'Pretty Wild' is Pretty Ridiculous

Home of the crazy reality shows, E! Network has debut their newest, trashy-yet-mesmerizing show, "Pretty Wild." The show premiered this month, Sunday nights at 10:30 p.m. right after the all new season of "Kendra." The show centers around a family of Hollywood socialites, particularly the three up-and-coming "celebrity" (or so they think they are) daughters. The girls, Tess, Alexis and Gabby are crazy, loud, provocative and are enough to give you a headache after 5 minutes of watching but for a TV junkie like myself, I cannot stop watching this show.

The mother, who used to be in Playboy Magazine, even says herself in the introduction of the first episode that she's getting back what she did to her mother by how erratically her daughters behave. Within the second episode the two older daughters, Tess and Alexis, have undressed in front of the cameras numerous times and bare all with no shame. The funny part about this is I googled the family after the first episode because I surprisingly had no idea who they were. What I found though, made my mouth drop open with shock. Tess and Alexis, who shamelessly bare their naked bodies are only 19 and 18 years old, respectively. Let's just say if I were to ever bare my body like that at a barely legal age, my mother would certainly not be giving me my own reality show but maybe a good kick in the butt would serve justice.

In the second episode of the show, it is finally revealed as to just why these girls are in fact "famous" or for better lack of terms have their own reality show. The middle sister, Alexis, is arrested by LAPD for burglarizing celebrity houses such as Rachel Bilson and Lindsay Lohan. Alexis is claiming to be innocent and that her "friends" dragged her name into it for no reason but evidence shows that some property stolen from the celebrities were found in Alexis's bedroom. It has yet to be decided in court whether or not she is found innocent or guilty.

Although this show is probably more ridiculous and trashy than MTV's "Jersey Shore," it is still something I can't stop myself from watching, although, just like "The Secret Life of the American Teenager," I always ask myself why I continue to watch this stupid show.

  1. Good subject and excellent execution. Good placement of links.
    You have so much going for you with your voice and writing, then you pull it down with wordiness. I've printed out this posting and I'm showing you where to drop words while keeping your snappy voice intact.
    You can move this from good to excellent. Yes you can.
