Billy Hufsey joins the reality tv fray

I know; most of you are saying, “Who?” Billy Hufsey, who got his television start on the television show, Fame in the 1980’s and later went on to do time on the soap opera, Days of Our Lives. Name ring a bell now?

No? Okay, maybe you should watch this. And after watching his career to date condensed into an 8 minute video, you may want to watch his upcoming reality television show, Confessions of a Teen Idol, which starts  January 4th  on VH1. But the show isn’t all about Hufsey. Think of it as a career rehab for former teen idols:

The show, debuting January 4, invites seven teen idols from the 80’s and 90’s to live together and reflect on the highs and lows of “hearthrobbery.” After receiving mentoring from a life coach and in-their-face industry experts—each one decides whether to attempt a career comeback or to pursue another career path.

Billy said that he had what he calls a “void in my soul, and missing putting smiles on people’s faces,” so the answer screamed at him—and brought him back to Hollywood after eight years in self-imposed showbiz exile. A lifelong entrepreneur who bought, built up and sold mortgage, investment and limousine companies while working as a full-time performer, he quit acting and singing to devote more time to these endeavors which demanded a great deal of his time.

Besides giving him exposure before an entire new generation of viewers, “Confessions Of A Teen Idol” is also a springboard for Hufsey to fulfill another great passion of his—singing, and more specifically, his lifelong dream of being a recording artist. On one of the episodes, he will be singing “Better Man,” the inspirational first single from his upcoming CD called—what else?—Confessions.
