I Kissed a Girl was announced on 4 June 2023, prior to the airing of the final episode of I Kissed a Boy. Dannii Minogue was confirmed as the host, with Charley Marlowe narrating. Following what was considered to be a successful first series that aired in 2024, it was confirmed that the BBC had renewed I Kissed a Girl for a second and final series. They cited budget cuts as a reason for the cancellation. The second series aired from June 2026.
Format
The series follows ten single sapphic women who are matched up and meet for the first time "...with a kiss. No small talk. No swiping on the apps. Just one kiss that could be the start of many". Like I Kissed a Boy, the show is set in an Italian country house called the "Masseria". Prior to the show the contestants are matched, based on what they're looking for in a partner. After meeting their match for the first time with a kiss, the women are encouraged to get to know their new partners and try out their relationship.
