Mun2's ‘The Chicas Project' Goes to Washington

Crash and Yasmin, the young stars of Mun2's highly rated reality show The Chicas Project, will take to the road for the series' fourth season.

Mun2Season four of Chicas will premiere on July 9 and culminate in Washington, D.C., where Crash and Yasmin will bring a message to the president of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute.

Over the course of 11 episodes, the show's stars and producers will travel cross-country collecting video footage of Latinos voicing their thoughts and concerns on topics running the gamut from immigration to politics, the economy and the environment. Armed with the interviews, the girls will present their findings on Capitol Hill during the Sept. 24 series finale.

Viewers can still expect plenty of non-activist entertainment throughout the itinerant season, including a ski lesson and a day of Mariachi tutoring in Los Angeles; rodeo and dating in Austin, Texas; and a photo shoot with a norteño band in Chicago.

To help promote the July 9 launch, Mun2 -- available in 30.6 million U.S. households -- has partnered with famous Hollywood landmark Pink's Hot Dogs and taco joint Joselitos for a taco vs. hot dog faceoff, in which Crash and Yasmin attempt to find out which food item Los Angeles prefers.

Crash, a rocker from L.A., will be manning a Pink Taco Truck, while Yasmin, originally from Queens, N.Y., will staff the hot dog truck to see who can most quickly give away all of the food in their vehicle.

Key sponsors for season four include Toyota, T-Mobile, Maybelline and In Style.
