E!Get ready to bust a move on the basketball court!
E! is excited to announce a brand new reality show is coming to the network: introducing L.A. Clippers Dance Squad!
The eight-episode docu-series will give fans an "unprecedented in-depth look at what it takes to be a member of the elite L.A. Clippers dance team, both on and off the court. From hours of auditions and rehearsals to balancing personal lives and relationships, this docu-series takes fans behind-the-scenes, showing what it really takes to make it to the floor of the Staples Center in Los Angeles."
The series will begin with summer auditions where only a handful of the eager hopefuls will land coveted positions on the team. As the season progresses, fans will see that it takes a lot more than talent to make it on the Clippers dance team.
"The Clippers dance team is an established and popular part of L.A.'s sports story, and we are excited to give our fans an exclusive peek into this high-energy world," Jeff Olde, EVP Programming and Development at E!, said in a press release today. "This series will bring a fascinating and revealing look at this exclusive organization and the glamorous, larger-than-life women who are competing in a very high-stakes game both on and off the court."
"The women of the Clippers dance team embody the physical and spiritual essence of the modern woman," Petra Pope, Creative Director of Entertainment Teams for the L.A. Clippers, added Monday morning. "These athletes come from various ethnic backgrounds and dance training. We look to them to be aspirational ambassadors to all those they encounter."
L.A. Clippers Dance Squad is slated to premiere in early 2016, only on E!.
