People who can't handle the spotlight tend to melt under it. Look at that lady on Britain's got talent (the ugly one that could sing). She totally collapsed because she couldn't take fame. These people were already on the fringe -- then they get put in front of cameras. Yeah, disaster. oh, I've seen one episode but I've read some of their news. It's really pathetic. I don't think either of them is particularly bright.Keith Wilcoxhttp://www.mekeliki.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274468050151789632.post-53371897036160639352009-09-09T11:15:06.864-07:002009-09-09T11:15:06.864-07:00Well how can folks with 8 kids afford mansions and...Well how can folks with 8 kids afford mansions and tummy tucks? :)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17337526409533575392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274468050151789632.post-77773503293921107742009-09-09T08:51:58.464-07:002009-09-09T08:51:58.464-07:00I agree 100%, Angie.

Being an overwhelmed new mom I was a little fascinated at how they did it all. But after a while it started to look like any other product-placement-packed reality show. What makes TLC's recent shows even worse is that they are making tons of money off of 'different' people. They have re-invented the circus freak show for television. Why do these people allow themselves to be exploited? Is 'fame' that attractive?Julie Martellnoreply@blogger.com
