SHOW DESCRIPTION

Do you have the same name as a celebrity? Have you ever thought about what it would be like to swap lives with that famous person to see how he or she lives? That's what happens in this reality show. Each week, a regular person trades lives with his or her famous namesake for a week -- living in the celebrity's house and interacting with family, friends and co-workers. The celebrity does the same. In one episode, David Hasselhoff, the ``Baywatch'' actor, swaps lives for a week with David Hasselhoff, the 27-year-old high-voltage power technician and landscaper from Texas. Yeah, it seems like their lives are a little different.
