1 Girl 5 Gays, sometimes abbreviated as 1g5g, is a Canadian talk show that premiered on October 14, 2009 on MTV Canada. In October 2010, gay-interest sister network Logo picked up the program and started airing it in the United States. On August 9, 2012, it was announced on their Facebook page that 1 Girl 5 Gays was renewed for a fourth season. Aliya Jasmine Sovani was the host for the first three seasons and part of the fourth. Lauren Collins, also known as Paige Michalchuk on her role in Degrassi, replaced Sovani as the host. Out Magazine described the show as containing "frank, often curse-laced discussions about bareback sex, masturbation and one-night stands", and analogised it with "The View meets Dr. Ruth, only with hot gay men instead of menopausal madams".
