Exiled? Forever?!
No, this would probably be too good to be true.
So I heard MTV had a new reality show spin off of My Super Sweet 16, and of course I ended up coming across it while awaiting last night's episode of I want to Work For Diddy (I've only seen a few episodes, but I tell you, it is "Quality").
Anywho, the new show is My Super Sweet 16 EXILED and yes, it is just as awful as I expected it to be. The concept of the show is that the parents of these girls are all so tired of their spoiled brat children, that they decide to send them off to remote parts of the world to "teach them a lesson" about the real world. Personally, I find the concept to be kind of insulting. They make it seem like living in these other countries is unbearable, that the people are uncivilized (e.g. One girl flips out when they eat a Guinea Pig in Peru; even I thought that was funny), and that the world revolves around the US of A.
I don't think I can sit through another episode. I am sure this is MTV's way of teaching their audience about the world and other cultures, but I find it to be heinous. Best case scenario: The girls get lost in their respective countries forever, and MTV doesn't offer them each their own reality shows.
