Los Angeles, California – Fox Television has announced that it has completed its search for actors to play the three main characters for its new Monday night series, “The Tea Party Girls.” The drama, which premieres in November, follows the adventures of three conservative women politicians as they navigate the male-dominated political arena of Washington, D.C.

The real-life characters in the series are former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, Senator Michele Bachmann and Arizona Governor Janice Brewer.

Playing Palin is Tina Fey who originated the Palin look-alike character on Saturday Night Live (SNL). Miley Cyrus will play Michele Bachmann. Cyrus was selected after producers saw her performance as Bachmann in last Saturday’s edition of SNL where she performed a sexy Republican version of her song “We Can’t Stop.”

The producers had the hardest time looking for the actor to play Janice Brewer, but finally decided on Terrence Stamp, best known for his memorable performance in the film, “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.”

Fox Television reportedly has very high hopes that this new series will win big in next year’s Emmys.

Update: Facing the threat of a potential lawsuit, FOX just announced it was changing the name of the show to “Face It,” because a similar reality show on the Oxygen Network already has that title. The Oxygen show, produced by model Naomi Campbell, is a modeling competition where contestants compete to be “the face” of a national brand.

New York — Jealous of NBC’s highly successful reality TV show, “The Voice,” FOX network today announced the launch of a new reality show called “The Face.”

Based largely on the same concept as “The Voice,” the new FOX series is a beauty competition that starts with “blind auditions.” Celebrity judges will be sitting on chairs facing the audience. Contestants will come on stage and deliver a 30-second speech. Judges will then try to imagine how the contestants look like totally based on their speech and choose or not to choose to press their chair buttons that will turn their chairs around.

Contestants who get a vote or several votes from the judges will then choose which of the judges will coach them on beauty, poise and personality going into the public voting stage of the show. Twelve finalists will be chosen to face public voting and elimination via phone or text.

The celebrity judges are Donald Trump, owner of the Miss Universe Pageant Corporation; Tyra Banks, producer of the TV show, “America’s Top Model;” CNN Anchor Anderson Cooper; and Television host Ellen Degeneres.

Asked what viewers will take away from this reality show, FOX said, “The window to one’s beauty – both external and internal — is the mouth.”
