The Neelys get a 'House of Payne'


 

It's a clash of the TV families: Tyler Perry's Payne family is sparring with the Food Network's Neelys! Well, not really, but Cassi Davis and Lavan Davis (who play Ella and Curtis Payne on "House of Payne") will be stopping by to cook with Patrick (or Pat) and Gina Neely, who host "Down Home with the Neelys" this Saturday.

The Food Network's Website offers a sneak peak of the show. We couldn't help but notice how affectionate Cassi and LaVan are with each other, even though they aren't married in real life. Pat and Gina also got a kick out of this.

"Look how they kind of touch and hug!" Gina said with a laugh. "What's all that about?" Pat, who is her real-life husband, said that "these are two people that are married on the show, but are not married in real life, but he really looks after her, just like a real couple." How sweet!

You'll have to catch the episode to see what the Neelys and the Davises got cooking, but, from the look of things, it was tasty.

Catch the show on the Food Network, June 13 at 11 a.m. EST.
