LOS ANGELES — Noted queer content creators Vanniall and Austin Spears are competing in the second season of OutTV's reality show "Hot Haus."
Hosted by Tiffany "New York" Pollard, the show also features fellow competitors Cleo Mercury, Sin Salva, Delicious Gucci, Alicia Goku and Giovanni V.
"The show is a celebration of queer sexuality, featuring established adult performers competing for the title of the Next Queer Sex Symbol and a $25,000 cash prize from industry sponsor Jerkmate," a rep said.
Vanniall enthused about being selected to compete.
"Being picked to compete on the second season of Hot Haus is already an amazing honor, knowing how hard the first season contestants worked and the level of experience and creativity among the other people cast," she said. "In today’s rising sex-negative and anti-trans climate, it’s more important than ever for us to have spaces to celebrate our sexuality and show what trans joy is capable of."
Spears echoed Vanniall.
"It’s so exciting to be sharing our season of Hot Haus with the world," he said. "As queer and trans sex workers, it’s rare that we get the opportunity to work on a show that’s so invested in us telling our own stories."
The first episode premieres Thursday, Mar. 23 on OutTV.
