a handful of stars together, where they will live, eat, sleep, strategize and bond with each other in the same space station.

During the show, the stars will be “faced with authentic conditions that simulate life on Mars, and they must use their brains and brawn – or maybe just their stellar social skills – to outlast the competition and claim the title of ‘brightest star in the galaxy.’”

The cast will compete in missions and will vote to eliminate one of their crewmates each week, sending them back to Earth.

Stars on Mars premieres Monday, June 5 at 8 p.m. ET.

Olympian Adam Rippon Is Engaged to Jussi-Pekka Kajaala!

Former Olympian Adam Rippon and his partner Jussi-Pekka “JP” Kajaala are engaged!

The 31-year-old figure skater shared the news on his Instagram, writing, “JP and I didn’t get to see each other for almost all of 2020 because of the pandemic. When there was finally a chance for me to go and see him in Finland, I jumped at it. I was there for a little over two months. While I was there, I would tell him about five million jokes that I would want to pitch during my 5 hour zoom meetings for our NBC comedy (hi, @billy4529 and @susankittenplan ). And he would drive me into the Finnish forest where I would attempt to try and “help” him shovel snow so he could keep working on the cottage he’s building. So, in between all that and binging the entire 4 seasons of The Crown, we bought ourselves some rings and said that magic word.. “duh!” We got ~*engaged*”

The couple were first linked in 2018.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Check out some of their cute celebratory photos together that Adam posted along with the announcement!
