Rock the Block Goes to Las Vegas With Celebrity Pairings for Season Seven Get ready for a star-studded season of Rock the Block! The popular HGTV show is taking its renovation magic to the Entertainment Capital of the World, Las Vegas, and pairing up with some A-list celebrities. In its seventh season, Rock the Block will bring together two celebrity teams to transform four rundown properties in Sin City's iconic neighborhoods. The show's format remains unchanged, as two teams of one professional contractor and one celebrity partner will be tasked with designing and building their own unique spaces within a limited timeframe. The catch? Each team will have only 12 days to complete the renovation, making it an even more challenging and thrilling experience for both the pros and the stars. This season's celebrity pairings are just as exciting as the locations. Country music superstar Keith Urban is teaming up with contractor Ty Pennington, while actress and comedian Christina Hendricks will be working alongside designer Mina Starsiak. With their unique perspectives and skills, these teams promise to bring some Vegas flair to their renovations. Throughout the season, viewers can expect to see a mix of modern and vintage designs, bold colors, and clever space-saving solutions as our celebrity duos tackle everything from mid-century modern homes to trendy poolside retreats. Will they be able to balance their creative visions with the constraints of the renovation timeline? Tune in to find out on Rock the Block's seventh season. The new season of Rock the Block premieres this fall, so mark your calendars and get ready to join the fun in Las Vegas!#Las_Vegas #Rock_the_Block #Keith_Urban #Ty_Pennington #Christina_Hendricks #Mina_Starsiak #HGTV #Sin_City
