BRAVO GREENLIGHTS "THE BEAUTY FOUNDATION" PILOT PRESENTATION

NEW YORK - April 18, 2007 - Bravo announced the development deal for "The Beauty Foundation," a potential docu-drama series following Billy Brasfield (known as Billy B. in the fashion industry), a world-renowned make-up artist leading a jet-set lifestyle tending to clients around the globe. When he isn't charging $5,000 to prepare a celebrity for a photo shoot, he's down south trying to rebuild his tiny Mississippi hometown. The clash between the high-gloss make-up artist lifestyle and the grit of restoration projects provides a fascinating look at this unique individual and the many challenges he faces moving between two different worlds.

World of Wonder will produce the pilot presentation, with Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey serving as executive producers. Based in both Los Angeles and London, World of Wonder is best known for award-winning films and documentaries such as "The Eyes of Tammy Faye", "Party Monster" (both the documentary and the feature film starring Macaulay Culkin), and "Inside Deep Throat". On both sides of the Atlantic World of Wonder produces high profile, highly personal and highly watchable films for a wide range of networks including the BBC, Channel 4, Five, HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, A&E, MTV, VH1, and Discovery. Recent productions include "One Punk Under God" (Sundance), "Tori & Dean: Inn Love" (Oxygen) and "Wife Mom Bounty Hunter" (WE). World of Wonder is also a pioneer in on-line television with its own IPTV site http://www.wowtv.tv and its highly entertaining daily blog http://www.worldofwonder.net
