VIDEO: Sneak Peek - Coolio/Mark McGrath on Tonight's CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP

The wife and the girlfriend of two of the biggest names in '90s music swap lives and homes for one week, on CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP, tonight TUESDAY, MARCH 5 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. Get a sneak peek below!

In "Celebrity Wife Swap," two mothers of celebrity families, each with opposing values, trade households, lifestyles and children (but not bedrooms) in a week-long challenge. In the first part of the exchange, each mom moves into the other's home and agrees to follow a manual of "household rules" written by the departing mother, including how to parent, manage their social life, do house work, unwind and more. Everything changes in the second half of the week, when "new mommy" takes charge, introduces her own set of rules and runs the "nest" her way. At the end of the week the two couples meet for the first time. In a raw, honest and highly-charged exchange of views, the couples will make frank assessments of each another and discuss their experiences, having had a very real taste of what life would be like in someone else's family.

Grammy(c) Award-winning rapper Coolio, his girlfriend, Mimi, and her three children -- Majaniek (14), Javante (10) and Tariq (5) -- live in a suburban community in Las Vegas. When he's not touring or hanging out with friends, Coolio spends the majority of his time sleeping or relaxing at home, while Mimi works as a bartender and an exotic dancer, in addition to taking care of their home and raising her three children.

Mark McGrath, who is perhaps best known as the front man of the '90s rock band Sugar Ray, and his wife, Carin, are parents to two-year-old twins Lydon and Hartley.

When self-sufficient Mimi arrives in Los Angeles, CA to swap lives with Carin, she is surprised to see a maid, a nanny and Carin's parents -- who live with them full time. Mimi is flabbergasted when she sees how the twins have complete control over the household. She also zeroes in on Mark's "helicopter parenting" and thinks that his hovering over everyone's interaction with the twins is a problem.

It's a far cry from the standoffish behavior Coolio displays when Carin arrives: Sleeping the day away and hanging out with his friends, he spends little time at home with the kids or helping with the household duties. And when it comes time to implement her own set of house rules, Mimi discovers that Coolio is less than quick to accept her terms.
