OXYGEN'S "BAD GIRLS CLUB: NEW ORLEANS" MOVES TO A NEW DATE PREMIERING ON AUGUST 1 AT 9PM ET/PT

NEW YORK - June 30, 2011 - Season seven of Oxygen's fan favorite original series, "Bad Girls Club," moves to a new date and takes on an all new city on August 1 at 9pm ET/PT with a hot new cast and a spicy New Orleans location. How long before these seven feisty ladies begin to pick sides and jockey for position within the house?

In the premiere episode, alliances quickly form among the housemates before they've even unpacked their bags. At home with the New Orleans lifestyle, Judi makes it be known that she is Creole and down with Voodoo, which doesn't exactly win over her roommates. As it quickly becomes six against one, will the girls be able to put aside their differences for a little peace in the house?

"Bad Girls Club" brings high-intensity to a new level with a cast of young, bold, outrageous and endlessly entertaining women as they jockey for position as the head girl in charge. Each claiming to be the ultimate "bad girl," can they put aside their differences and live together peacefully in a New Orleans mansion - or will chaos rule?

This season, "Bad Girls" return to OxygenLive.com where fans will be able to interact with the girls on OxygenLive via Twitter (#BigBadEasy) and Facebook.

Jon Murray, Gil Goldschein and Glenn Carranos serve as executive producers of "Bad Girls Club" for Bunim-Murray Productions.
