Alyssa Edwards‘ life will be documented across Alyssa Raw; Yuhua Hamasaki will give viewers tips on how to construct a garment from start to finish on her six-part Sew What, and season 10 alums Asia O’Hara and Kameron Michaels will immerse themselves in zany scenario (in the vein of The Simple Life) in Can Do Queens.
