K-Ci & JoJo 'Come Clean' on New Series Premiering Tonight

Embattled R&B singers Cedric "K-Ci" and Joel "JoJo" Hailey premiere their new reality series 'Come Clean' tonight (Oct. 19) on TV One. The show follows the duo through an intense, 35-day alcohol and substance abuse program that included counseling, living together and even undergoing blood transfusions in order to begin the sobriety process. Though the episodes were filmed back in April, the brothers admitted in a press conference that there are no easy solutions; they're still living by the one-day-at-a-time philosophy and looking to loved ones for support.

"I've been talking to my pastor every day," K-Ci admitted. "I had to talk to somebody to help keep me straight. This is not an easy road. When you've done something for a long time, like we have, you can't go through this by yourself. People always ask me, 'K-Ci, how long have you been sober?' If I say 30 days or a year, that's a lie. I say, 'Look, every day I wake up, I thank God and I say every day is the first day of my sobriety."

"After the cameras stopped," explained JoJo, "I had to go home to my wife and she's a beast when it comes to health and when it comes to doing something right, and I thank God for my wife. Lights, camera, action, off! Hello, honey!"

"We also had to call mama and daddy," added K-Ci.

"Every day, that's a must," agreed his brother.

K-Ci and JoJo will begin performing limited live dates in November and plan to add more in December and the new year. Asked about when some new music might be expected, JoJo told a reporter, "I'll make you a promise. As soon as this interview is over, let's get in the studio today."

Ok. I just wanted to say that I just took my first trip from east (WVa.) to the west (hollywood). I was staying at the same hotel as K-Ci.
I didn't know who he was but he looked cool he was very nice to my son (13). So I ask him who he was. He told me K-Ci. I guess I looked like I didn't know who he was so he said K-Ci & Jojo. Anyways I ask him if I could have a photo he said " please, do". So I took my photo's with my son and I.
He was one of the nicest person's I have ever ran into. He was so cool.
When I got home I looked him up on the computer. OMG.
The most wonederful songs I have ever heard. We taked for a min. but I wish I had knew then that he could sing like nothing I have evr heard before. I would have liked to talked to him more.
This man has something that only God can give.

N.E., Boys2Men, Jodeci, were my favorite groups when I was a teen, I hope K-Ci and JoJo will smooth things out long enough to at least put on a show in Boston!
