TLC to Premiere Two New VIRGIN DIARIES Specials This Summer, 2012

TLC has ordered two additional specials of its hit show VIRGIN DIARIES. Whether it's by choice or chance, both men and women, some well into their 30's and even 40's, are holding on to their virginity. VIRGIN DIARIES, which premiered in December 2011 to more than 1.3 million viewers, follows the lives of inexperienced individuals and couples as they go through the trials and tribulations of being a virgin in a sexually-charged culture. From a 34-year-old Mormon who lives in his parents' basement and brings his "Wing Mom" to bars to help him meet women, to a 29-year-old lesbian virgin who loves Star Wars and dodgeball, the newest specials of VIRGIN DIARIES will take a light-hearted look inside the lives of adult virgins as they prepare for the monumental moment that has eluded them for so many years.

The specials are set to air late this summer, 2012.

VIRGIN DIARIES is produced by ROAD TO AWE for TLC.
