This summer, BET will premiere “College Hill: Celebrity Edition,” a revival of its hit reality series.
The eight-episode series will follow NeNe Leakes, Ray J, Lamar Odom, Big Freedia, Stacey Dash, DreamDoll, India Love, and Slim Thug as they join HBCU Texas Southern University as students.
According to BET, each cast member is committed to focusing on their higher education as a personal challenge to prove it’s never too late.
The celebs will attend class alongside current Texas Southern University students to complete a specialty certification program in order to graduate.
Like any other college student, they must complete their course work along with required internships, extra credit opportunities, group projects, and more.
Tracey Edmonds, who is executive producing “College Hill: Celebrity Edition,” said:
As the original creator and Executive Producer of College Hill, I am so elated to partner with Texas Southern University and be able to bring back this cherished franchise with an exciting new twist that I am sure will entertain and inspire new and old fans across the board.
We intend to provide a fun but sometimes challenging journey that will show viewers it’s never too late to go back to school.
