Celebrity Showmance
Revision as of 17:35, 26 September 2017
Synopsis
The ITV press office say:
- Six single celebrities have been paired into three very unlikely 'couples' and set ridiculous challenges to attract maximum social media attention. Can they persuade their friends, family and fans that it's real? More importantly, can they generate the most likes and comments on social media to win the Celebrity Showmance crown and trophy?
- Unlike any other TV game show, in Celebrity Showmance the public become unwitting judges, as each couples' chance of winning hinges on the amount of buzz they generate across social media.
- Each challenge culminates in a photo or video, which the celebrities post on social media. The couple that generates the highest number of likes, comments, shares and retweets about their relationship is awarded the most points - so the pressure is on to take the most iconic selfie. The couple with the highest score at the end of the series will be awarded a trophy and declared winners in the game of Celebrity Showmance!
