Bio

Tommy Habeeb is an American television host and producer best known for hosting the reality show Cheaters. He is credited as Tommy Grand on the show.

Habeeb, a Texas native, was born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas. From day one he had his eye on the stars. Determined to perform from a very early age, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of acting soon after completing high school.

Briefly attending UCLA, Tommy made his way through the studios and worked on several feature films and television shows.

Habeeb relocated to New York City in 1990 to develop television and music projects. During his tenure he produced several pop, rock and country albums. Later returning to Texas, he produced Entertainment Texas, a talk show format focusing on his home state's entertainment business.

While in Texas, Habeeb took a sudden career turn and designed a buttoned necktie, never seen before. This new accessory gained instant attention from many celebrities such as Michael Jordan, creating a new fashion trend. Habeeb's top-selling ties retail in formalwear stores across America.

With the enormous success of his neckties, Habeeb subsequently ventured into designing shirts and other items which were sold through many popular retail stores such as JC Penney and Wal-Mart.

Habeeb sold his business to afford him the time to return to what he loved most of all: acting. Now one of the busiest creative forces in Texas, Habeeb starred in and co-produced the weekly reality television series, Cheaters.

The show enjoys distribution with 80% clearance in over 230 markets in syndication around the world. Goldstein/Habeeb Entertainment produces Cheaters with investigations filmed across the country, documenting relationships involving suspected infidelity in varied stages of development.

Doubling as the show's star, private investigator Tommy Grand, and as the co-producer of Cheaters, there was little time remaining for this low handicap golfer to engage in his favourite recreation.

Stag, a reality show that documents the happenings of a couple's bachelor or bachelorette party, was Habeeb's venture for 2004. He also hosted the syndicated television show Eye For An Eye.

The 6'3 producer is also featured in automobile commercials in several markets across the US and is the celebrity spokesman of a national ad campaign for the telephone company, Phones For All.
