Next Gen NYC seems like it will be the perfect summer show, especially for fans of Ariana Biermann.

Riley Burruss is the daughter of legendary musician and former RHOA star Kandi Burruss, and she's not new to New York City. Riley attended New York University and landed high-profile internships around the city. She and Ariana are childhood best friends, and audiences will likely watch Riley juggle her friendships with her career ambition on the new Bravo show.
Next Gen NYC will feature another NYU grad, Emira D'Spain. Emira will be a new face on Bravo, although some viewers may recognize her from her modeling work. She was the first Black transgender woman to model for Victoria's Secret and was previously the beauty director for Paper Magazine.
