Celebrity IOU Season 8: Mandy Moore & Other Guest stars, Episode Guide, & more

HGTV stars Drew and Jonathan Scott, also known as the Property Brothers, are famous for shows like Buying and Selling, Brother Vs. Brother, and Property Brothers: At Home. One of their most heartwarming shows is Celebrity IOU, where stars surprise their adored ones with a special home renovation.

There's good news for fans of the show: Celebrity IOU is back with season eight, and this time, we will see A-list celebrities like Golden Globe Award and Emmy Award-nominated actress Mandy Moore; Emmy Award-winning comedian, actress, producer, and writer, Wanda Sykes; Grammy Award-winning actor, writer and director, Zach Braff, and more. Drew revealed that these celebs don’t get paid anything to be on the show. He said, "They’re just doing this out of the kindness of their heart. There is no fee. You think about it, these celebrities going to do some sort of a guest spot or a cameo on a show, and they make a lot of money. They don’t get anything from this aside from the satisfaction that they’re doing something good for someone they love."

Talking about the impact these acts of kidness have on people, Jonathan said in an interview, "When you hand the keys over, and you transform a family’s lives, I think that also impacts everyone around them. You really are paying it forward that way. These celebrities come in, and they are selfless. They are willing to go way outside their comfort zones and do something they’ve never done before, and it does really create a bond. We’ll go to events years later and we’ll bump into Viola Davis, Brad Pitt, you name it, and it’s like a family reunion because you’ve really experienced something special with all of these folks."
