Bravo No Longer The Gayest Channel

thumbnail icon: Bravo No Longer The Gayest Channel

When it was announced last week that Whitney Port is getting her own MTV show, we all had a good laugh. Now we can all have a good cry. From The Hollywood Reporter:

The Hills co-star Brody Jenner is getting his own MTV series.

The network has committed to six episodes of Bromance, which has been buzzed about online recently. The show, from Ryan Seacrest's production company, will feature a group of "regular guys" who come to Hollywood and compete in a series of challenges from skydiving to dealing with the paparazzi -- in the hopes of ultimately being chosen by Jenner to become part of his entourage.

Along the way, contestants will be whittled down via "Hot Tub Elimination Ceremonies" after which rejected "bros" will be asked to leave the bachelor pad dripping wet in a swimsuit, luggage in hand. Bringing to mind various dating reality shows, contestants also will have shots at a "group date" and "alone time" with Jenner in every episode.

Out of all the people on The Hills, some of whom may or may not deserve any additional attention, Jenner is the least deserving of his own show. The most interesting thing about him is that he has his last name tattooed on his body in a Bam Margera font. And yet, I have to admit, I will watch Bromance (nullus). Mostly I just want to hear what the contestants tell their friends back home after they get eliminated. "I just never got enough alone time with Brody. Trevor was always interrupting us when we were trying to chill." Also HOT TUB ELIMINATION CEREMONIES? Amazing. "Please pack your dignity and go."

I don't even know who this is, and I'm probably thankful for that, because he sounds like a reject. It's a pity he's so beautiful.
