A new series premiering on MTV this month will attempt to matchmake eligible reality TV stars with lookalikes of their celebrity crush, in what may very well be the most random dating show concept to hit the airwaves.
MTV’s first look at Game of Clones begs the question, “If you found seven identical singles, could you find your one and clone-ly?”
(The Ashley will give you a moment to roll your eyes…)
Anyway, the series will feature familiar faces from the MTV reality TV world, each of whom will date seven “exact lookalikes of their celeb crush” in the hopes of finding their perfect match.
“Through compatibility tests, challenges and more, each clone will strive to stand out from the rest during this radical dating experience,” MTV’s show synopsis reads. “The race is on to find their one and clone-ly. Hello, dolly(s)!” (That’s a reference to Dolly, a sheep cloned in 1996 that was the first mammal to be cloned, by the way…)
While we attempt to block that cringe-worthy play on words from our minds, here’s a look at the reality stars hoping to find love (aka a few more minutes of fame) on the show:
Kailyn Lowry, Teen Mom 2
Cara Maria Sorbello, The Challenge: War of the Worlds
Kam Williams, The Challenge: War of the Worlds
Leroy Garrett, The Challenge: Dirty 30
Nicole Zanatta, The Challenge: Vendettas
Derrick Henry, The Challenge: Final Reckoning
DJ Pauly D, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation
(Given the announcement of Pauly and Vinny Guadagnino’s new joint dating show, Double Shot at Love With DJ Pauly D & Vinny, it’s safe to assume things didn’t pan out between Pauly and his “dolly.”)
MTV’s ‘Game of Clones’ will premiere with back-to-back episodes on Thursday, February 21. Check out the first look below!

I thought Cara Maria was with Paulie from Big Brother??
So… is it even possible we can have the cowardly lion from The Wizard of Oz??? if not, who would Kail clone be?
I heard of this show already and honestly……WHY?! It’s not all in the looks, all 7 of them can have awful personalities!
Sounds terrible, seriously.
The preview looks dumb. I feel sorry for the ones that will be stuck with Kail. I guess she’ll do anything thing for money.
The preview editing is not good. lol. Glad to see she is out there actually doing something to try and make $ (let’s not bash that)…too bad we can’t say that for Jenelles spouse.
At least she’s out there trying to bring $ in unlike some of the others on her show…y’all know who.
So Kail is going to date 7 guys on this show? I mean, does she really need 7 more kids?
Ummm, this makes no sense. I get you apparently don’t care for her but come on.
The thought of Kail The Pig in the same room with my beloved Pauly D makes me sick.
Enough with the body shaming already. There are people who commit suicide over bullying like this, it needs to STOP!
100% agree!!! Calling someone a pig or fat is uncalled for.
It’s not about how she looks. It’s about the fact that she’s a pig.
If you think pauly d is a good enough man for you to call beloved, you must have very low standards
I will watch the first episode, see how it is, don’t got much to do in my life
You do know they won’t be together in the same episode, right?! Both of them will look for “clones” to date, not each other!
