Give two hopeful singles their own fashion consultants and interior designers, and allow them four days to perk up each other's homes and style, and what do you get? Swap/Meet, the newest reality show on the network block-and Lily Allen's dream job turned nightmare. At first, Lily thought working on Swap/Meetwould make her an interior design star. She just never imagined she'd end up working with a ditzy host, a jealous competitor, and feuding fashion czars. Plus, the cute, curmudgeonly carpenter on her team knows just how to push her buttons.
