Russell Simmons’ All Def Digital Launches New Series About Three Friends All Named Kelly

All Def Digital (ADD) has a new web series showcasing the craziness of what it means to be a single woman in the modern age. The digital network, founded by businessman and entrepreneur Russell Simmons and centered on urban youth culture, has a new web series called The Kellys, which premiered on August 18, 2015.

In The Kellys, three Los Angeles women, all named Kelly, help each other deal with what a release calls “double standards, lame guys, and the highs and lows” of singleness (and most likely not any mass suicides). Each episode will find the Kellys addressing modern-day female problems like wearing comfortable shoes with dresses and drunk texting. The debut episode, for example, finds the three women discussing how to get over previous guys in their lives.

The Kellys stars Lourdes Gonzalez, star of the upcoming film She Wins, and Cynthia LuCiette, ADD’s host for its daily pop culture news segment The Drop. The third Kelly is played by Laila Odom, who has had roles in series like Bounce TV’s My Crazy Roommate and the upcoming flick Bikini Model Academy. Both Gonzalez and LuCiette wrote The Kellys, with LuCiette and Wesley “Wuz Good” Armstrong directing.

You can catch new episodes of The Kellys every Tuesday on All Def Digital’s YouTube channel.
