Move over, Kardashians. The man who brought the world American flag grills, sneakers with wings on them and “Jeah” is ready to bring his own brand of brainless beauty to the E! network.
After rumors of a reality series swirled in the weeks after the Olympics, the star will be getting his own show on the network, “What Would Ryan Lochte Do?”
Television writers screened early clips at the TCAs in Los Angeles on Monday.
So what should fans expect? “Pretty much, they follow me on my normal day, just training, doing my own fashion line,” he said back in August. “It’s real. It’s not fake or anything like that.”
But that was never really a concern, considering how Lochte’s past attempts at “acting” have gone. After filming a stint on “90210,” the swimmer confessed, “Memorizing lines, and trying to like, say them and still like, do movement and all that, that was hard.”
But some of his unscripted quotes will live on even when we’ve forgotten what he looks like in a Speedo. Lochte classics include: “’What defines me? Ryan Lochte”, “Pain is temporarily but pride last forever,” and Page Six’s personal favorite, ‘”What I was always good at was letting things go through one ear and out the other.”
