A new Netflix show has people looking for love — with a twist.

Two contestants from North Carolina are among those competing on “Age of Attraction,” which is set to premiere Wednesday, March 11. On the dating show, singles won’t reveal their birthdates but instead “will build connections based purely on chemistry, compatibility, and an undeniable spark,” according to Netflix.

“In this new dating experiment, it simply does not matter how many candles were on your last birthday cake or how few wrinkles have formed on your forehead,” the streaming service wrote Wednesday, March 4 in a blog post. “Age is thrown out the window as singles search for their soulmates.

Here’s what to know about the North Carolina contestants and how to watch “Age of Attraction.”

Which NC contestants are on the show?

Of the 40 contestants seeking a partner on “Age of Attraction,” two of them have ties to North Carolina.

Tiffany Butler is a life coach living in Charlotte. She said appearing on the reality TV show was unforgettable and told her Instagram followers she’s “seriously considering hosting a watch party.”

“Tiffany is learning how to navigate life as a recent empty nester and she’d love nothing more than to share the rest of hers with someone special,” Netflix wrote, adding that she wants to find a man who’s respectful and full of trust.

Also competing is Isaiah Salter, a youth life coach who said he wants a real-life connection instead of a fling made for social media. He grew up in North Carolina and now lives in New York, according to Netflix and his Instagram page.

“Isaiah proudly calls himself a Southern boy at heart, and he has the hospitality skills to prove it,” the streaming service wrote. “When Isaiah isn’t soaking up the outdoors, he’s doing meaningful work with inner-city middle and high school students, helping them build emotional awareness and prioritize their mental well-being.”

Though we know details about these North Carolina contestants, we don’t know how old they are. Netflix said couples on the series — who range from 22 to 60 years old — will make a commitment to stay together before finding out their partner’s age.
