    BBC teams up with a TikTok Megastar to launch the most honest dating show

    Have you ever dated someone only to discover 6 months later that they’re not the person you thought they were? Maybe you find out that they still text their ex, or that they’ve got terrible personal hygiene. Whatever it is, it’s only as the honeymoon period comes to an end and their behaviour starts to slip that you find out the real person you’re going out with!

    Date Me At My Worst is a daring dating experiment hosted by TikTok megastar Max Balegde.   A bunch of brave singles will go on a group date where they’ll show off their best side, and then reveal their worst side!

    Packed with revelations and wtf moments, yet always warm, uplifting and relentlessly entertaining, this is the world’s most honest dating show which sets out to test that if you like somebody at their worst then maybe you’ll love them at their best.

    Host Max Balegde said: It was a great experience working with BBC Studios, Joe and Final Straw Productions. I loved the format and I am so looking forward to the show coming to life.

    Joe Sugg, Founder of Final Straw Productions said : We’re really excited about this space, testing out formatted ideas online to get instant feedback from the audience to help shape formats into the best they can be. It’s a new collaborative way of creating content and working with and helping discover the future stars of tomorrow.

    Sumi Connock, Creative Director, Global Entertainment, BBC Studios said: “We are delighted to be working with the hugely talented Max Belegde and the brilliant creative team at Final Straw on this fresh & fun approach to dating”.

    Date Me At My Worst’s pilot episode 1 is available to watch on YouTube.
