The long anticipated reality show that follows the life of young queer people is set to premier for season two.
Season two of Becoming comes back with a new cast of young queer people. The reality show will follow the cast member’s lives as they navigate and explore themes of their identities, and self acceptance. All of which will unfold while they live in a safe house called “House of Diamonds.
This is an intriguing concept, because as the saying goes, “there can only be one who can reign supreme in a household.” However, we have to wait and watch the show as it unfolds on Mzansi Magic on the 24th of February @21:30.
Get to know the new main cast members of the reality show, as follows:
