Phat Joe to host new dating show
Our very own Phat Joe has landed a new dating show on Vuzu Amp and is calling on all eligible bachelors to get ready to find the perfect partner.
As you may be aware, Bongani Urban has been filling in for Phat Joe over the past two weeks as he is away filming a top secret TV show. Well, it seems as though the cat is finally out the bag! Phat Joe will the host of a new dating show called 'Take Me Out Mzansi'.
The show, that will match up keen singles, will hit your screen from the 10th of July
Producers of 'Take Me Out Mzansi' says the series will aim to be exciting and provocative, as well as funny.
"A single player is introduced to a panel of 30 girls or boys, and tries to persuade them to keep their lights on, so he or she can choose one for a potential date. The show provides an entertaining mix of comedy, jeopardy, surprises and possible romance."
Just like dating in the real world, it's all about first impressions. If the panel is not impressed they can switch off their podium lights immediately, and if it's a total "black out", the player instantly goes home alone.
M-Net's Head of Reality for Local Entertainment Channels, Sphumelele Sibeko, says viewers are in for a treat.
"Take Me Out Mzansi has all the ingredients for a weekly dose of great viewing: humour, surprises, romance and unadulterated fun. Phat Joe tops off an already perfect mix, to make for brilliant television," Sibeko says.
We cannot wait for Phat Joe to return and give us the skinny on this exciting new adventure that he's embarked on. As soon as we know anything, you'll be the first to know!
