Lots of people dream of being on a reality tv show without thinking of the consequences.
Reality shows cause a lot of drama and stress due to the producers stirring up controversy
or coercing you into doing something in order to generate more views.
So let’s take a look at the top 10 reality shows that ruined peoples lives.
Alright starting us off in at number 10 we have Survivor.
A contestant on the show, Jeff Varner outed Zeke Smith as a transgender during a tribal
council in a disgusting attempt to paint him as a deceitful person.
It was a very shocking and controversial moment that caused the nation to hate and despise
Jeff Varner for his actions.
Once the episode aired, he was ridiculed on social media, receiving negative comments
and death threats.
He was eventually fired from his job and his life will never be the same.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition comes in at number 9.
This is a reality show where contractors and designers build a new home for less fortunate
families.
But I guess this is too good to be true because Bryan Okvath and his family were left with
a huge house that they could no longer afford.
On the episode, they were surprised when they saw that their bungalow house had been transformed
into a two story mansion.
However, they struggled for the next couple of years trying to keep up with their extreme
bills and high property taxes.
So the family was forced to sell their house and they even lost money in the sale.
Number 8 brings us to The real housewives of DC.
Charles Ommanney’s life was completely ruined after he appeared on this reality tv show.
This is a show that follows the lives of several rich and housewives who live extremely lavish
lifestyles.
Sounds like a dream, right?
Well for one of the stars of this TV series, it was the biggest mistakes of his life.
Due to the reputation of his wife while she appeared on the show, his career as a photo
journalist began to suffer.
He struggled to build professional relationships and everyone who watched this show hated him.
So it ultimately ruined his marriage and it cost him his job.
Teen Mom delivers in at number 7.
Ever since Amber Portwood has appeared on reality television at the age of 16, her life
has been put under a microscope.
The fame must’ve really gotten to her because she has had a tough time coping with drug
addiction, rehab and prison.
She was sentenced to five years in jail for drug possession charges and she has even been
filmed verbally and physically assaulting her daughters’ father on the reality show.
Things still have not improved for Amber.
She has now been diagnosed with Borderline Personality and Bipolar disorder and there
are reports of her meeting with a representative from Vivid Entertainment which is a porn company.
If she enters into the adult film industry, her life will no doubt take another drastic
turn.
Bachelor in paradise creeps in at number 6.
Earlier this year one of the contestants on the show, DeMario Jackson was in hot water
after a producer accused him of committing sexual assault with Corinne Olympios.
Both of them were reportedly drinking during the sexual encounter and the show was immediately
shut down in order to investigate the incident.
During this time, DeMario was painted as a villain and his character was attacked.
Even though the investigation concluded that it was not sexual assault, his reputation
is so damaged that he might not be able to recover from this.
A quick google search of his name will show you all of the sexual assault allegations
and it will be on the internet forever.
Now in at number 5 we are talking about The Swan.
This is a strange tv show where women will be judged by others and if they are seen as
“ugly” they are given an extreme makeover that includes several types of plastic surgery.
This seems like a terrible idea for a reality show.
I bet in the contract in very fine print it says, warning you will suffer from extreme
depression and worthlessness if you chose to participate, oh and you probably won’t
recognize yourself after all the surgeries.
Well for Lorrie Arias, this is exactly what happened.
She appeared on an episode of the swan but now she doesn’t leave her house except for
when she sees her therapist every few months.
After appearing on the show, she suffers from bipolar depression, agoraphobia which is fear
of crowds or being in public and body dysmorphic disorder.
Big Brother comes in at number 4.
This is a reality show where houseguests live together in a specially constructed house
that is isolated from the outside world.
Each week one member is voted out until one person is left standing.
They are constantly being recorded and watched 24/7.
One contestant on the show named Lesley Sanderson was portrayed as a villain and after she as
evicted from the show, she had a hard time coping with the real world.
She said, “Big Brother ruined my life and turned me into a hate figure.
I thought cocaine was the only way to block out the pain.
Before big brother, I never touched drugs.”
After the show she was raped, addicted to drugs and even tried to kill herself.
Now in at number 3 is Extreme Makeover.
In this reality show, people volunteer to have an extensive makeover in Hollywood.
These men and women have extreme makeovers that involve plastic surgery, extreme exercise
regimes, hairdressing and stylists.
Well for Deleese Williams, this whole experience for her was too much to handle.
When the producers were preparing for her episode, they coerced her family members to
verbally abuse her on camera.
They thought this would create more drama and more views.
The surgery was ultimately cancelled and poor Deleese felt depressed and she couldn’t
cope with the hurtful things that were said to her to she ended up committing suicide.
Drowning comes in at number 2.
Back in 2009 a contestant in a Pakistani reality show drowned on TV during a crazy stunt in
which he tried to swim across a lake while wearing a 15-pound backpack.
The man was screaming for help and the cast and crew rushed over to save him but unfortunately,
they weren’t fast enough.
His body was later discovered by rescue divers.
And in at number 1 we have a Uruguay reality tv show.
While filming an episode for this show, participants worked together in a test of strength challenge
in order to push and pull a locomotive train along a railway track.
They completed the task but they lost control of the train and it ran over twenty of the
contestants.
The runaway train killed seven people and injured a least 11, severing their limbs and
leaving them in excruciating pain.
There were even 3000 school children who were at this recording and witnessed the accident.
I’m sure they were left in a state of shock and they are probably scarred for life.
Well there you guys have it…
