CMT hits road for "Trucker" makeovers

By Kimberly Nordyke

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Country-themed cable channel CMT is coming to the aid of the nation's truck drivers with a new show spun off from its makeover series "Trick My Truck."

"Trick My Trucker" will feature two out-of-shape truck drivers who are confronted about their unhealthy lifestyle on the road. With the help of celebrity stylist Harmonie Krieger and trainer Aaron Aguilera, they'll learn nutritional eating habits and exercise routines they can do at truck stops and rest areas.

Their progress will be tracked over several weeks, after which they will reveal their "improved selves" to family and friends. Host Bob Guiney, previously of ABC's "The Bachelor, and his team will determine which driver has most committed to their lifestyle makeover and reward the winner with fuel money for their rigs.

The six-episode series debuts at 9 p.m. November 10.
