Akon is set to add television producer to his resume - he's launching a reality show starring his two brothers. The Lonely hitmaker came up with the idea for the show - which follows his brothers' as they parade around town "posing" as the singer - after seeing fans' reactions whenever they go out in their hometown of Atlanta, Georgia, reports AllHipHop.com.
He says, "I'm producing a reality TV called My Brother's Keeper. What it is, I have two of my brothers, and if you see them they look exactly like me. Whenever I'm not in Atlanta, they go out posing as me and everyone believes it's actually me. It's so crazy, because everyone seriously believes it's me.
They are going around getting VIP treatment, girls, free food at restaurants, free everything and everybody is falling for it. It's a real life thing, which has got really out of hand in Atlanta, so I decided to take the situation and make it into my advantage by making a reality TV show out of it.
They get my life, all the perks without having to put in all the hard work I do.
I'm constantly working so I can't live it, but they are out there living it."
