VIDEOS New Maci Bookout announcement, Being Maci preview clip

This Sunday will mark the return of Teen Mom Maci Bookout (and more importantly the return of Bentley Edwards!) to the small screen as MTV airs a one-hour “Being Maci” special which will catch fans up on everything that has been happening in the lives of Maci, Bentley and Ryan Edwards. (You can read more about the special in the MTV press release here.)

MTV just released a great deleted scene from the special in which Ryan and his parents have a little fun with an easily excited Bentley by having his Elf on the Shelf do a little fishing for goldfish in a rather unexpected fishing hole:

Bentley yelling “C’mere Mimi!” brought such a huge smile to my face. 🙂 It’s going to be so much fun seeing him on TV again, this time a bit older and a bit more verbose. Actually, I think the special (and eventual spin-off series) might should have been titled differently…

In addition to Bentley, the clip also featured some of my other favorite Teen Mom stars: Ryan’s parents (famous for their therapeutically productive dining room table sessions) and his girlfriend Dalis Connell! (*SPOILER ALERT* Sadly, “Being Maci” will reportedly feature Dalis and Ryan’s break up, which happened towards the end of last year.)

In addition to the “Being Maci” deleted scene, MTV also shared a new promotional clip from Maci in which she announces she will be doing the Teen Mom 3 after-show interviews for MTV.com:

“Hi everyone. It’s me, Maci Bookout,” she says in the clip, “and I will be hosting the Teen Mom 3 after shows, so be sure to join me and the cast at MTV.com immediately following the premiere. See you there!”

The exposure brought on by the “Being Maci” special and her doing the Teen Mom 3 after-show interviews may be the reason that we have some more Maci Bookout updates. Number one, she has just completely revamped her website at MaciBookout.com with a whole new look by Ink and Label out of Canada, so be sure to check it out for updates on Maci Bookout’s upcoming appearances, photos of her and Bentley, and links to all of her social media accounts.

Here’s a screen cap of the new-look front page:

Also, Maci just did her second podcast with our friends over at Kill Your Radio. During her interview Maci tells the guys about her new special on MTV, the TRUE status of her relationship with Ryan, and has a fun time playing a game with the fellers! Check it out — the Maci interview starts right around the 57:30 mark:

(You can listen to Maci’s first interview with Kill Your Radio here.)

OK, well that’s about all the Maci Bookout news we have for you at this point. Be sure to tune in to “Being Maci” “Being Bentley” Sunday, August 18 at 10/9c on MTV, during which Maci will be taking over the @MTV Twitter account and live tweeting with fans! Then catch Maci doing the Teen Mom 3 after-show interviews on MTV.com immediately after the new episodes air beginning Monday, August 26.
