Bow Wow new co-host of 106 & Park

BET’s 106 & Park has named rapper/actor Bow Wow as the show’s co-host. Bow Wow made his debut appearance on the show with three other co-hosts. The other three co-hosts competed in a nationwide search for a spot to host on 106 & Park. Bow Wow was already named Mr. 106 & Park for making the most guest appearances on the show, and now his spot as the show’s host will officially make him just that. Bow Wow and 106 & Park look to have a great future ahead.

“I am very excited to take on this new journey in my career with BET. I’m all about branding myself and not just in music, but in TV and movies,” said Bow Wow of his new position. “Everyone always wants to compare me to the Fresh Prince, well now they can call me the Fresh Prince of ‘106 & Park.’ Get ready for a whole new world.”
