As a single girl living in the suburbs of Atlanta, I have a guilty pleasure of watching reality television in my spare time. As of now, seasons change, I am a fan of WAGS, Real Housewives of Atlanta, and Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta. If you haven't noticed by the titles of these shows, some type of intimate relationship or love is involved in the plot. First let me say, I have no plans or intentions to get married any time soon and my desire to have a boyfriend is nonexistent. Now with this being said, I am still interested in how one might find themselves in such a public relationship filled with some fame and a small fortune. Let’s be honest by no means are they wealthy. Their money is dependent on their relevancy. We all have watched Project Runway at one point in our life and Heidi Klum would always say, “One day you are in and the next day you are out.” So for all of you young aspiring reality stars looking for love, I researched and concluded on some tips to help you reach your goal of acquiring reality star fame. You can thank me now.
- Look the part: Honey, if your bank account says Forever 21, possibly clearance Forever 21, but casting wants a Salvatore Ferragamo chick, then it sounds like you will not be eating for a month.
- The Body: Keep it tight and get it right. Since you will be starving because you cannot afford to eat after spending money on Salvatore Ferragamo and Fendi ( don't be cheap), this tip shouldn't be hard. I mean, it is whats on the inside that matters. Not your character, you waistline and thigh gap.
- Morals: You don't need them. Don't know if you had them anyway but don't try and obtain them while on the show. The more ratchet or ghetto you act, the better. You need to make it to the next season or be promoted to an A list cast member. Those Salvatore Ferragamo, Fendi, and Chanel (don’t be cheap) bags will not pay for themselves.
- Single or nah: Now this one can be tricky because reality shows are known to end relationships. So you can either take someone else man on the show, be a mistress or stay single. Your choice. No judgment.
- Don’t be stupid: As much as I feel like I SHOULD NOT have to explain this let me explain. Don't be stupid. You will be on national television, control your stupidity.
- Fame: If you are lucky enough for your show to be successful after a first season or you join an already successful show, get ready for the backlash. You will need to acquire thick skin. Don’t get sensitive when someone calls you a slut or a racist. Although, all of the backlash will not be negative. Groupies and fans will exist. So go ahead get security and update your social media. You Are A STAR!
I hope these tips help you on your journey to a live lucrative love.
