No gay "Bromance" for Brody Jenner?

Above you can see the trailer for the new reality competition Bromance, which premieres on MTV on December 29th. The Hills star Brody Jenner is looking for a new "bro" to add to his "posse" (which includes someone named Sleazy T), and nine guys will compete to see who will be added to his inner circle.

No, this isn't a joke. The man himself was was recently interviewed about the show, and discussed the emotional moments:

"I did this whole sit-down with these guys, which we called Broprah," Jenner tells me. "I was sitting around and would say, 'OK, now tell me about...' and then all of a sudden it got to be like, 'Whoa!' We're uncovering some deep stuff. These big, grown guys are sitting around crying over being friends with a dude."

Oh dear God. Unfortunately, any hopes of a gay bromance are gone as Brody revealed that the lone gay competitor dropped out before the competition even began:

There is a token gay guy among the competitors, Michael, but the poor sap never even made it to the first elimination round. In the premiere episode, airing Dec. 29, Michael is shown packing his bags and leaving the frat house (where else do you think they would live?) shortly after filming. He explained to Jenner he was disappointed to find that Bromance was more Animal House than The Hills.

"He was really excited about being on the show," Sleazy T says of Michael. "He got really groomed." “He was waxed and all ready to go,” Jenner says, “but he thought he was going to meet Lauren Conrad."

Wow ... and I thought that auction winner who was creeping around Kathy Griffin's house looking for her secret stash of IPODs on My Life On the D-List was a low point in gay reality tv.

So, are you planning to watch Bromance, and if so ... why?
