Not Your Typical Reality Show


A new reality show featuring the lives of four part time models is set to debut in April! You’re probably not that excited, right? I mean, let’s face it, we’ve all seen this premise one too many times.

But, what if I told you these models are all wheelchair users due to accidents or physical ailments? 

“Push Girls” will follow these four women through their daily lives. Gay Rosenthal, the show’s producer, also created "Little People Big World." In an article written by Sean Daly from the New York Post, Rosenthal explains that she believes "Little People Big World" helped others accept little people. One of the cast members explains that, although they are all in wheelchairs, the show is about so much more. It’s about their positive attitudes and ability to enjoy life.

I can’t wait for “Push Girls” to hit the air! I don’t see this being just like any other reality show. I think it will touch people’s lives and  give others a glimpse into the realities of wheelchair users, the ups and the downs. But, most importantly, I think it will break down barriers and show people that we are just like everyone else.
