She’s renowned for her contagious laugh and eccentric attitude, and it’s a real bummer that she’s leaving. But fans have been waiting to hear who would take her spot. The wait is over, as MTV has formally announced her successor!
The New Face of “Ridiculousness”
Taking the front stage as the new permanent co-host of “Ridiculousness” is none other than TV personality and actress Sterling “Steelo” Brim’s long-time friend and collaborator Lauren “Lolo” Wood. Best recognized as a model, fitness trainer, and actress, Lolo is going to give the aging television program a new, modern edge.
The path Lauren “Lolo” Wood took to get to “Ridiculousness” is just inspirational. The 31-year-old actress has appeared on MTV before, particularly on Nick Cannon’s series “Wild ‘N’ Out.”
She has also gained popularity on social media for her workout videos and vlogs about motherhood and traveling. She is now prepared to challenge herself to make viewers laugh alongside Steelo Brim and host Rob Dyrdek on “Ridiculousness.”
MTV’s choice to add Wood to the ensemble of “Ridiculousness” is a smart move. “Ridiculousness” has been on the air since 2011, and any show that’s been around that long can get stale. Wood is a fresh talent, and she can definitely give the show a modern edge while preserving the distinct appeal that made it popular over a decade ago.
Lolo is the ideal fit for the program because of her vivid personality and acting background. She’s also notoriously funny, in addition to being a pretty face.
With Chanel West Coast’s departure, an era of “Ridiculousness” has come to an end. Chanel has been a fan favorite since the show debuted in 2011 because of her contagious laughter and clever commentary. Her style and character shaped the show to be what it is now.
Though Chanel is now pursuing other endeavors, including her singing career and new TV projects, her influence on “Ridiculousness” will always be felt.
What To Expect From Lauren “Lolo” Wood
Fans of “Ridiculousness” can expect Lauren “Lolo” Wood to add her own unique touch to the show. Wood, who is known for her fast wit and keen sense of humor, is probably going to bring fresh levels of entertainment value. Her relationship with Steelo and Rob is already clear-cut, suggesting seamless and funny transitions when she enters her new role on the show.

In a recent X post, the “Ridiculousness” team made Lolo’s addition to the cast official with a heartfelt clip from the show inviting her to be a permanent host.
Having Lolo on board, “Ridiculousness” is likely to stay one of MTV’s most-watched series. Her arrival heralds a new chapter and excites fans about the renewed vitality she will give the show!
Fans can catch new episodes of “Ridiculousness” on Sundays at 8:00 pm on MTC.
