Get It On! model and former Mr Gay NZ contestant Alby Waititi is set to hit the small screen as part of a new reality show following young Maori with big dreams on Australia’s Gold Coast. The GC is touted as Australasia’s less-trashy answer to Jersey Shore. Its cast is a collection of ‘Mozzies’, or Maori Aussies, trying to make it rich while living the good life in the party town. Waititi entered Mr Gay NZ in 2011, but lost out to eventual winner Aaron Comis, in a close race. Strangely, one of his uncles has told the Daily Post Waititi has “always been a ladies man”. However the show’s producers are promising “a shock revelation from one of the group about their sexuality,” as part of the storyline. “Personal trainer Alby Waititi also wants to make it big if only he were able to be left alone rather than having to be a confidant to all the girls on the show!” the promo notes for the series read. You can watch the trailer for The GC below.
