For any of the ladies and gentlemen interested in movies like “Magic Mike” or the famously known Chippendale dancers, they will have plenty to look forward to in the near future.
In a rather risque form of reality television, Levittown local Keith Webb will be appearing on E! network’s newest reality movie event “Men of the Strip”.

The 26-year-old and 2007 Harry S. Truman High School graduate will be in the two-hour reality movie chronicling his and six other’s journey through the rigorous process of putting on one of the sexiest, all-male dancer shows on the Las Vegas strip.
“Men of the Strip” was created by Jeff Timmons, who is best known for his part in the pop and R&B band known as 98 Degrees.
According to an interview by rumorfix.com, Timmons’ main idea for the show was to make a new all-male show but make it fresher and cooler.

With a premise in mind, Timmons signed on critically-acclaimed choreographer Glenn Packard and former UFC fighter “Money Mike” Foland to help create the show and behind the scenes reality movie.
When describing the show to rumorfix.com, Timmons said “It’s sort of like “Magic Mike” and “Sex and the City”.”

In an interview with LevittownNow.com, Webb said that some of his desire to audition for the show stemmed partly from opportunity and partly from his personal interest of male-dancing and acting.
“[Male-dancing] is becoming mainstream with ‘Magic Mike’ so why not audition?” He said were his thoughts when trying out for the show in New York.
But one thing Webb made clear in his interview was his love for acting and performance, which all started in his senior year in high school.

Webb says throughout most of his high school career, he was a self-proclaimed sports buff. But around his senior year in high school, the glamour of being a jock didn’t seem to have as much luster.
It was then that Webb found his new love for acting. He auditioned for Truman’s 2007 production of “Aida” and fell in love with acting and musical theatre.

He held onto that dream and moved out to New York in 2013. It was there he started booking acting deals, which included appearances in commercials, MTV, and of course, “Men of the Strip”.
Webb, who is a self-proclaimed “reality junkie”, said he really enjoyed being on the show. His absolute favorite part was going in for the confessionals.

“It’s like talking to your best friend,” Webb said about the tell-all aspect of the show.
When asked about the show in Las Vegas, Webb said that he wishes to continue to pursue acting by getting into television and film.

Until then, Webb and his fellow dancers and coaches will be showing everyone the glamorous, tumultuous and mysterious slice of life that belongs to the male-dancer on June 1 at 10:00 p.m on E! network.
