"Young Hollywood is one of the world's largest independent producers of exclusive premium celebrity video programming with an unparalleled track record for discovering the next generation of Hollywood stars and we're delighted to have secured this first look deal with them," said Hayley Dickson, Vice President of Acquisitions & Development at FremantleMedia. "It signifies FremantleMedia International’s on-going commitment to working with the very best content producers on both traditional and non-traditional platforms and enriches our existing catalogue with a unique approach to celebrity that looks beyond gossip to reveal an authentic individual."
