Oxygen Media brings the heat back to the playing field with the season two premiere of "Bad Girls All Star Battle," beginning tonight, January 7 at 8 PM ET/PT. The series pits 16 of the most memorable girls in "Bad Girls" HISTORY under one roof to compete in a series of over-the-top physical and brain teasing challenges for a chance to win $100,000 and the title of "Baddest Bad Girl of All Time." Returning with musician, actor and heartthrob Ray J (@RayJ) as host, the competition ups the ante for the sophomore season with more girls and outrageous challenges including a twerking match, a stiletto standoff, mud wrestling, and a daring eating Contest with fish eyes and cockroaches.

"Oxygen amped up the challenges to a whole new level," says Host Ray J. "Emotions ran high and the Bad Girls went hard. It was a much bigger game, but they always kept their eyes on the prize. If you thought it was crazy in season one, wait until you see this season."
In season one, 14 of the most memorable 'Bad Girls' battled it out for the trophy, but Jenniffer Hardwick from "Bad Girls Club" Atlanta reigned supreme and took the competition earning her $100,000.
