E! to Premiere New Series LADYGANG  Image

Forget ladylike! Anything goes when E!'s new topical series "LadyGang" premieres Sunday, October 28 at 10:30 PM ET/PT. Inspired by the popular podcast, "The LadyGang," the twelve episode, thirty-minute series will follow Hollywood's hottest girl posse, Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jac Vanek as they are joined by celebrity guests for un-filtered, honest and hysterical champagne-fueled discussions about the things you would only divulge to your closest girlfriends. With no topic off limits, the hilariously unapologetic trio will talk about subjects ranging from social media, to personal vices, money, sex, relationships, and balance of power with guests including Ed Sheeran, Karamo Brown, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Robin Thicke and April Love Geary, Jenna Ushkowitz, Kevin Mchale and more. This girl gang will deliver moments that'll leave you laughing and feeling empowered.

"Becca, Jac and Keltie are those great friends who will tell you the truth even when you don't want to hear it," said Amy Introcaso-Davis, EVP Development and Production E!. "With the 'LadyGang,' no subject is TABOO and watching an episode is like spending a joyful night out on the town with the funniest, smartest women you could possibly find."

"The LadyGang" podcast, with its exponentially-growing female, millennial fan base, has boasted over 25 million downloads since its inception in 2015. It has also been awarded "Podcast of the Year" and has graced People Magazine and made Entertainment Weekly's "Must List." The podcast was also recently nominated for "The E!'s People's Choice Awards" for best Pop Podcast of 2018.
