New York, NY (February 17, 2010) – A Reality Stars pavilion presented by ISawYouOnTV.com will bring fans following the Wizard World Comic Con tour a chance to meet the reality celebrities they love – and the stars they love to hate. The Reality Stars pavilion will premiere at Toronto Comic Con.

ISawYouOnTV.com is partly owned by Rupert Boneham, one of the original Survivor reality heroes. The latest reality event starring Boneham; Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, debuted last Thursday night to the largest audience since 2007 with over 14 million people tuning in.
“I love watching Idol with my two kids, Allie and Noah, and having these Idols, along with Survivor and many TV reality celebrities, goes a long way towards bringing out lots of kids and families to experience what all our Comic Con events have to offer,” said Shamus. “This is truly going to be a tour built for the whole family, and we welcome all the new faces.”
Murtz Jaffer, Toronto-based pop-culture guru and Reality Obsessed TV show host will cover the Reality Stars pavilion at Toronto Comic Con. Jaffer also owns and operate the popular InsidePulse.com, which features the latest dish on reality stars and all things pop-culture.
“Toronto Comic Con is a fan’s event and Reality Obsessed gives fans a window into all the reality shows they love. I have been to over 1,000 reality show premieres, finales and parties and I can say without equivocation that this is the single biggest reality event ever held in Canada and the only chance to meet the biggest stars on TV today. I am excited to bring the stars out to meet and greet all attendees,” said Jaffer.
Jaffer’s Reality Obsessed TV show answers big picture questions about reality stars and airs Thursdays at 7 PM on TVTropolis across Canada.
I Saw You On TVT is the brainchild of Rupert Boneham, the much-loved star of CBS’s Survivor: Pearl Islands and Survivor: All-Stars, and Jimmy Swan, a passionate music mogul focused on artist development and career building. The concept launched with the intent of giving television and film stars a platform on which to display their musical talent. In the U.S., I Saw You On TVT is distributed by Executive Music Group (EMG) in association with Universal Music Group.
