I'm sorry, what on earth do you mean by "clearance to be a contestant"? That "Megan Wants a Millionaire" show has lower standards than your average rape porno. I doubt they even test them for STDs. The only real requirement is raging alcoholism. It's really no more seemly than watching those videos of bums fighting that the juggalos enjoy so much.
@6 I know those shows are full of drunk assholes. But I guess I always assumed that if you were going to be on one of those shitty "dating" shows, even if you were a trashy drunk, you'd at least have to be able to prove you don't have herpes or a history of criminal assault.
With the headline in mind, I read "Today TMZ is reporting that" in the hopes that the sentence would conclude with "they are mercifully ceasing operations and folding like a bad hand in poker," but no dice.
Not in a million years. This story IS, however, a surefire film script and I will bet money someone has already been paid to begin working on the script.
I used to cover reality TV for a genre-oriented entertainment magazine, like, five years ago or so, and let me tell you, If I couldn't come up with at least five felonies or misdemeanors reported for various assorted reality TV castmembers per month it was a slow cycle - AND someone was lying like crazy.
I would be VERY surprised if there were not other murders in the kitbags of those persons so desparate and fundamentally insane as to appear as a castmember in a reality TV show. Seriously, covering the blips and squawks of the bottom of the reality TV machine was like reading the police blotter, but sadly, not as written by Charles.
George Carlin once made a suggestion for a reality show where you give a schizophrenic all the drugs and guns he wants and then set him loose with a van in manhattan. Maniac on drugs, he called it.
Speaking of... remember how Top Chef used to ostensibly be about cooking? Welcome to Vegas. Don't bother with a Live Slog, unless it's to mock and rail.
1) you watch the show if you are able to characterize her as a brat
2) you calling other people chubby pejoritively when you yourself are chubby/fat is ridiculous
3) Anybody that wants to be on TV/famous is fucking weird, it's just that these ones don't have the benefit of scriptwriting and image management. need for approval and validation, much?
That's a chubby neck? Are you serious? She's hot, if you're going to nitpick on some imagined chubby neck when the rest of her looks like that you just sound like a hater.
And 2 people with questionable histories is hardly a big deal given the sheer amount of people who have been involved in reality TV over the past decade and a half.
Also, how chubby of a neck are we talking? Like slightly chubby or Kimora Lee Simmons chubby?
But yeah, I tried to watch that show and wow total brain cell kill
And I think it gives Kimora a run for her money...
