Previous story…
E! Entertainment is embarking with its own original programming, with the commissioning of a dating show for bisexual people presented by RuPaul’s Drag Race finalist and Celebrity Big Brother UK winner Courtney Act.
The move represents one of the channel’s first original show commissions and The Bi Life heralds from Monkey, a production company that’s already delivered reality TV hits in the UK, like Made in Chelsea and Young, Dumb and Living Off Mum.
The Bi Life will track a group of LGBTQ+ British singles as they as interact with each other, fall in and out of love, and explore their identities, all the while remaining in a Barcelona villa. Courtney Act, also known as Shane Jenek, will act as host of the series.
Act had this to say about the series:
“As if this summer hasn’t been hot enough, we decided to crank it up another notch with The Bi Life on E! It’s high time there was a dating show for the large number of young people today, like me, who are attracted to more than one gender. In 2018 we know that sexuality is fluid and sharing the stories and experiences, the laughter and the love making, of young bi people is so important. So get ready to see the true stories of bisexual singles, who are the largest part of the LGBTQ+ community, but the least known.”
The Bi Life will consist of 10 episodes and it’s set to premiere in October.
