Cribs debuted in 2000. Past seasons are on MTV.com and Paramount Plus.
“Cribs didn’t simply introduce the celebreality genre, it created a blueprint for how we engage on social media,” said Nina L. Diaz, president of content and chief creative officer, MTV Entertainment Group. “We are thrilled to usher in a new era of this iconic franchise for audiences around the world.”
Outside of the U.S., MTV is premiering season two of the international edition of Cribs across its linear channels. Kenya Moore, Tyson Fury and The Sharp Twins are some of the overseas celebs showing off their homes.
