What happens when you take the worst looking rooms in America and give $2000 to host Kelli Kirkland Powers and her amazing design team? You get "Takeover My Makeover." The hot new show from the producers of the wildly successful "Design on A Dime" and "$40 A Day With Rachel Ray."

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 29, 2006 -- With humor, panache and a tell-it-like-it-is personality, Kelli Kirkland Powers hosts HGTV’s much anticipated new design series, “Takeover My Makeover”. With the help of three well known designers (winner of ABC’s reality series “Domestic Diva” Frank Fontana, “Clean Sweep” beauty Kelli Ellis, and style expert Valerie Bickford), “Takeover My Makeover” tackles the worst looking theme rooms in America and turns them into works of art for under $2000. With a Mexican Fiesta Kitchen, a Bohemian Chic Bedroom, a Ski Lodge Living Room and a Safari Den just for starters, “Takeover My Makeover” takes bargain interior design to a completely new level.

Add a new youthful vibe, an extremely diverse cast, and makeovers that can’t be rivaled, and “Takeover My Makeover” looks to be the next big show in home design. With host Kelli Kirkland Powers, a television veteran with extensive improvisation training at the world famous Groundlings Theatre (alumni Will Farrell and Lisa Kudrow), “Takeover My Makeover” is funny, edgy, and breathes new life into the HGTV primetime line up.

Kelli has appeared in numerous television shows including Cold Case, Frasier, Will and Grace, General Hospital, The Young and The Restless, Angel, The Wayans Bros, Family Matters, Step By Step, Yes Dear, The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, Star Trek Voyager and sketches on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, to name a few. “Takeover My Makeover” is Kelli’s first primetime hosting series.

Takeover My Makeover has a 26 episode order from HGTV and will premiere during sweeps on Saturday, May 6, 2006 at 7pm (ET/PT). Check local listings in your area.
