PR Newswire – KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Aug. 1, 2015 –

"In an unprecedented move for the television-shopping industry, Jewelry Television® (JTV), is announcing that it will air Rock Star Designer, the first reality show broadcast on a home-shopping network. “JTV Rock Star Designer,” has involved a national search for talented jewelry designers, one of whom will win a $5,000 cash prize and the opportunity to design and sell a jewelry collection on the national jewelry and gemstone shopping network.

The reality series will debut on Aug. 7 at 7:30 p.m. EDT, leading into the network’s most-watched show, “Girlfriend Friday.”

There will also be an encore presentation every Wednesday at 2 a.m. EDT beginning Aug. 12.

In March 2015, JTV issued a call for entries and received applications from designers around the country.

Each aspiring designer was required to submit examples of their jewelry designs and a biographical video describing why he/she should be JTV’s first “Rock Star Designer.” The public voted on its favorite entries, narrowing the field to 10 semi-finalists."

Actually, QVC kinda has, just not quite in realty show version.  The 50 in 50 tour (long before reality shows were on the air) and now QVC Sprouts - they are similar ideas anyway, just not constructed yet into a reality show format.
