RadarOnline.com obtained MHM/Stander’s pitch letter to Lopez which reads:
“MHM Productions in conjunction with Stander Productions is producing a celebrity dating reality show. Stander Productions is the force behind the highly successful, Elimidate and numerous shows on E! and the CW. MHM Productions produces the award winning lifestyle show 'Alive & Well.'
"The celebrity dating reality show will be shot in the Los Angeles area and will feature a group of celebrity women who deserve a “second chance at love”. The women will date a variety of men as they search for true love. The women featured will be able to vote off suitors who they are not interested in, and as the field of men narrows they are left with what could be the man of their dreams.
"At this time we are interested in Vanessa Lopez becoming part of the cast. I am attaching a letter of intent that does not contractually obligate Vanessa to the project, but allows us to name her as part of the cast while the project is being shopped. Once an agreement with a network has been reached, a contractual offer will be made to Ms. Lopez."
As RadarOnline.com reported exclusively Vanessa hired well-known attorney Gloria Allred and filed a lawsuit against NBA star Shaquille O’Neal for harassment following a five year affair that ended when she thought she was pregnant with the superstar’s baby.
