Currents Management has expanded its roster with contestants from popular unscripted shows and hired JT Wolkiewicz as part of their growth strategy.
On September 8, 2026, Currents Management officially announced the signing of several contestants from notable unscripted television programs, including Love Is Blind and The Bachelorette. This development was reported by Deadline and signifies a strategic growth for Currents as they expand their talent roster.
The new additions include well-known personalities such as Giannina Gibelli from Love Is Blind, Blake Horstmann from The Bachelorette, and Blake McGrath from Dancing with the Stars. Additionally, lifestyle influencer Taylor McGrath and comedians Eric D'Alessandro, Kevin Spies (also known as Grill Guy), Rob and Ari Slone (from Dove Clubb), and Erik Naggy have also joined the management firm. This move marks a significant shift for Currents as they strengthen their unscripted talent division, adding depth to their focus on both performance and lifestyle content.
In conjunction with these signings, Currents Management has brought on board JT Wolkiewicz, a seasoned professional with extensive experience in unscripted television and digital media. Previously on an independent management roster, Wolkiewicz will now work to build both the unscripted and digital talent divisions at Currents.
Cameron Ajdari, co-founder and CEO of Currents, expressed enthusiasm about the caliber of talent being integrated into the firm. He emphasized that Currents focuses on the intersection of digital media and traditional entertainment, positioning them uniquely in a rapidly changing industry landscape.
This latest expansion highlights the growing trend of unscripted talent shifting to management firms and emphasizes Currents’ commitment to incorporating diverse media skills into their portfolio. D'Alessandro’s transition from WME to Currents illustrates a change in how comedic talent is navigating their careers, moving increasingly toward digital platforms rather than waiting for traditional Hollywood avenues.
Currents Management aims to help its talents cultivate their digital presence and transform fan engagement into stable entertainment careers, with ongoing support in various formats such as podcasts, touring, and publishing. The agency has expressed particular interest in the potential of their comedy roster, responding to an evolving industry dynamic where comedians are creating their own paths via social media.
The agency has previously worked with a variety of talents who have carved out successful careers following their appearances on reality shows. Notably, Gibelli expanded her brand post-Love Is Blind, and this new array of talent could similarly leverage their platforms to increase visibility and engagement.
Currents Management already boasts a roster that includes a range of up-and-coming influencers and established personalities like Alexandra Madison and Jon Bouffard, demonstrating the firm’s growing prominence within the entertainment industry.
The signing of these unscripted stars and the appointment of JT Wolkiewicz signals a deliberate strategy by Currents Management to solidify its presence in the competitive landscape of talent management. By focusing on both traditional entertainment and digital creators, Currents seeks to harness the unique skills of its diverse roster, fostering growth that aligns with current media consumption trends. This strategic move could enhance the career trajectories of their talents while positioning Currents as a key player at the intersection of digital and traditional platforms.
