Ochungulo Family's Benzema and rapper Barak Jacuzzi are set to star in a new reality show dubbed Fisi Love.
The reality show has adopted a format similar to global hit The Bachelor and will see thirteen single contestants battle it out for a relationship with gengetone heart-throb Benzema otherwise known as Alejandro.
The trailer seen by Kenyans.co.ke painted a picture of a drama-filled, high-octane show with contestants demonstrating an unbridled competitive spirit complete with physical fights. In an exclusive interview with Kenyans.co.ke on Sunday, January 12, Benzema revealed details of the production.
"The show could hit the screens within two weeks," Benzema intimated.
He disclosed that with the Fisi Love trailer ready, they planned on distributing the show via online platforms and traditional television.
"We'll hopefully broadcast online and on TV, we're currently in negotiations with a few stations," he stated.
The show will see the contestants take on various unique challenges and tasks over a twelve-week period.
One contestant will be eliminated each week, with the last person left to take home the coveted prize, a relationship with Benzema.
The tasks and challenges will be carefully crafted and uniquely tied to Nairobi's bustling social scene.
Gas rapper Barak Jacuzzi will serve as the show's main host.
"The show is created by me and Barak. Barak will be the host of Fisi Love," Benzema confirmed.
Entertainment-themed Kenyan reality shows have proved a hit in recent years with shows such as Nairobi Diaries and Bahati Reality gaining cult followings.
Ochungulo Family has established itself among the most sought after artists in the country, headlining major shows and releasing chart-topping hits such as Kaa na Mama Yako and Na Iwake.
