Meet the sexually fluid cast of MTV’s Are You The One? Season 8

MTV’s popular hot bod dating competition reality series Are You The One? is returning on June 26. This time around, the odds of finding “perfect match” seem greatly diminished — because it could be ANY of the other contestants! In a first for a reality dating competition show, all of the cast members of Are You The One? Season 8 identify as sexually fluid!

“From coming out moments, to discovering sexual and gender identity, Are You The One? tells powerful stories about navigating relationships and finding love as a sexually fluid individual for the first time ever on a reality dating show,” MTV said, in a press release announcing the new season.

 
 

The sixteen singles will be heading to Hawaii in hopes of finding their “perfect match” and splitting a $1 million cash prize. More info on the show and the cast from the press release:

This season introduces Dr. Frankie, a relationship expert who works with the singles to help them become better daters and navigate between drama, poor choices and reoccurring patterns in relationships. Dr. Frankie also helps the singles identify current disaster-dating trends such as ghosting, benching and stashing, and tests them on their willingness to fall into these painful trends.

Host Terrence J. digs deeper with the cast than ever before, helping coach and guide them to tap into their true feelings and follow their hearts.

And here is Dr. Frankie, as well as all 16 cast members from Are You The One? Season 8 — including photos, brief bios, and Instagram links:
