Superstars is Back – and it’s back on ABC beginning June 23rd, 2009.

The only reason I really care is not because it features sports heros and celebrities teamed together to compete for something of extreme value… but because another good friend is going to reach network television superstardom.

Congratulations Kristina Leskinen on hopefully kicking some Terrell Owens / Bode Miller / Jennifer Capriati / Brandi Chastain (think soccer + sports bra) and other sudo celebrity / superstar asses.
