Why Can’t I Be You? is an MTV reality show in which people get to step into the lives of others whom they wish to be like. The series is hosted by Nick Zano and centers around the premise of an individual coming forward with the goal of being more like someone else. The person whom the individual desires to be more like is offered $1,000 to reform the individual, making him more like him or herself over the course of forty-eight hours. Video coverage of the two days illustrates the change. The show ends with the two people meeting once more with Zano and discussing the transformation. The theme song to this show is provided by the band Locksley.
