FORMER Southend Big Brother contestant Mario Mugan is hoping soon to be back on TV.

Mugan appeared on the show in 2010 and is taking part in filming for a new reality show.

Makers of the programme, Almost: Six Lives, Six Stories and Six Destinies, say it follows the lives of six “diamonds in the rough” as they attempt to make a name for themselves in the world of entertainment.

A preview clip of the show has been posted on the Youtube website and has been watched 30,000 times in less than a week.

The show’s contestants are now filming episodes of the show, which the makers say will be screened next April, though they have not said on which channel it might appear.

The fashion designer said; “Almost is amazing. It’s a firework of different colours.

“You have the story of six individuals who are hungry with their talent, wanting to make a name for themselves in the entertainment industry.

“We are different characters, all with very different personalities.

“The world had better brace itself.

I am one designer who is a born genius with a touch of madness. I mean, look at Van Gogh.

“Almost is truly made for me and I’m made for Almost.

“It was justamatter of time before some lucky show snapped me up again. I bring the cutting comments and edgy designs.

“I know the audience will probably see me as a villain. I’m not going to coddle the other fame zombies on this show. It is time for ‘Mario the Fashion Elite’ and no one is going to stop me.”
