We get to see our favorite celebrities in true form again on Punk’d. 

Video will return here when scrolled back into view

The show is getting a reboot and will now air on BET every Tuesday at 10:30 p.m. 

Instead of Ashton Kutcher, comedians King Bach and DeStorm Powers will be the ones setting up crazy situations for celebrities to react to. 

They’ve already punked their first viewers. Viewers were lured to the site Tuesday with a headline saying that BET was bringing back Uncut, the raunchy show that showed music videos with half-naked women dancing around to crude songs. When viewers got to the page, they instead were met with a video promoting Punk’d. Check out a preview of Chris Brown getting punked below.
