Hopefully, it will be a reflection of […]

Season 2 finds the privileged posse on some serious travels including trips to China and […]

Were you born on July 20? If so, you could be a winner in the Lifetime Lottery sweepstakes. The premiere date of Lifetime’s new series The Lottery, directly coincides with the Lifetime Lottery sweepstakes (the series premieres July 20) and Lifetime is looking to award one person with $10,000.
