Who’s that Girl, an online TV show produced by Ideal Minds Productions faces controversy. Who’s that Girl is being hosted by no other than Johnny M. who visits several local clubs and looks for any girl he wants to kiss.

Johnny M.,who ,who claims to be just an average looking guy, kisses a girl if and only if the girl permits him to do so. The idea here is that Johnny M. wants to prove that you don't have to be a famous showbiz personality to kiss a woman you like. So basically, it showcases women who engaged in torrid kissing with Johnny M. and other male production members.
