NEW SERIES FROM MGM'S BIG FISH ENTERTAINMENT BASED ON THE HIT INTERNATIONAL FORMAT IS HOSTED BY "YOUNGER'S" NICO TORTORELLA AND NICOLE "SNOOKI" POLIZZI

NEW YORK, NY (September 26, 2018) - MTV today announced that the new series "How Far Is Tattoo Far? (formerly known as "Just Tattoo Of Us")," hosted by "Younger's" Nico Tortorella and "Jersey Shore Family Vacation's" Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, will premiere on Thursday, October 11th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT following an all-new episode of "Jersey Shore Family Vacation." Produced by Big Fish Entertainment, an MGM Company, the U.S. series will also debut on MTV's international channels in nearly 180 countries around the world beginning in October.

Based on the hit MTV international format "Just Tattoo of Us," "How Far Is Tattoo Far?" puts relationships through the ultimate test of trust by asking pairs of friends, family members and couples to design tattoos for one another that won't be revealed until after they've been permanently inked.

Hosted by Tortorella and Polizzi, and with the help of some of the most creative and talented tattoo artists in the industry, the series will follow the blindfolded duos as they learn the stories behind the tattoo and unveil the designs unknowingly selected for them.

Guest duos include "Jersey Shore Family Vacation's" Angelina Pivarnick and Chris Larangeira, "Floribama Shore's" Nilsa Prowant and Aimee Hall and Cara Maria Sorbello and Paulie Calafiore from MTV's "The Challenge."
