NBC Cancels "Fashion Star"
7/27/2013
by Kimberly Nordyke , Lesley Goldberg

The fate of "Fashion Star" is all sewn up.

NBC has canceled the reality competition, in which a group of fashion designers competed to have their garments sold in Macy's, Saks and Express stores, NBC Entertainment president Bob Greenblatt confirmed Saturday at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour.

Speaking to reporters following his morning session, Greenblatt confirmed the fate of the series with a swift and firm "no" when asked by The Hollywood Reporter if the show would return.

The May 10 finale of the reality show drew 2.5 million viewers and a 0.5 rating in the coveted adults 18-49 demo, a significant drop from the season-one finale's 1.6 rating (on a Tuesday night).

I didn't even know it was still on. I guess I'm not the only one.

I must admit, I never heard of it.
