WELCOME TO MIAMI, BAD GIRLS

“Bad Girls” Return to www.OxygenLive.com with Fan Favorites and New Cast Members; Voting for “Bad Girl, Bad Hair”
Fan Poll Starts Tuesday, July 27 on www.Oxygen.com

NEW YORK, July 27, 2010 – The “Bad Girls” are back – but this season, they are taking over Miami. The latest batch of fiery femmes move in as Oxygen debuts the new season of network’s popular series “Bad Girls Club Miami,” in its new city and time, on Tuesday, August 3 at 9 PM ET/PT.  Also this week, fan favorite cast members from the previous seasons, along with new cast members,  will moderate live chats for fans on www.OxygenLive.com, dishing on the episode’s drama, as it airs live, on the East and West Coasts. And from today through premiere night, fans can gear up for the new season by voting on www.oxygen.com in the “Bad Girls, Bad Hair” poll for the most hair raising moments in “Bad Girls” history.

In the premiere episode, the seven new “Bad Girls” invade Miami with style  and first impressions are quickly established. Kristen, the Barbie of the bunch, arrives to the mansion last and becomes the first target as alliances form when Miami local, Morgan, and her diva like behavior divide the house.

Unimpressed by her new roommates, Morgan ignores most of the girls and creates her own clique. After clubbing with her new followers, Morgan returns home and it becomes clear that the rest of the “Bad Girls” have had enough of her, locking her out of the house. Not to be tested, Morgan retaliates claiming hometown advantage, and with the help of her new friends, the claws come out. Will Morgan’s ‘holier than thou’ mantra make for the season’s first eviction?

For fans who no longer want to wait until the next morning to chat around the water cooler about the latest “Bad Girls Club Miami” gossip. OxygenLive will provide a live experience in which fans can socialize, interact and react in real time through a live chat, Facebook and Twitter (#badgirlsclub) all in one place while the show airs. This season, “Bad Girls” return to OxygenLive.com when fan favorites along with new cast members participate – Tanisha (season two), Flo (season four), Kristen & Brandi (new season) will host on the east coast while Natalie (season four), Tiffany (season three) and Lea (season four) host on the west coast.

Also, starting today, fans can relive and rally for the favorite hair raising moments in “Bad Girls Club” history when the fansite launches the “Bad Girl, Bad Hair” fan poll. Now through August 3, fans can visit www.oxygen.com to vote on the most memorable mane-tastic storylines and events during the five seasons of “Bad Girls Club.” The top-ranked hair moments, including Tanisha’s weave and Lyric’s headwrap, will be revealed in a special on-air promo during the premiere of the new series “Hair Battle Spectacular” on August 10 at 10PM ET/PT.

Coming off of last season’s best performing series ever in network history, surpassing the three million viewer mark, “Bad Girls Miami” features a new set of feisty femmes who take to the beaches of Miami and live together with similarly explosive personalities – resulting in constant clashing between housemates. Besides hitting the trendy South Beach clubs, these “Bad Girls” take it up a notch — with manipulative backstabbing, in-house love triangles, exotic trips to the Caribbean, unexpected alliances and endless mind games. “Bad Girls Club” is produced by Bunim-Murray Productions.
