NFL Player Chad Ochocinco Lands Dating Show With VH1
By Allen Starbury ♦ Published 03/11/2010

Chad OchocincoCincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco is really upping his reality TV resume. He's already landed a spot on the upcoming season of "Dancing With The Stars", and now, he'll be trying to a new woman in a dating show on VH1.

VH1 announced this week that #85 has landed his own dating show called "The Tournament," in which the NFL player will find 85 women interested in dating him.

During the first of 10 episodes of the show, Ochocinco will narrow down the contestants to 16 -- four from each region of the country.

The elimination is done similar to the NCAA's March Madness bracket, where eventually, the final date will be split between two women before he chooses a winner.

"Ochocinco is one of the most electrifying individuals in sports today. His bigger-than-life personality -- on- and off-the-field and his notorious skills as a social networker, connecting daily with his fans -- makes him a perfect fit for VH1," Jeff Olde, Executive Vice President of VH1, said in a statement.

"This show will not only give viewers a look inside his professional life, but also reveal his softer more romantic side when playing a very different kind of game."

At press time, it was unknown when "The Tournament" would premiere.

Until then, you can catch Ochocinco on ABC's "Dancing With The Stars," which will kick off on March 22nd.
