Thursday, April 24th 2008, 4:00 AM

Oxygen announced that former "View" personality Star Jones will host a "Bad Girls Club" reunion show on May 20.

"Star Jones is not someone you want to p- off," said Amy Introcaso-Davis, senior vice president of original programming and development for Bravo. "And the girls learn that the hard way."

The network also announced pickups of "Bad Girls Club," "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood" and "Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency," and introduced four new series in production and development.

"We're adding more value and more momentum to a blossoming brand," said Bravo and Oxygen media president Lauren Zalaznick. "Clearly, Oxygen produces shows that hit a nerve with a young, passionate audience."

New series include "Coolio's Rules," about the family life of rapper Coolio; "Dance Your Ass Off," a reality competition in which eight pairs of contestants use their dancing prowess to lose weight and win big; "Glamazons," chronicling the lives of the Glamazons, four plus-sized single women who appeared on "America's Got Talent" last season and are now living in NYC and trying to make their music industry dreams come true, and "Meltdown," a behind-the-scenes look at celebrity news.

The network also presented a new scheduling strategy it's calling "seamless Tuesday nights," meaning there will be a new show or episode of an Oxygen original series every Tuesday night at 10. Seamless Tuesday nights will kick off June 17 with the season premiere of "Tori & Dean."
