Lauren Alaina To Appear On ‘Beyond The Edge’ Reality Series

Country artists Lauren Alaina and Craig Morgan are set to compete in a new reality television series. Beyond The Edge will throw nine celebrities deep into the jungles of Panama in the name of charity.  

In addition, the show will feature Super Bowl MVP Ray Lewis, NBA champion Metta World Peace, supermodel Paulina Porizkova, NFL legend Mike Singletary, Fuller House actress Jodie Sweetin and television personalities Colton Underwood (The Bachelor) and Eboni K. Williams (The Real Housewives of New York City).

For two weeks, the celebrities will see if they have the grit to withstand torrential downpours, scorching heat and deadly wildlife while living in the exotic Panama jungle. There won’t be any judges or eliminations – instead, each celebrity must rely on their inner fortitude, physical ability, and courage, and have faith in their teammates to endure in the wild.

For each day they last, and every gruelling adventure challenge they win with their team, the celebrities will raise more money for their charities. If a player reaches their breaking point, they can ring a bell to signal that they are ready to go home. At the end of the 14 days, the top two earners will go head-to-head in one final adventure, to see who can become the Beyond The Edge champion and take home the most money for their charity.

Executive producer Greg Goldman said, “Beyond The Edge is the most extreme celebrity format ever attempted. The day before we started principal photography, all of the producers looked at each other with the sinking feeling that this celebrity cast might see where they were living for up to two weeks – the harsh jungles of Panama – and just bolt. To the contrary, we were amazed by how these icons pushed themselves to their breaking points, showing incredible mental fortitude and physical tenacity. And all for an incredible cause: to raise money for charities that are near and dear to their hearts.”

For her chosen charity, Alaina has selected the Next Door, an organisation dedicated to helping women recover from substance abuse and mental health issues. Morgan will be playing for Operation Finally Home, a non-profit building and modifying homes for veterans and first responders.

Beyond The Edge will premiere on Wednesday, March 16 in the United States, and will be available to stream on demand on Paramount+. It’s unclear if that’ll include Australia just yet.
