Philadelphia musician looking for love on County Music Television reality show

    Paige Duke is a South Carolina belle and Dustin Tavella is one of 20 men still in the running to win her heart.

    Tavella is a Philadelphia musician, but he took a break from all that to film the third season of Country Music Television’s “Sweet Home Alabama” — a reality dating series.

    Duke is a former NASCAR Sprint Cup Series ambassador and veterinary technician. Tavella, 25, entertains at children’s hospitals and has toured the world doing missionary work. Let’s hope Duke is looking for a sensitive soul.

    The first episode aired Friday, and the second is due this Friday at 9 p.m. Viewers can watch as, “the battle for Paige’s heart unfolds in a heated paintball shootout, as the opposing sides take aim at each other in the first challenge.”

    Dates will be set in meadows, haylofts and carriage rides, and one cowboy will turn to Duke for comfort. At the end of it all, more suitors will be sent home as Duke narrows down her options. Just like in real life.
