Is Fade Street Coming Back? Cici Cavanagh Reveals All!

Is there any love for Fade Street?

Everyone has been dying to know if Fade Street will be back on our screens anytime soon, and now one if it's stars, Cici Cavanagh is finally putting the rumours to rest.

The stunning DJ and model has revealed that Fade Street is "unlikely" to return,  but she has claimed that the four stars of the series incuding Danielle Robinson, Louise Johnston and Vogue Williams, are set to make a new show on a different TV station!

Cici told me that she and the rest of the nation really want to find out if a second season is going ahead: "We are genuinely dying to know. but right now it doesn't look likely."


Cici is quickly becoming Dublin's newest fashionista!

The funky blonde explained that despite massive ratings, RTE aren't willing to give the show another chance. That sounds insane right? Well Cici doesn't understand it either:
"At the end of the day it's not down to the people. It is the most watched show on RTE Player in history. They've even re-released it and put it back on the RTE Player for the summer. To think that RTE would put it back on because it is so popular, but not give us a second series is completely bizarre." 
"There's possibly people in RTE, who are in charge of commissioning the shows, who didn't like it. When it comes down to it that really is the issue."

But don't worry all you Fade Street addicts out there, Cici (20) says that all the girls are set to make a new show. Their production company, Straywave Media, which also produces the amazing Celebrity Salon, are fighting to keep the four young girls together.


Cici says the girls WILL be back, but with a new show!

The Palmerstown native says all four girls will be back on Irish television again, but not on RTE:
"There's a possibility that Fade Street itself will never come back but I definitely believe that all of us will be back doing something similar together. Maybe the concept of Fade Street won't come back but I'm nearly 100% sure that we'll all be involved in something similar that will come out in the future. It definitely wouldn't be with another production company. More so, it might be another TV station other than RTE."

But this new reality series may not be that similar to the previous series. The tiny-waisted model admitted that this time round she and the girls would like their show to focus on parts of their lives that weren't fully explored during Fade Street.

While RTE were more concerned with showing the ins and outs of their personal lives, Cici says they would like something different with their new show:
"I would want them to focus in on the parts of our lives that we actually wanted to show. All four of us are such busy, proactive people that when Fade Street was filming they were only focusing on one or two aspects of our lives."
Cici is currently Djing with The Beauty Spot

Meanwhile the blonde, who is currently on tour Djing with The Beauty Spot, claimed that she, Louise, Vogue and Dani would never agree to do a show similar to 'Geordie Shore'. The hit UK replica of MTV's 'Jersey Shore' is a massive success and shows young people getting drunk, having affairs and fighting in public.

When asked if maybe Fade Street viewers wanted to see that side to the girls, Cici said that will never happen:
"Maybe people were let down that we weren't as debolturous on the show, but none of us are prepared to behave in a certain way. If that came up we wouldn't do it, we don't want to make complete shows of ourselves."
