New Scripted Show About Fictonal LA Basketball Team’s Cheerleaders Headed To VH1

Word is that VH1 has greenlit another scripted show and this one will center on the cheerleaders or dance team of a professional basketball franchise.

“Bounce” will center on the fictional L.A. devils and their dance team, the Devil Girls; specifically, one young lady who dreams of being a part of the Devil Girls (following in her disapproving mother’s foosteps), and works her way onto the team, only to learn just how cut-throat and competitive it is.

Sanaa Hamri is the director, she also directed the basketball themed film Just Wright and a pilot is scheduled to shoot in March. I think they should reach out to Basketball Wives Royce Reed. She’s into acting, she used to dance for the Heat and Magic. Seems like a natural fit! And if new Basketball Wives cast member Kesha Nichols can act, throw her in there too. She used to dance for the Nets. Leverage your properties VH1…. Oh and hire me cause clearly, I ROCK!
